1982 Suzuki GS 650 GT - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Probably the stater or rectifier

The other line goes to the fuel gauge overflow right next to the petcock vacuum line on the tank. Big nipple on petcock goes to fuel line leading between carb 2 and 3. Small nipple on petcock goes to the brass nipple on the front of carb number 2. The other hose hooks up to the nipple coming from the fuel sending unit and routes down below the battery and ends. It's there in case the fuel sending unit leaks the hose will route the gasoline away from a hot engine instead of pouring out right on top of it. The nipple to the fuel sending unit should be positioned pointing directly at the petcock on the bottom of the tank. In case you don't know what I mean by sending unit it's the big round circle on the left side of the bottom of the tank with 2 wires coming from it.

i moved you out of cars and trucks, do head lamps work? that be first. then fuses i guess no kick start, right? sad missing that, id never own one. owned over 50 motorcycles. all gone now. from 1963 to now. the the battery if head lamps are ok batter is next. or the push button failed. or wiring failed. a voltmeter used finds this fast. got one? never try to fix cars or mc, lacking at least a Volt meter or pay others at $100 hr, to do it.

thats a bit too dangerous dissasemble the main steering pivot sections on the forks inspect the bolt and bearings yoke for damage check the shocks while there replace with new parts

As it is an across the frame engine, the cylinders are numbered from left to right as you sit on the bike. So, number one is outside left clutch lever end, number 2 inside left, 3 is inside right and 4 is outside right brake lever end.

Rule of thumb ground first then power. Cold before hot. Refer to resetting computer verify no charred electrical wiring near harnesses and water collection areas. Seal compartments as needed. Repair electrical allow proper idling then remove battery for 15 min for computer diagnostics of changes repeat until proper idle. Replace battery if not correct OEM replacement or load damage.

Carbs will probably need cleaning out. Modern fuel goes off and blocks jets.

Mike you say you ran down the wiring and the ignition was not touched.Correct? The coils generate spark but you need a source to draw from. Check your stator to make sure it is not fielded(Grounded) with a bad wire.Battery up to par. CDI box or points and condenser check out. All of these will cause no spark to be generated .Spark Plugs check? before you replace the CDI box rule everything else first. Fuses for ignition will also not allow spark.Kill switch grounded out. Ignition switch ok. Check the flow of continuity .Coils should register between 0.5 and 0.4 . 4.0 is bad. repair manual is a must for this . Libiary is a good place to find 1

take the plugs out and see if you have a spark get back to me

awsome

change your voltage regulator and if that dont work its the stator

change the voltage regulator

1. To correctly fix this the carbs will have to be removed from the rubber spigots completely and moved out of the way.2. finish unscrewing the loosened screws and remove the rubber spigots and make sure to note which way they go so that they can be put back on the same way.3. clean the back of the rubber spigots with laquer thinner or acetone and let dry for a few minutes. Also clean the head surface that the spigot attaches to.4. apply a thin layer of gasket maker rtv or other suitable rtv to the back of the spigots and tighten them back down to the head.5. wipe the extra rtv from inside and outside of the rubber spigot where it comes out of the mating surfaces.Re-attache the carb and adjust the idle if needed.If the rubber spigots are not sealed and tightened down, they can cause varying idle, popping throught the intake and exhaust pipe, hard starting, and bogging

12 Volts + a little is correct. Check your terminals and have the battery checked at parts house. Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/william_c9458c4c1f94e482

Hi , start by putting the byke on its central stand or other device, in order to get rear wheel on the air
engage on 4th or 5th gear and try turn the engine by turning the wheel (better without sparkplugs)
if it turns ok without noticeble strange noises, then put the sparkplug back and try ( ask a friend for help) to push it dow the road in 2nd gear
at this point i'm assuming that everything else has been checked (petrol, spark oil level,etc)
good luck,

Check that fuel is coming from the fuel pipe before the carbs.
If not , your fuel tap / filter may be blocked.

If should get fuel with full choke...If not you have plugged jets, a bad vacuum leak, or the float level is set too low...

when you turn the key the button should slide back then lift

the filiments in the light bulbs may be broken and shorting accross the marker and turn signals. replace light bulbs.
