    New to this site Susuki gs 850 g

    Hey guys and gals. This summer became a proud owner of a 1982 GS 850G, 1038 true miles on it.This bike was owned by an older gentleman, who sadly passed away, having no wife or children. His estate was auctioned off, and I was the lucky top bidder.
    This bike has sat in his heated garage all this time. The last date of registration was 2005.
    The carbs were gummed up with " varnish ", I cleaned them but then had to have a mechanic tank them for rebuild. He bench synced them but had no time to dynamic sync them. Any help would be appreciated, a sync gauge ? The water bottle sync gauge ?

    Sounds like a great find and welcome to the GSR.

    There is tons of good info to be had on this site...http://members.dslextreme.com/users/bikecliff/

    Number one way to get help though is using the search feature on this site here or use google with the added detail of "site:www.thegsresources.com" included.

    Yes, you need to do a vacuum sync job. The Carb Tune tool is the best on the market these days.

    To measure is to know.

      Thanks for the comment. Was the knee stitching the result of bicycle or motorcycle, looks sore ?
      Now is winter so have time to search for the signals and headlight bucket I need, as mine came with Susuki hard bags and a Vetter fairing.

                mb,

                And do tell us about Suzuki hardbags on an 850G.

                FOr pictures, best way is to have pictures on some picture hosting site, like Photobucket or other, then that site provides the "IMG code" that you cut-n-paste into the posting. Is a few different ways to do that, and long detailed description for each way.

                .
