    450 fork compatability

    I have a 1983 GS 450 E and am in need of a lower fork tube for the left side. What year/model 450 forks can I use that would be a direct replacement? The fork is the only thing holding me up from having the bike ready for my 17 year old son.

    Hi Mr. 12Bravo,

    Do you mean the lower (outer) tube on the left side (as you sit on the bike), part no. 51140-44170-291? The following will also fit:

    GS450E (1983)
    GS450ET (1980)
    GS450ET (1981)
    GS450ET (1982)
    GS450EX (1980)
    GS450EX (1981)
    GS450EX (1982)
    GS450EZ (1980)
    GS450EZ (1981)
    GS450EZ (1982)
    GS450ST (1980)
    GS450ST (1981)
    GS450ST (1982)
    GS450SX (1980)
    GS450SX (1981)
    GS450SX (1982)

      Thanks so much for the information. Now I will be able to get the bike going for my son. I will get some pictures of the bike once its fixed. Still don't know if my son wants to leave it stock or turn it into a cafe racer.
