    Interchangeable parts question

    I have a 79 gs1000 that needs a donor bike. I have found a decent shape 79 gs750 for short money. Basically i want the donor bike for the carbs which i have found should be the same 26mm vms, what I wondering though is if the seat, calipers, and other misc parts are the same. Any input would be appreciated because I NEED the carbs but getting all the other little things would have me on the road in a day.

    The carbs will fit, but the jetting is different. The calipers should work also, but the seat and body work wont. I don't know what misc parts you're talking about. You may need more than just carbs. Valve clearances, points......

      The carbs were my main concern as one of mine is NG. everything else would have just been extra. Maybe I will just part the rest out.

        You need a VM carb body?

        Several people, including me, have extras
