    Windshield/flyscreen recommendation?

    Hmmm ok, I was thinking I'd have to go bigger but maybe that would be enough.

    Windshield/flyscreen recommendation?

    I actually like that one a lot, reminds of some of the older Hondas. It looks like that just mounts in to places to the headlight bracket, correct me if I'm wrong. Does that seem solid enough to you? The last thing I'd want is that thing ripping off on the interstate and smacking me in the face...

    Windshield/flyscreen recommendation?

    Does anyone have a recommendation for an aftermarket windshield for an 82 gs750t? I'd like it to be something on the smaller side, not too big just big enough to keep the wind off me mainly. I'd prefer it be something that could be easily removed as I'd only really need it when I take the bike...

    Will prime work with reserve fuel level?

    So I'm curious if the prime setting will also work when the fuel level is too low for the on position, and only the reserve position works? On an 82 750

    On/off switch for headlight, taillight

    You seem to be illiterate, do you see anywhere that anyone asked about insurance or pulling fuses? You've got something wrong with your brain

    On/off switch for headlight, taillight

    Sounds like the fuse to your brain has been pulled

    On/off switch for headlight, taillight

    I wonder what year they eliminated the switch altogether because my 82 doesn't have it

    On/off switch for headlight, taillight

    Yeah I don't like it either, especially with all the troubleshooting I've had to do it's annoying to have it on constantly. I had it where I was having trouble with it stalling and the first time I started it after rebuilding the carb I let it idle for like 5 minutes and then went inside and...

    On/off switch for headlight, taillight

    Right lol, I'd imagine that's a sought after feature in the crotch rocket crowd. That along with their flip up license plates. I'm wondering if anyone with a tscc era gs has wired in a switch like your older one has.

    On/off switch for headlight, taillight

    Has anyone wired in an on/off switch for the headlight and taillight? Not a fan of them always being on anytime the ignition on my 82 750t is on

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    Your comment about the levers rattling did get me thinking about it possibly being something peripheral instead of the motor though so thanks!

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    Haha yep it definitely was disturbingly loud, I put off even looking at it for days because I was dreading it being something bad.

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    Thanks I appreciate that, yep I should've thought of the simple stuff first, I've got years of experience working on cars but none working on motorcycles so it's definitely a bit more of a learning curve than other vehicles I've bought. I'm just relieved that something simple and that I'll be...

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    Ha true. That's too bad they broke completely like that, I hope you were able to find new shields for not too much money, I was able to get the middle section of pipes off of ebay for pretty cheap as mine were totally rusted out. That might be a good place to look for some used ones.

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    Well I used my stethoscope and figured out where the rattle is coming from. Not a loose timing chain, or a catastrophic engine failure, but a...wait for it...loose exhaust heat shield lol. I psyched myself out for nothing. It sounded like it was coming from the top of the engine and then with...

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    I'll try that and use my stethoscope and report back

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    I looked for anything loose but couldn't find anything. I have an automotive stethoscope I'll have to try and pinpoint where it's coming from

    GS750 engine noise at high rpm

    I removed the worm gear and the sound was still present. One of the videos was taken with it removed I checked the valve lash a couple months ago and everything was good. The cam chain looked normal, I didn't pull the tensioner. I've had the bike for just over a year and put about 500 miles on...
