81 GS750 Airbox.....

[Anonymous]

I recently acquired an '81 GS750E. Not being familiar with this bike I think part of the airbox is missing. I have the part (box) which mounts to the carbs but isn't there another part (box) which houses the airfilter and connects to the first box? Or am I just assuming wrong and some type of round airfilter connects to the box on the carbs? Photos would be a great help!

Thanks!

There is a round, paper element filter that plugs into the rear of the airbox with the carb induction tubes on the front face of that airbox. Then there is another plastic box on the back of the carb airbox that covers the paper element filter and there is a screw down lid on top of that that gives access to the filter element.

That's what I was thinking. I'm missing these parts.

Thanks again!!

If the parts off of a GS1100E will fit I have them. I can send them to you for the price of postage and a 12 pack of Diet Pepsi.
