Manual

[Kitten Tooth]

I need a Suzuki GS300L manual from any year, 82-85 works. I need the cylinder bore limits for a GS300L and maybe the torques for the cylindr head bolts. somebody said that the bore limit is 60.095(2.3659 in)
I asked my mechanic and he said that that didn't seem right.
Just send me a PM with the detail and ill get back to you

Thanks,
KT

Hi,

I'll get right on it. That's not a common bike. In the meantime....

To begin with your pistons are 62mm. So 60.095 for the bore limit is way off. I will try and get back with the information that you are after. What size are the head bolts -- 8mm?

The bore wear limit is 62.095mm. So the 0.095mm wear equates to 3 1/2 thou" or 0.0037". The section of the bore with the greatest wear is going to be about 1/4 to 1/2" down from the top of the cylinder where the piston rocks to change direction from upward stroke to downward stroke. Good luck.

P.S. If you need another set of pistons. Oversize or whatever, then the 650 pistons are the same as yours.

Thanks you all!!!

If you are looking for manuals and can't find them here try http://www.e-classicbike.com/

Stephen is located in New Zealand but he is a pleasure to deal with and he can likely provide what you need. I was looking for a manual for the 82 Katana and he was able to provide me with a reprint of the factory manuals for all 80 to 83 750 series GSs including mine. Total cost shipped to Canada $50.

He also asked me to mention, he has a lot of manuals for Hondas if anyone is looking.

Cheers all,

Sounds like a great service; how do they afford that?

[chuck hahn]

your $50.00 INVESTMENT is what prompted me to relay it yet again..When i got my blue one in my album pics all i knew was it was a Suzuki and the VIN..When i called they told me it was manufactured in August of 76..I hope anyone seeing this post will store the number in their cell phones, address books, wherever and just pass it along anytime they can think to.. And your welcome and MERRY XMAS

Posplayr...probably not many people know about it...I even offered the gal to pay for them. I got one for my 77 750 and my78 750. Took about 2 weeks to arrive..remeber folks youre only gonna get what you are savy enough to ask about..Think your situation thru and what specifically you wanna ask and then fire away.

[mriddle]

You are kidding us right ?

I have bought 4 or 5 manuals already

[chuck hahn]

not at all MIke..You know me..do you think i would yank the brotherhoods chain on this...LOL. Like i said i got two out in the garage from them for my bikes..Your VIN and ask anything you can think of asking..might not get an answer to everything but they sure do try..

[mriddle]

That is awesome !

[chuck hahn]

You saw pics of both of my bikes..Where do you think i got 31 year old paint codes from????? they are both the original colors for each bikes. I know this because when i got them they had opriginal paint on them but severely faded and cracked..Told them what colors they were and they gave me paint codes right over the phone !!!
