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.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

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.

    ’79 GS850G caliper rebuilt kits

    I always just email Raymond. Normally get a response the next day with pricing and an offer to send a paypal invoice. I've purchased probably 6-7 sets from him without any issues.:cool:

    ’79 GS850G caliper rebuilt kits

    Take a look at Apex Brakes for the lines. I just ordered a 4-line set for my 1979 GS1000 that were $138 total shipped to my door. Raymond Chan raymond@apexbrakes.com

    Maybe the most "cobbled-together" bike I have ever purchased!

    Thanks guys! They are probably installed wrong, lots of things on this bike are like that! Good to know what headlight I have for whenever when it goes on Ebay!:D

    Starting to look a little better with a stock front fender and a chrome speedo cover!

    Anyone know if these are the headlight mounts for a 1150? This thing has a bigger than stock headlight, but I have no idea what bike it is from. It will probably be on Fleabay once I figure out what I have!

    Got a little surprise when I took the headlight out of the housing! I guess it could have been worse. At least they had moved on!

    Yeah, the tank is a '78 indented tank. It has never been lined and looks new inside. That's one of the reasons I bought it!

    Maybe the most "cobbled-together" bike I have ever purchased!

    Yes, I have a clear title. The CV carbs that were on it worked, just not very well, and I had a newly rebuilt set of the correct carbs sitting on a shelf.

    Looks like I've decided what to do. I'm going to slowly get it back to an original skunk as much as possible over the winter months. Today I rebuilt the cam chain tensioner, installed the new carb to head boots, painted the starter cover and stuck the new carbs on it. Waiting on an airbox...

    Looks like someone changed the intake boots on the head to a larger diameter size to "almost" fit the CV carbs. That and some red silicone got 'em to work I guess! Like I said, it is cobbled-together! A set of intake boots and carbs that I had for a '79 GS850 fit perfectly!

    That's the direction I am leaning. I've already got a set of the correct VM carbs for it.:cool: Just got to get an airbox! Yeah, and the tank is clean inside and has not been lined. That's a plus! Looks like there may be some filler on it, as there is a surface crack in the paint, which is not...

    Just going by the VIN number, GS1000-703438, everything I have found says it should be an "L"???? This thing has a strange VIN plate, unlike any I have seen before so who knows what it was in a previous life! Of course there is no headstock sticker. And strangely enough, there are no numbers...
