    1980 GS750L rebuild

    Right before Christmas I picked up an old beat up GS750 L It would run on starting fluid but not from the tank. So I figured I would show you all what I have been doing.

    This is what it looked like when I brought it home and took off the seat and tank.

      The Tank was so full of loose rust it was not flowing so I started there ended up using the Kreem Combo Pack now it is cleaned and sealed.

        Figured I might as well keep going on the Tank so started the repainting.

                      The pads were in OK shape so I am leaving them on for now and the master cylinders seem to be working fine so no work there.

                          The PO had used a shake can to paint most of the exposed bike ( flat black) so it has been fun getting that off of everything, but I am now in a holding pattern until it get warm enough to go out and pull the handle bars and other parts.

                          Working on the Carbs now waiting on the gaskets for the floats and a new screw set to come in. Pictures to follow

                            and intake Orings, and the stainless steel fasteners as well
