77 GS 750 tank options

[Greenmachine]

Just picked up a neglected 77 GS 750 and the tank is rusted out. Do any tanks from different models fit without modification to the frame? If so what models should I look for?

Thanks

I would stick with the GS750 tank, several on Ebay right now. Wait a couple of weeks for the right one to come along. Do not Frankenstein it, putting a L gas tank on it

I got one that has been stripped and all the body work done on it. Inside is spotless and all it will need is repainted. Will take 50.00 and you pay shipping. No petcok though. Has gas cap.

Hi Mr. Greenmachine,

Let me share some GS lovin'.


Parts Cross-Reference Procedure - using a couple of our favorite online resources.

1. Start here:

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

2. Find your bike by year and model. Select the part you wish to reference.

3. Identify the part number, right-click and copy the part number.

4. Then use Babbit's cross-reference utility here:
http://www.babbittsonline.com/pages/...1/default.aspx

5. In the pull-down menu labeled "Brands", select "Suzuki".

6. Right-click and paste the part number copied from alpha-sports into the line labeled "Search for".

7. Click "Quick lookup".

You are then presented with every model that the referenced part will fit.



Anyway, I just stopped by to welcome you to the forum in my own, special way.

Thanks for the help. I was able to find a tank locally. The links you provided should prove to be very useful.

Early 850 tank will pop straight on - just looks a bit bulbous (though not too out of proportion).
