Buying a $400 Auction bike, Fixed it in 10 minutes 

The GS750 is one of the most underrated bikes of all time. Ones in good running condition can be found for $2000 and with around 80HP and disk breaks they do just fine in modern traffic. inline 4, DOHC, 16 valve. Great engines.

A bike brought back to life is one of the most beautiful sounds ever.

These are my favorite videos. I am not rich by any means so i ride on a budget and you guys give me so much faith.

"You could throw 2 girls on the back of this thing! " shoot you haven't seen the girls I hang out with brother. We'd be lucky to squeeze one on there and you had better be slippin the clutch or you'll loop out in a second.

9:54 ever notice how guys shake the pump handle and girls never do lol.

“You could, but you shouldn’t” dude that made me crack up so much. 😂😂😂 I love you man.

Holy sugarbeets, Batman! I had one of these, in 1988! Kept it about two years. Mine was a 1983, also, and silver vs. maroon. I paid $1,500 it, in great condition and low miles. I rode the heck out of that bike, all around the state of Michigan where I grew up. Never gave me any trouble. It would heat up in the Michigan summer and lose power to some extent, being air cooled. I did very few mods, if-any, since it didn't really need much. This was Suzuki's heyday, in fact I'd say they were a major player all through the 1980s. Everything you've said about the GS is true, in terms of history. The GSX-Rs came out in m.y. 1986 (a year earlier in Canada I think). That changed everything, to say the least, another story. Any-hoo, thanks for the walk down memory lane. I traded mine in for a Yamaha FJ1100, another story and one of several "greatest I've owned." Real solid museum piece, bottom line!

One tip; check the oil before you start it. It could have been emptied out, and you can end up with messed up motor

That bike reminds me so much of my old 1986 GS550ES minus the 3/4 fairing. It was light weight, quick steering geometry and the power was decent with its TSCC (Twin Swirl Combustion Chambers). Just a great intro to what we now know as sport bikes. If I could find an identical one in good shape I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I really like when you attempt to bring these old bikes back to life, it is fascinating to me that these old engines still want to live, keep this series going👍

I got a 78 gs550 as my first bike a couple months ago. I just completed my first big repair job, and I really think a simple bike is the way to go for learning how bikes operate

Been watching a crap ton of your videos and it drives my wife crazy because you guys are so close. We live in Philly and she is from Lebanon where we lived for four years before moving back to philly.

I do the same thing with old cars unfortunately there much harder to walk home . The thrill and anticipation of doing minimal repairs or none what so ever and then taking a quick ride is awesome. I really like your channel keep up the great content

Can’t wait for the road trip videos! I recently restored a 1981 GSX 1100, the old Suzuki’s are awesome!

I picked up a 1985 Vulcan 700 for next to free, turned out to be a complete gem after a few hours of maintenance.Runs great and the engine sound is amazing.

This GS(X) 750 is one of the best bikes ever made. I used to have it back in the 90s, wish I still had it. 12:12 If you don't feel the pickup power, it needs work. Sounds kinda sluggish at low RPM, like it's not running on all 4 cylinders.

This reminds me of my first proper bike. Back in the mid 1980's I had a GS550 which was a great bike. I toured around Europe on it three times. The GS achilles heel was the electrical system which sadly melted down on a French motorway just outside Avignon. I had to get it recovered back to the UK but at least I discovered what a beautiful city Avignon is. I replaced it with an FZ750 which was good for fast riding and far more technically advanced (fully faired, twenty valve engine and liquid cooled) but not as enjoyable as my GS to tour primarily due to the horribile seat which used to make my arse ache after an hour of riding lol. That got replaced with ZZR1100 which was just awesome but a bit of a money pit what with having to replace the back tyre and front brake pads every 3k miles :) Happy days. Just to shed some light on the carbs it was a popular tuning conversion back to replace the CV carbs that came from the factory with slide carbs like those amals on your GS. There is a technical reason for the conversion but TBH I can't remember what that reason was. It was a long time ago. Thanks to you and the team for the great content you provide.

A good tip is that if you've have an engine that's not been run for a year or more check the sump for oil (obviously), then use a turkey baster to add oil down the sparkplug holes and manually rotate the engine a few times before putting the plugs back in and firing it up. It's also why when buying a key question is how often a vehicle is used. Often a higher milage vehicle in regular use is preferable to a low mileage vehicle that's just sat.

OMG! that bike looks awesome. Way more than nowadays ones. And i have a feeling that this channel is something! My precioussss.

Those old inline 4s are the coolest! A little elbow grease and a 4 into 1 exhaust with no baffle and you have a great sounding dependable machine. I love it!

There's a cylinder missing, mostly noticable in the beginning so it's probably a carb issue... It'll run a lot better after some cleaning and syncing. Also, get fresh tires. These may work ok on dry roads, but old tires on wet roads could kill you.

I had a mildly modified gs750 of the same year.....one of my favorite bikes I've ever ridden! Running well they are surprisingly fast. One thing to take note of, make sure the anti-dive system is working properly. It links the front brakes with the forks. Again, working properly it's a very good system. Have fun!

