Gs750 frame v gs1000 frame?

[wraith]

Hi all,

Does anybody know what the differences are between the gs750 and gs1000 frames?

Is the main cradle tubeing the same size and swing arm pivot points the same size ?

If I remember you can swop the gs750 and 1000 swing arms about as well as the gsx et ones?

The gs 1000 lump is physically much shorter than the 750 so I'd expect the cradle on the 750 to be larger than the thou. Can't remember if theres any thing in it in the swingarms but knowing Suzuki they'll probably change over without problem

As stated above, the 750 had a kick start, so the frame was built to accommodate the mechanism, the 1000 wasn't. Also the top tube is shorter - so a 1000 tank is longer than a 750 one, by about 1/2 inch.
