1981 Suzuki 750L. Wont start properly
Sounds like the battery you have in the bike has gone bad sence you have to jump start it all the time. And yes the bike will run bad cause the cdi need a good voltage to work correctly. Get new one and put in new asid in and put it on the charger till it is fully charged and you should be good to go.
I was riding my 1981 Suzuki GS 750 L Motorcycle
Wow! Without a lot more information (and there may not be anymore) I would have to say your isse is electrical in nature, unless the bike spit and sputtered before cutting out. If the bike just shut off like someone turned the key off, then... check for power through to your ignition, check your kill switch, check from the battery out. No there is not a single "oh this is the problem answer". You have an electrical issue, this means a short, bad fuse, bad relay, a loose connection, and or a bad switch. you will have to go through the circuit till you find where power stops. check and see if you are getting fire to the plugs first. Please post your findings here so we can try and get to the bottom of the issue. good Luck.

I have a 1982 850L that has either a wiring
seems to be a bit high thinking that it should only be about 14v or so at its highest point. I would lean towards the reg/rect as this is the most likely culprit under these circumstances.
Carberater is running to lean
with the engine ticking over find the mixture screw and turn it slowlyclockwise,if you need a manual for this bike go on carl salter.com where there is loads of motorcycle manuals for free download
Oil and fuel leaking out air filter housing, won't stay running
gasket not possible the thing it could be is floats on a carb is too low so it is filling with fuel and leaking out off carb back through the air filter the way to test for this is to clean the airfilter and just leave the bike for a couple day then go see if the air filters is wet again get back to me once done
I have a simular problem to (By ithacaautomo on
See which plugs are running good (cream to light brown) color look at the other carbs. make sure you have no cracked rubber or flat o- rings or other vacuum leaks. You will need vacuum syncronizer or a set of good vacuum gauges to balance the carbs properly. If there is a filter it will be between the tank and the carbs. you might want to pull the valve and screen out of the gas tank, and make sure everything is clean and in good shape.

1986 suzuki gs450, starter selanoid clicks,
if the bike start by pushing it , i believe that your battery would be at fault and not your selonoid .
the solonoid can be tested by arching the terminals with a spare battery but make sure the main battery is unplugged .
Also , try to push your bike in gear for a few metres and try to start it after as your starter motor could be sticking .
try this first before going to buy anything and let me know how you go .
Be very careful to disconnect your battery first
Keep recharging battery,bike keeps bogging down
I had the same issues. Are you loosing acceleration?
My savage had a clogged muffler. Dump some seafoam and stabilzer in the tank with etlenol treatment in it.
Bad gas??? Put some 91 in it.
Can you jump a 12 volt suxuki gs750 with a car
yes, but you must do it at the battery under the seat, be very carefull to not cross the jumper cables, if u do u will destroy the electical system, another thing DON'T run the bike with a dead battery, u will burn out the alternator stator and the voltage regualator very quickly, it is a very poor design, have owned many suzuki bikes since the 70's, had this very same bike, then bought a GS1100, same problems with charing system, they corrected it with the 1990 model's
The motor idles fine on my 1978 Suzuki gs750 but
It could be a clogged jet on your carburetor, it could also be varnishing in the float bowl possibly making the float stick.
Try cleaning out the carb with carb cleaner and blowing the jets with air, not too much air pressure.
Where is the oil drain plug location on a 82
On the left side near the bottom of the casing. Be sure to install a new oil filter and to remove and clean the oil pressure switch.
Can I get a “very helpful” rating on this answer?
