GS850 Exhaust Valve
Hi Guys I managed to break one of the exhaust valves on my head. Can anyone tell me if the GS750 valves are interchangeable. Thanks WayneTags: None

Yes, the valves are the same (8V engines of course). You can check stuff like this by using one of the various on-line parts fishe - compare the part numbers. http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htmEd
To measure is to know.

Just keep in mind that, while Alpha is a great place to cross-reference parts, they are one of the (if not THE) most expensive sources of parts out there.
Example:
Alpha is asking $62.79 for that valve. (part number 12912-45021)
G&S Suzuki says that retail is $57.50 and they are asking for $42.44.
If you are interested in a good used valve, let me know, I have a few here from a head that I stripped down.
I just noticed that you are in the UK, so shipping might outweigh some of the savings, so try to source one locally.
