    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hello. Thinking about buying an engine. I need to know the year of it. The serial number is GS750-61551
 
Don't know if this wil help you but my 77 750 was manufactured Sept 76 and has engine number 17168 and my 78 750 was manufactured May 78 and has engine number 72445. My guess would be that it's from a 78 model year bike.
 
The engine number you have quoted comes from a 1978 GS750C model.
 
Thank you for the replies. Next question, are the 1977 and 1978 models interchangeable? I have a 77 model that has bad rings, wondering if I could just swap in a 78 engine? Thanks.
 
Yes. Not a problem.
