triple clamps

[EDGECRUSHER]

Just wondering if GSXR steering stems and triple clamps will transfer to an 83 GS750Es type steering head.

yep! suzuki has kept using the same size stem and bearings right up to the current Busa.

depending on the year of the gixxer front end, some minor grinding for clearance may, MAY be required, but it is a pretty simple swap.
later model gixxer forks do tend to be shorter though.

Thanks.
That's what I thought.
Seeing as my 750 is such a lard ass, do you suggest using 1100/1000 forks??

Triple clamps

Speaking of Triple clamps. I just recently purchased a 1982 GS 1100e. I have been disassembling it and on the triple clamps there is a small oil line that crosses from one side to the other above the lower clamps. What is this and how do I remove the rings that the line connects? The clamps are easy but the two rings connected by the little oil line seem to be very tight and I don't won't to ruin anything.

Thanks,
Turtle

Those are the lines that air up the forks. As far as removing the rings, I don't remember ever taking the forks off so I can't help ya there.
Sorry
