Title: WTB 175 GS Intake Manifold
Post by: skiracer on May 13, 2023, 02:05:29 PM
I'm looking for a 77 175GS intake manifold. But first does anyone know if it will fit a 76 (long) 175 cylinder?

Skiracer,
The illustrated parts manual shows exact same part number 52-30-050-000 for both the 7 fin cylinder in 1976 and the 6 fin cylinder in 1977. I'd say it's a pretty good bet that intake manifold would work in both applications.

Thanks Dave!  Not exactly what I wanted to hear.  I was hoping the 77 manifold had an offset like the 250 motors have.  I am looking to better allign my carb with the airbox.
