Off trade me its a GS 500 with a GSX 400 motor not sure why given how bullet proof they are ( was it for more power 39 vs 44 HP ??) but need the basic info to tune it.

It seems to me by the specs its a better motor higher compression etc. Its very modest project bike and I hope to evolve into a commuter bike and get back to riding

There is a GSX twin going on trademe for $3500 if you are still in love.

I am still looking for an online manual and as a newbee am unable to send a pm to the person with an archive

I would also like to thank you all for the generosity have a few bits that I want to freebee as thanks for all the communal goodwill

cheers

going from memory I think the GS500 manuals would give you most of the information you need.
Im just not sure if they just ressurected the gsx400 engine from the 80's or sleeved down the gsx500 engine

Disregard - it's the old a GSX400F 4-cyl - mid-late 82-83.

Whoever runs the website is a bit of a muppet. The one listed for my bike is 126MB yet the genuine manual I have from another source when OCRed is actually only 15MB. The GSX400F one they have is 40MB which when I downloaded and OCRed came down to 13MB. God only knows why they haven't done that - it's not only more useful is a fraction of the size.
