#1 Unread post by army21b »

Hey everyone I just got back from over seas and bought my first bike. It's a 1982 Suzuki GS 750. this is my first bike and I wanna learn as much as I can and do some modifications on it. First and formost I would like to either paint new pinstriping on or just make it one solid color some of the orange and red pinstriping is pealing. How do I go about doing that? Are there decal pinstriping or do I pinstripe it myself with the right paint? Any other I deas for the look would be great pictures would be appreciated too. Also any ideas for what else I can do to the bike mechanical, electric whatever. I would love the ideas. I just need to get started thanks.[/b]

I've got an 82 750T and loved it when it was running! (stupid carbs!) You can find out more than you ever wanted to know about the GSs over at the GS Resources.

Try looking here for the GS Resources page.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Oops! :oops: edited the link, works now.

The electrical on the older Suzuki's isn't all that great, you might want to check that out.
Otherwise, I can't hink of anything off-hand.
