I bought a new 1979 GS850G. First year of the model. I sold my GS550E to buy it. Black with silver/blue double pin striping on the tank, side covers and tail piece. It was a beauty. There was a shrader valve on the top of one fork tube, and an equalizer between the two forks just above the lower triple clamp. The bike came with a light hand pump and a low pressure shrader test with a dial gauge. They recommended single digit pressures.
My KTM has air forks as well but no equalizer tube, and it came with a substantial pump. They recommend much higher pressures.
