    Got my o rings, thanks so much, I appreciate the kit you put together and the info sheet. Great!

    I'm awaiting some samples. They were mailed out today. If this size works (the last two didn't) I should have a kit ready in ten days. If the samples don't fit, there's no telling when I'll be done.

    I was told you were working on a o-ring kit for gs450's. I have an 80 gs450lt and in need of the o-rings between the intake boots and the head. If I need to buy a complete kit I will do that too.
    thanks

    Robert, don't worry about the gloves....seriously. I wouldn't wear them anyway since I have a much better pair now.

    Robert, yes I reassembled the exhaust the same way I found it, so I guess you could be right on it being an exhaust leak. But I still don't understand why it wouldn't get louder as the rpm's go up instead of going away. Anyway, I hope you're right and it quiets down for you. If so, would there be any interest in selling it? ;-) I'm kidding of course. My mailing address is still the same. Why do you ask?

    Hi Robert. Sorry, I just saw your question about the exhaust ever being off the 1000G. The answer is...I have no idea. The guy I bought it from was the second owner, and only had rode it a few times, then parked it for a few years. He was convinced it needed a valve adjustment but obviously he was wrong. I don't even know who the original owner was. My thoughts are that if it were an exhaust leak, wouldn't it get louder with higher RPM's, rather than going away? I had the exhaust off of it once, but it was tapping like that before and after. Pretty sure I got it back on good with the spacers in place like they're supposed to be. I know that noise is annoying. If it had not been doing that, I quite possibibly would still be owning it.

    Hi Robert I need orings and intake orings for a 81 gk1100 can you send me an I voice to my paypal?

    Hi, I have ordered your kits for many years as I run a small hobby business ultrasonically cleaning bike carbs. I am trying to source orings for Mikuni carbs from Z-1 since they sell them in packages of 25. I have a thread running in the carb section here asking for the sizes of the rings for a gs1100. Someone suggested I ask you what size the orings are. Would it be possible to send me that info?

    Thanks,

    Hi Robert,

    I hope you're ok. I purchased 2 oring kits from you and havent heard anything - unsure if you got my mail?

    Please do let me know,

    All the best,

    Simon.

    It worked well on both bikes. The red one has a more solid lever, there is either a little air in the blue one or the calipers are not 100%. I'd do it on any other bikes I own. I post stuff like that so others can make use of it. Hope it helps.

    Hi There, I recently ordered one of your kits and it worked wonderfully. Thank You. I forgot to add the drain orings for the penny tho and am having trouble finding ones that are the the right size and rated for fuel. Wondering if I could bother you to possibly send me four of them for an '83 850G or point me in the right direction to attain them, Thanks.
