As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

    Need a good navigation app for Iphone

    I've used Calimoto. It has options to select all different terrains and roads windy, twisty, highway. Plan and map routes, and track rides. To get the map options for super twisty routes it requires a subscription payment, but it is pretty good free as well

    82 1100ez clutch rattle

    How To Get Paint Off An Engine?

    On my 1100 motor I removed it from the frame, fitted it onto an engine stand and soda blasted it (harbor freight unit) with the covers on and all ports and orifices sealed. Wouldn't recommend any harsh medium as it will pit the aluminum.

    BLACK engine paints

    I used PJ1 satin black on the ES a long time ago. Went on good. Once it went through a couple heat cycles it cured nice and hard and has been pretty durable.

    Sold a Suzuki and bought a Honda

    Trevor, as always, a good read. Happy you got the bike sorted and it's a good looking bike. Always appreciate your attention to detail and taking the (to some unnecessary) extra step to get things the way you want them.

    Can't make a comment regarding a new nut as all the ones I have are used... but have not had a threading struggle as long as old locking compound is removed an threads are clean. I'm sure you have but verify the PN you received as 31792-49200
