    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. 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...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. 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.

    Landmark moment in music!

    I will agree that live experiences definitely help you connect with the artist. I can't really stand any "Van Hagar" music, but when I saw Sammy and the Wabos live... that guy can really rock and I had a new respect for his music.

    1983 GS1100 emissions sticker needed

    What is the mileage? If over 7500 then not an issue... Below from Google. If not.. get a clock that has that many miles on it. Based on California DMV regulations, a 1983 Suzuki GS1100 generally does not require a smog check to be registered, as smog inspections are currently only mandatory...

    1983 GS1100 emissions sticker needed

    The image should be in your owners manual if you have that.. or can find it online. All the one's on BikeCliff's website do not have "1983" :-k I don't think the standards changed at all. Just use the 1980 one and have the decal guy change the year. Page 28 on the link below...

    1983 GS1100 emissions sticker needed

    I was working with a guy on eBay to reproduce a VIN tag. He does custom made decals to order. Might be worth checking if he has this one already. Jerry's Z50 Stuff - User name - jrure. Email - jrure@aol.com

    1983 GS1100 emissions sticker needed

    The source in the thread below does VIN stickers and might be able to reproduce if you had images. Might send an email anyway, he may have produced this one before. https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/forum/technical-forums/projects-rebuilds/1762493-1978-gs750ec#post1762558

    Pilot Jet Stripped

    If you end up losing all of the purchase you can get on the slot trying with the correct size screwdriver, try a left-handed drill bit after oil and heat. Then a torx if you have to like Ed said.

    Thoughts about the website in general

    I'm wondering how you do a "Comment" and not a "Reply". That appears to be the difference here. Is that only something you can do as the Administrator?

    Mechanic registry

    I like the idea. Even mechanics that only do one particular thing.. brakes, forks, carbs, cylinders, heads, paint, etc. I've called around a couple times when I thought I was in over my head and always got "nope that's too old for me to work on". Admittedly I don't have anything to add to this...

    Do you still own a GS?

    I currently have 2. Told the wife I would sell the 850 when I get the 1100 road reliable... but we'll see.

    Thoughts about the website in general

    I think some more engagement on the Facebook group (and other classic Suzuki groups for that matter) would drive some traffic here. I see people asking for tips everyday on there and lots of times the advice is not really great. Sometimes it's spot on, but that usually comes from someone that is...
