    Interchangable model question

    Hey everyone,

    I currently am rebuilding a 1978 GS750. Is the 1977 GS750 E interchangeable? Id like to be able to use what ever is the better part between the two. I just want to know from others experiences if the two are pretty close in identity. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    I just bought a 78 GS750 recently and have been looking up parts quite a bit. I didn't know they made an E model in '77. The parts fiches I've seen don't show it.

    If you look at a parts fiche, 77-79 GS750's are grouped together with only a couple differences between the models. Boulevard Suzuki's is here: http://www.boulevardsuzuki.com/fiche...1978&fveh=2133

    A couple of the categories have different parts, but for the most part they match up.

      Most of the engine parts are consistent, but the carb settings for 1977 differ slightly from those in 1978-79. Not sure if the carb bodies themselves are different.

      Also, the 1978-79 models had mag wheels and dual-disc front brakes. I think the 1979 tank might come with a sending unit and fuel gauge, but that might not be until 1980.

        Thanks for the reply,

        someone posted an ad on Kijiji and listed it as a 77 GS750E, Ive come to learn that people dont post the most accurate info, as I found an exact bike as mine (78 GS750) and in my home town on Kijiji and it was posted as an 84!!! WTF!!! lol

        Im in middle of doing a custom rebuild and looking for a parts bike. Ill just keep looking for my model.

        Thanks man
