    Anyone have "Haynes GS550 & 750 Fours" manual? Need 77-79 GS750 carb info

    Does anyone have a copy of this Haynes Manual???





    I'm trying to put together a more complete spec listing of all the various GS750 (& 850/1000) VM26 carbs and the various jets and needles and settings.
    I found this on from the 850 Fours Haynes, and it was really helpful and cleared up a little bit of erroneous information for me:

    Why not look up the info in the Suzuki factory manuals? It's always better to get the info from the source, rather than copied by a second party. There is also a carb sticky with a bunch of this same info so you might want to look there too.

      You need something that is not in the factory manual?

        Good point, I suppose I was just trying to take a shortcut and find all the info compiled in one place. It would still be nice to see that to compare, but I will have to check all info against the Factory Service Manuals before I stand behind it 100%.

        I am looking for more info that is unlisted for some model variations of the 750, particularly the 78 GS750C and 79 GS750N - which use the needles and some needle jets that the GS850 and 1000 use, not to mention the mystery 45013 GS750 carbs that I have, as well as filling in some missing blanks such as the slide cutaway, etc.

        Here are the adjustments and additions I have made so far to the chart. I just cut and pasted the GS models that use the VM26, and added separate Pilot Fuel Screw and Pilot Air screw columns as well as matching up engine #'s to some of the carb ID's/models:



        Factory Service Manual specs would also be really helpful if anyone wants to jump in here. jets and needles I can find just from searching "1979 GS750C 5DL36-2" or similar and I can pull up the Suzuki exploded parts view on many parts suppliers' websites. The service manuals contain more detailed info that I can't find anywhere else. Thanks

            sorry if I wasn't clear, I was just hoping someone could take a photo of the spec page like I posted for the gs850 manual.

            if I didn't already have 2 factory service manuals and the clymers manual, plus the same for 77-79 gs550's, I might be interested in another manual. I'm sure you could probly sell it on the classifieds on this site though.

                    I have all three manuals (factory, Haynes, Clymer) for the 850, if you need alternate opinions on the settings.

                    BassCliff has a bunch of manuals, some are factory, some are Hanyes, some are Clymer.

                      Thanks for the scan, that confirms some numbers for me. I would really like to figure out where you get the info that includes the carb ID#. The 1976 factory service manual has a lot of info that the others don't, but I guess the best I could do aside from that is to just look up parts schematics for specific model bikes and confirm all of the jet sizes, air jet, needle jet, pilot, main, slide cutaway, etc. I have to dig through my Clymer's this week and see if it shows anything different, but I don't think it does. Finding other versions of the Factory Service Manual may. I would especially like to know more info on the 78 GS750C and 79 GS750N engines and carbs, or at least confirm the numbers that I have for them.
