      Looks like a "78" GS750E with lower bars, SS brake lines. Didn't the "E"'s have emblems that say GS750E & a stepped seat? I just looked at a parts diagram & it shows the same part # for the seats on the GS750 "B", "C", "EC", "N", & "EN". That ain't right,.... is it? I remember the stepped "E" model seats looked & felt a lot better than the standard flat GS750 seat

        When I die, just cremate me and put me in my GS tank. That way I can go through these carbs, one more time!https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/core/images/smilies/cool.png

            The bike in the video looks like it has the correct seat to me...they weren't stepped..least not in Canada anyway

              I believe the US "E" models had the stepped seat. At least the 3 that I have owned over the years have all had it!

              Probably like a lot of Suzuki models, something was changed for different parts of the world.

                After a lot of digging, I think I've found the emblems on the frame covers were "GS750" for the "B", "C", "EC", & "N" models. the emblems that have "GS750"E" started with the "79" GS750 "EN". Still digging into the seat thing, Suzuki has used 3 or 4 different part #'s for the 2 seats in question. So far all the pictures I've found (U.S. Models) if a GS750 has spoked wheels it has a flat seat, if it has cast wheels, it has a stepped seat. Pictures from bikespecs.com, motorcycle specs.com, & Suzuki.org. Of course there are personal pictures of Spoked wheel models with "E" model seats as well as standard bikes that have had cast wheels added.

                  CMSNL shows separate emblems, one with the "E" and one without. '78 GS750EC.
                  My AU spec 750EC has the "E" emblem and flat seat.

                    Great video! Thanks for sharing.
                    And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
                    Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!
