Manual for 1982 Suzuki GS300

Does anyone happen to have a PDF manual for a 1982 Suzuki GS300? If
so, I would greatly appreciate it.

 

No such motorcycle. Not in the UK, anyway.

 

Google pulls a few results, mainly in the USA.
From the (rather poor) pictures the engine looks like a GS400 or 500 so
the GS500 Haynes manual MIGHT be of some help.
Sounds like a grey import to me.

 

The GS400 was a twin (I owned one!) and spawned the GS425, GS450,
GSX400 etc. GS500 twin (also directly derived from the old 400 lump)
was very post-1982. There was a sleeved-down version of the GS550
four, the GS500, for some markets, notably Italy, and a few of those
have come into the UK. There was also a GS250 (custom version of the
GSX250, and I owned one of these as well). But deffo no GS300, so once
the OP gets his/her reading and typing skills together, we should know
more ;-)

 

Sorry gentlemen. This is the manual I need.

I was wondering whether it was a typo. Seemed more likely. Never seen
or heard of a GS300 over here, ever.

Good Lord. Just as well I put in the 'UK' proviso, then. Never, ever
*heard* of that beast, still less seen one. Apologies to the OP for
questioning his typing skills! Wonder if it was a sleeved-down 400 or
a bored-out 250?

The GS250 had four-valve heads, so probably the former.

 

The UK model GS250 was *definitely* four-valve heads, because it was
the same TSCC engine used in the GSX250 twin. Like I said, I had one
(well, both)

And the 300 did too, it seems, so probably a bored-out 250 after all!

Quite a rare beast, it seems: there's not much out there on the
interwebthingy.

 

See the 'Buy Now' button?

 

Why do I have this certain impression of you starting to scout around
for one?

 

Not even I am *that* daft. An engine with a slight appetite for
exhaust valves, and the nastiest charging system ever invented, in a
cruiser chassis and styled by someone who saw a Harley twenty years
ago and tried to reproduce it from memory.

 

I appreciate you all searching around the internet looking for info. I
knew it was a shot in the dark. At any rate, have a good day.

 

I still need the repair manual for this. I think the problem is that
they didn't actually make one for the 300. However, there was an
addendum to the gs250T manual. Here is a youtube video I thought you
might enjoy.
