About the Suzuki GS650GT
Carburetor and engine-sealing choices for the GS650GT.
Keep the complete GS650GT designation when choosing parts from the wider GS650 family. This guide separates three sealing jobs: the carburetor slide, the cylinder-head cover and the oil-filter cover. Each has a different component and service location.
Choose the seal at the repair location
The slide diaphragm and filter-cover O-ring fit 1982–1983; the valve-cover gasket fits 1982. For a top-cover repair on a 1983 motorcycle, obtain a separate application confirmation before choosing that gasket.