Ive been off bikes for a year or to but was a harley rider with the occasional holiday drag racing 😇 and i still have a soft spot for the old UJM those air cooled 4s was special, and regardless of what you are doing to your bike if anyone says your stupid ( talking about the choke thing) shut them up anyway you can ( by the way I'm only 38 my first bike was in ha PW50 when I was 4 years old and my daddy told me what the controls did and if it broke I had to fix it) basically what I'm saying is this breath of fresh air to see somebody still willing to admit they don't really know what they're doing but still jump in and figure it out that's what motorcycles are about anyway love you Channel man keep the rubber side down in the wind in your face

I love this bike.I started on a 81 Suzuki 550, and I've been chasing that exhilaration ever since.

did this recently with a 1987 Fazer, just needed new vacuum plugs & a spark plug cap, balanced the carbs and whoooha it runs like a beast!

I dont know, but i fell in love with old bikes.. Wish to have like this one.

I have a soft spot for older bikes. My first bike was a 78 Kawasaki KL250, then proceeded to an 83 Honda CX500. Loved both of them, but especially the Honda. Back when I was a broke 19-21 year old, nothing more satisfying than getting things going on the cheap and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

the integral- plug-wires are shorting at the coils. Happened to me on mine 25 years ago. Sound is very distinctive when it appens

That cutaway with "You could...but you shouldn't" cracked me up, dude XD

Getting older bikes on the road again should be a regular segment!

Love the looks n style of that bike.. keep the great videos coming and God bless u!!!!!

loving the channel...been binge watching for the last 2 days!!!

I like your videos where u buy project bikes and fix them.

In my Country you can throw 5 people on the back seat.

Love your videos man your so straight up no BS ing around. Love you brother. From UK👍🏼

I used to own same bike but the GS500. Love that motorcycle so comfortable fast enough. Awesome video

This is a man that doesn’t work a day in his life, he loves what he does

That’s a genuinely beautiful bike 👌

Man I love this channel so much! And I love you! What you're doing is awesome brother! You inspired me to start riding! I bought a cream white 2007 Yamaha 650 classic with only 25,678 miles on her. God Bless! And safe riding.

I just bought an '86 Honda shadow 500 for 500 bucks cleaned the carbs replaced the plugs and it runs great! I love it

Now I find myself browsing the internet for cheap bikes 🙈

Thank you for leaving the text on the screen long enough to read it.

The sound of this bike brought back alot of memories my father had a 82 gs 750 e when I was a kid.....I spent alot of time on back of it in 90s.

My first big bike - I had mine 11years and eventually new wheels WP shock race tuned custom fairing and paint - loved it!!

That bikes the real deal, I would see these bikes on the road in the UK all over the place. Great to see it running the roads again, the naked street bikes owe a lot to this bike, the berth of a whole era still going strong today.

was 18 in 1983,wanted one of those so bad and no job and no money made it one of those unattainable dreams.

YAAAAAAYYYYYY! I had two of those in the '90's. A blue one and a red one, but both were the ES version which had a "bikini fairing" (half fairing) attached to the frame. Interestingly, here in the UK, they were called GSX 750E(S) not GS 750E.I also had a custom bike with a GSX 750E engine fitted into it. Fantastic bikes. Bit big and a bit heavy, but it'll do everything you want it, and just lap it up and be ready for more. Originally your bike had CV carbs and an airbox. My custom bike had slide carbs and bell mouths. Wouldn't run in the rain! Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

Great channel dude. Keep up the great work👍

Solid content! I found a 1975ish honda CB360T in my grandfather's barn.. someday I'd love to brush the dust off and get it going. These vids are egging me on lol even though financially I have no idea what I'd be getting into

Ride it! I had a 1981 GS1100E back in the day. Great bikes.

Happy to see this in my suggested. I had one of these as a cheap daily commuter in 03-06 it took some serious abuse and held up.

Really nice bike! Only thing I see that would worry me is the RTV silicone for the valve cover seals. I'd clean that out and put the correct seals back in if it were me. That stuff tends to migrate and clog oil passageways in older bikes. Still, can't beat $400 worth of running bike!

I’m a motorcycle rider Not a motorcycle pusher

I'd be a buyer for that thing. I've had an 82 GS750ES and an 85 GS700ES. I loved both of them. Very comfortable and work well for running around town and even weekend trips. I did a 3,000 mile trip on my 82 in the summer of 93. Those engines are bulletproof.

My history is you guys and videos on the yamaha XVS650. I got my XVS650A because of your video

i want that bike dude something about it just looks amazing to me love the older style bikes

I sure hope that you still got that Suzuki that was a pretty sweet ride

Had to smile a bit, as it reminded me of when my cousin and I got my '82 Kawasaki KZ440 going and he had to jump on it and run it around town for me to check it out. When he came around the block with that bug-eating grin on his face, I knew we'd had success. Good on ya keeping an old machine running. Still think you shouldn't have taken that trip so soon tho.

Very cool bike. The GS1100-E is one of my all-time favorite bikes ever made. The 750 has got to be good if it's anything like its big brother.

