What EXACTLY is it doing to make you think it isn't getting fuel? This model does not have a separate fuel filter. The fuel tap on actual tank, (the petcock), has a gauze filter built into it inside the tank. These can sometimes clog up over time especially if it's had bad gas through it or it's been stood for a while. When was the last time the Carbs were serviced? This could be as simple as a dirty fuel jet or a dirty/worn needle. If your going to clean the gauze filter make absolutely sure the tank is empty BEFORE you remove any fuel lines or the petcock. I found that an old, stiff bristle toothbrush works well to clean the gauze.

Can only be compression to low or no fuel being allowed to motor. why did you change all the electric items did it have no spark at plug ??? Anyhow safe to say ignition is fine as all is replaced but worth confirming you have spark at plug (turn motor over with plug out and see if sparks) before we assume its compression or fuel delivery issue.when you have plug out cover the plug hole with finger to seal it best you can and turn over motor couple of times if you can keep it sealed or nearly sealed then way low on compression and that would be the problem (it should force your finger off and you would have no chance to hold it if compression is adequate) if compression is good then you left will fuel issues.. I know sounds stupid but check all the silly stuff first before you dive right in to all the nuts an bolts. disconnect fuel line see fuel is flowing from tank, check breather hose on tank not kinked or blocked, if you know fuel in it is old throw away and stick new fuel in, if all this checks out good then open her up.you could also force feed it fuel couple of tea spoons of fuel in the spark plug hole put it back together to start it and see if you get a brief starter or try to start up out of her I know its another back yard test as my back yard compression test is but at least it isolates some areas to work on.. cheers matewww.motoxpartsonline.com

https://www.google.com/search?q=1983+suzuki+gs1100+service+manual The pump is mechanical and pumps to the valves and other bearings that needs it. The oil level sight glass is only for that, you won't see it surging around like a washing machine. You have probably moved a wire when installing the new lights and that is causing the oil light to come on. If they are LED replacements, they can cause a whole lot of problems due to their electronic circuitry that is in the base cap of every bulb.. https://www.google.com/search?q=1983+suzuki+gs1100+installing+LED+Lights

99% of all 200cc MC engines engine oil and transmission is all in one the lost users guide is clear on that, get one. or ask your shop of advice, on service?

Take it to your Suzuki dealership for new components to be fitted. Most drivers are insured for theft, so the cost should be covered.

Are there any other light on the dash display? FI refers to the Fuel Injection system. If it is on and staying on it is possibly an electronics fault detected by the ECU, (Electronics Control Unit). You should get a good mechanic to look at this as they will have the correct diagnostic tools.

If the spark plugs are black, it is running rich, end of story, you are dumping too much fuel. You need someone that can do carb tuning on the bike. There is help in the Volusia Forums and it appears to be a known issue.. https://www.google.com/search?q=2004+Suzuki+Intruder+VL1500+running+rich ..

is it a diesel or petrol ?

Fuel starvation will do that. Check the fuel filter.

Depends on the time it takes them and their hourly rate. I would pose the question to a Suzuki dealership.

More information please. What EXACTLY is it doing? Slack clutch lever? Stuck clutch lever? Crunching or grinding as you try to shift? Grabbing and stalling as it selects the gear? Start at the clutch lever. Check it is pulling the cable then check at the transmission end that the cable is connected and moving with the lever. Next check the lever on the actual transmission. Does it seem too tight or too slack? These will give clues as to where the issue could be. It's a 37 year old bike so is it the original Clutch? Even motorcycle clutches wear out.
