I remember chateau.murray.takethisout(a)dsl.pipex.com (The Older Gentleman) saying something like: >Anyone here got an old Suzuki GS1000? Desperate to pick someone's >brain... Apart from the chain/shaft issue, they're enginely brothers to the 850s; is it a mechanical query? -- Dave GS850x2 XS650 SE6a Teach a man to fish and he and his pikey mates will have the river cleaned out in a day.

I've owned both the GS850 and GS1000 and I thought the 850 was developed from the 750. I can remember the comments in the mags at the time. In fact a bit of Googling shows things like the cam cover gaskets are the same for the 750 & 850, but not the 1000. OTOH this was some 25+ years ago so my memory could be playing tricks. Mike |