"You could, but you shouldn't" Instantly subscribed lol

Love 80's bikes. There's just something about them. I'd have one over a new bike for sure...

I've got a 1983 gs750es and love it. Lots of fun runs like a top. Rare bike

Oh snap you were riding in Landisville that’s my Aunt’s development! Keep up the good work!

19:06 Now that the bike has run after not running for a few years, the debris has shaken loose in the tank and moved on down through the unfiltered gas line into the float bowls, further blocking the idle jets and more. You must clean the whole system out including the gas tank.

what a sweet bike, the GS750, and GSX1100 were the bikes that got me into biking, I would love to see you find a Katana1100

the later that day clip reminds me of my suzuki dr200, its a lot newer, and i have seen or heard that all or most of the suzuki mirrors are crap. great vid i love your content

really enjoy your informational content!

heyyy! i have a 1981 gs750e ! dude have yet to watch the video fully! had extremely clogged up needles in the carb, unclogged them all and the bike runs! sat for 10+ years

Hey bro! Great video, also why did the the older bike engine explode from the road tripp you were telling us?

I had one, I think it was a 78, I miss it. The sound of the shims , love it.

A friend's older brother had this exact bike that he bought new back in '83. Back then, this bike was THE STUFF!

Dude, I have been in the PA mountains on a motorcycle and y'all got some banjo players of your own... just sayn' :)

Definitely sounds likes its hitting on 3 cylinders to me.

Great bike! Hands down the best looking bike at the beginning of 80's.. Would say that a carb strip down, and proper clean is a must!..

Dude your honesty is legit

"You could...but you shouldn't!" - Hahahaha soo good!

I want this bike. Seriously.. I bought one of these years ago and loved it. Tell me how and I'll get my credit card out.

Cool video! I like the old bikes. First thing I noticed is the forks have the old anti-dive system that hook up to the front brakes. 2nd thing was "wait, velocity stacks but a stock exhaust?" Once zoomed in for the choke and I saw they were Amal's I knew they weren't stock. Now I have to sort through your old videos and see how it went. lol

i need help i want to ride a bike and feel that freedom before i pass i dont care about bthe bike it the fact im on a crap load of oxygen and im on hospice care running out of time i watch you guy and you give me much joy just watching

Eleven hundred thousand miles lol 😂 that’s things been rode.....a lot!! Cool video 👍🙏🏻

We need to ride together when I get one of my Magnas going

Love the look of that bike! 😍Never saw one in germany afair, only GS500e and maybe a few 650's and they all are nakeds.

I currently have a ‘71 Honda 500 four, a 76 Honda gl1000 ( cafe conversion 50%) and a ‘68 sears 106 that runs real well. I love tinkering with old bikes but I really love riding them.

Hey when you going to get you in the Mike Wazowski helmets😂

Also glad u use real gas instead of starter fluid. Better for the engine plus cheaper than starter fluid

Subscribed to watch you mess things up lol. Keep em coming!

This is the best format ever

Love to see those older bikes hitting the road...get out there...

always check the oil first

I recently bought a 1978 Honda cb400t and I can't find anything for it looking for help and I've been following you for a long time and I enjoy your channel on how informative you are with God the bikes and safety. If there's any way you can tell me where to look I would be extremely happy this is my first bike I got it for $750 and I am trying to get it going so that I can finally get out there and ride and feel a little bit of that freedom on the road

I was given a basket case GS 750 E , 18 years ago ... it was in pieces... I spent close to a year rebuilding it and the day it turned over and I was able to tool around the neighborhood was was amazing... I loved the motor in that it was a Hemi style of piston and head design... which ended up in the GSX or the Katana ... I sold it for close to $3500....

Hey how are you taking those shots? Im so confused also i love these videos u guys helped me getting my xj650 with your last vid

how to fix a motorcycle: put gas in it

Classic cool and good looking bike. Many times they will start up and idle but will not run much more than that because the carbs are plugged up

Second video of yours I'm watching... I can already tell I'm hooked

If you want an old standard to ride 700 miles on, try out a Suzuki GS850. Comfortable, smooth and torquey.

@Bikes and Beards If you get that bike all the way to GA, still running, I'll buy it from you. I'm in Athens.

I had a 1981 GSX1000 with carb issues, they were a pain to sync and def ahead of its time though. Had gear indicator, shaft drive and tons of torque. I ruined it by overfilling the crankcase being young and eager to ride since it was my bday present lol. Head gasket blew but absolutely loved it

I have a 96 Magna with 32K miles, bought it in July of 2019. Rode it pretty much daily until the beginning of November and it always started. As soon as it got real cold outside, it didn't want to start. I have fought with it for about 3 months. Replaced the starter solenoid, then I thought it was the start/stop switch. I decided to put new plugs in it and boom, that old SOB is tearing up asphalt again. If you're having problems, easy thing is to check your plugs. I think I'm the 4th owner of this bike, and I also think I'm the first person to change plugs in it. I also put on a new chain. I do believe the old one had 32K miles on it.

AS Someone who is from GA, around the area of the banjo music, I find that comment appropriate.
