76 gs750 rear drum?

[Anonymous]

Hello list member,
After missing my 78 GS1000 that I sold a couple of years ago, I have found a 76 GS750. It has a rear drum brake. Can anyone verify if this brake is correct?
Thanks,
Doug

This old ad in the link above shows a disc. The wheel could be off of a GT750 (Water Buffalo) which did have a drum in the rear.

Rear wheel could be off a 550, the GS750 has allways had a rear disc, I have a magazine with the very first test in Japan of the 750 and it's discs all around.

No in the mid 70's the "T" model had a single disc in the front and a rear drum brake.

I was talking about the 2-valve models, sorry. I knew about the "T". Don't you mean mid eighties?
