Help identifying tank

[tukn20s]

Can anyone tell me if this is a stock tank for a 1981 GS750? If not, what it might be off? Thanks for the help.

Looks like an '81 GS750E tank to me.

What are the differences between the L, E, etc?

DEFINATELY an "L" tank.. the back drops off to fast for an 80-81 1100E/750E tank.

Tank Identified

I don't know what all that other stuff is but I know that the tank is from a 1982-83 GS750T (TEE Model)... see my photo albums. Do I get a prize???

Thanks for the help guys. I didn't realize there are differences in the sheetmetal between models.

Does anyone know how this tank compares in size to a 78 GS750 tank?

MUCH smaller...

What are you looking for exactly? I have a couple of 750 tanks i pounded knee inserts into Id be willing to part with. They need to be finished, but if you're doing a project, might be perfect for ya..

[tukn20s]

I have a 78 750 project I picked up. It has a stock tank which I like the style of, but need something slightly smaller. The bike is stripped down to the basics, so it makes the tank look too large for the bike. That tank I posted is different in style, but I thought that it look pretty good.

I still might trying sectioning the stock tank, but it would be much easier if I found something smaller that worked.

What you looking to get out of the tanks?

It sure does look like the 750T tank. It even has the small notches at the rear of the tank for the side covers. It doesnt look like the L model has that. http://engelcycles.com/SuzukiGS750T_1982.jpg

Oh hell, I dunno. maybe $50 for the pair plus shipping? They need the smoothing out and massaged, but they're pretty close to done as far as the body work goes. I just lost interest. I'll dig em out of the attic and get some pics up as soon as I can

[tukn20s]

what year 750?

[TheCafeKid]

77-79 just like yours
