    Hi the finish on a 1978 GS750 side panel + Tank stickers/decals question.

    Hi Guys - thanks for letting me join - i've always loved GS's and have had quite a few.
    So:
    Is the side panel finish the same as the tank (as in Gloss- if tank is black) or is it more 'satin' finish?
    I'm repainting tank, side panels and tail-piece this week you see.
    Mines is a UK 1978 in what i guess is Suzuki Space Black
    I want to fit the original colour decals/Stickers on the tank and tail piece.
    I'm assuming either blue or red ... is that correct?
    Anyone know who can supply these in the UK
    Thanks in advance.

    The side covers were more of a satin finish. The tank was gloss.

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

          For tank stripe colours; when I google "1978 GS750" there are lots of images of red ones and blue ones but some black ones too. Some black ones have red/gold stripes and some have blue/gold stripes.

          Blue/gold

          Red/gold
