'77-'79 GS750 8V Fours with Mikuni VM26 Mechanical Slide Carbs

This is the first gen GS750 with the VM26 mechanical slide carbs. Every model listed here will interchange physically, but setting will change and different tuning parts will cause issues if not properly identified. I expect these bikes to have the wrong carb and have to always make sure to ID them correctly and make sure they have proper parts installed.  When properly set-up these bikes are great and run great and can be very dependable.

Starting in '71 Suzuki started year coding bikes in the last letter used in the name. You may see this code on your bikes paperwork or in a parts list or catalog.  I leave this off as it is redundant if you are showing the year anyway. There is a chart below to find your year code.

Below is a set of '77 GS750 45011 carbs with the carb mounted lever choke, and a couple of pictures of the later version that use a cable operated choke.  These GS750 carbs are hard to tell apart so they are commonly mixed in both parts and mounted models. They have a stamped number on the diamond shaped area where the body mounts to the main mounting bracket so they can be easily identified. The different models have internal tuning changes so care must be taken to assemble them with all the correct parts.
