Cylinder head studs

[Guest]

I have a 78' GS 750 and I cannot find the cylinder head studs for the 4 center (tallest) ones for sale. I have tried suzuki dealers and the computer says they no longer make them. Any help in finding them would be helpful since three of them I had to cut to get the head off.

Parts Wanted Forum. Shouldn't be hard to find them. Lots of GS'ers have parts engines laying about. The 850 uses the same parts. The parts show as still available from Suzuki too, so where did you get the info that they are discontinued?

I have some in a old 850 parts bike, if I can get them out you can have them cheap. terrylee

Studs still available from Suzuki, take the part #'s in with you.
Don't rely on "parts guy", standard answer for these old bikes,
"Sorry, no longer available"

hey all thanks for the reply. When I went to the parts counter I looked with him and the 78' GS750 (E) showed they were no longer available. The other 750's were. So the first question since I do not have the other model is will the inner 8 studs fit my engine? My engine uses the 4 outer studs different length and the 4 inner studs (the ones that rust for some reason) are the longest of all the studs. I had to cut three of them to get the head off. These are the studs for some reason are different length. The other gs 750 show all 8 are the same length. any thoughts

Go here...http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm

Look up the part numbers. You will see there has been some supercession, but any of the parts in the chain will work.

Go back to your dealership guy and tell him to get the parts, or order online. Boulevard Suzuki is one of the forum favorites.

EDIT:

Part# 09108-10112 Outer

Part# 09108-10027 Inner

Same parts are shared with the GS100

They rust because they are outdoors, exposed to weather, water, sand and salt.
The others are not.

Looks like you would be needing number 2 here: http://www.partsoutlaw.com/oemparts/...4e14b/cylinder While you are getting those you might as well go to the cylinder head page and order all new nuts and the special washers too.

Come to think of it, I may have some spares. How about post up the length and I'll take a look...

the Stud length is 6 9/16 from the head, plus the thread length that goes into the head of course.

Stud bolts

Guys the length of my studs that I need is 6 9/16 from the head to the end. All other studs are shorter. I checked with other Suzuki dealers and I cannot find the GS 750 (E) only I see EC ED and they all show 8 studs equal length. take a look at my pic's and see.

Go to photobucket. Copy the IMG link. Paste link here and the photo shows up. Do you know how to copy and paste?

BTW, I have two studs, not three. Total length is 7 9/16" end to end.
