    Are 750EZ and 850ES frames the same?

    I've got a 1982 GS750E, looking at parts from a 1983 GS850E

    Would the engine guards line up the same?

        I think the 1983, would have been an 850G "D", The 850G "E" should be a 1984 model.

            That would actually be a 1983 GS 750 "ESD". Go to the home page & click on Model imformation. A short read, but explains nearly everything.

              Lots of pretty X's on the Model info page but it does not answer my question. Was there a frame change from the 1982 750 to the 1983 750?

                The 1983 750 was all new; '82 is dual shock and '83 is mono shock among other things.
