    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.

  • 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.

    2025 Brown County GS Rally - June 19 - 22

    It's looking fairly promising that I'll be able to head out there this year. Hoping to ride out to Atlanta first and stop in Bedford on the way home. Sure would be nice to take my GK. I outta have enough time to get it ready, but if not I'm sure the 850 could use the exercise.

    Go fund me

    Wait, there's a squirrel on gofundme that's raised over $100k so far? How many hopeless souls has he lifted up? I'd like to know of a single down and out rider that friggin rodent has inspired to fight to keep his bike alive? Sheesh, I'll bet he never replied to a single PM about how to free up...

    Had to look up what a Stig is. Seems a Brit bike like a Velocette Venom would be a more suitable ride for him. That visor gets pretty dark in bright sunlight. Fortunately at night it's clear. Have to flip it up riding into a tunnel though.

    Carburetors badly out of sync?

    These bikes are pretty resilient. It's amazing how badly they can be treated, poorly tuned and neglected but still run. Maybe not run fine, or for long though. A lean condition, for instance, may not be apparent until the headers turn different colors. Spark plugs tell the story before that...

    GS850GL engine year identification

    Well, it's definitely from an L. The ignition cover has the DOHC instead of SUZUKI. According to the parts phiche, that tachometer sleeve (part#20) with the plate that holds it in (part #23) was standard in 80 and 81. Starting in 82 you could get the single piece but the older one still shows...

    Is there a 'Tools and Tricks' type thread here? Could be helpful/fun.

    I can't think of any single thread for custom tools, but surely you've seen the forum section for tips and tricks. https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/forum/technical-forums/tips-and-tricks One neat tip in there is to insert a tiny piece of vacuum hose under the nut in your battery terminal...

    What a cool pic to be converted to B/W. From my phone's screen it totally looks like water in the background with waves breaking on the rocks just behind your bike.

    Rockauto Discount Codes

    I'm not sure how many codes are valid at once, but this one came up in a google search for current rockauto discount code. Saved me $15 on a fuel pump.​ 294374552228365773​

    Most likely a GS, could be a GT two stoke triple. That would be cool. Here are a couple of sites to check out. https://www.autoevolution.com/moto/suzuki/gt-1/ https://www.autoevolution.com/moto/suzuki/gs-1/

    Hey Mike. Depending on which state you're in there may be back fines or penalties for not registering it. New Mexico, where I am, doesn't have stiff penalties for that. You can apply for a lost title. I think they need time to attempt to contact the most recent registered owner and check police...

    I really wanted to ride over to one of our BMX tracks here, didn't happen though. Possibly a record store with some artwork of music tracks on the building. There's a high school around the corner with a great track around the football field. Always work work work, Voting for Baatfam. Great...

    It is an older pic, but yes, I still have the 850. No Windjammer or backrest though. That pic was a "tag" from our "Riding Game" several years ago.

    Hey Paulf. The seat from an '82 and later year 850 G will fit right on. I swap my '83 850G and '82 GK with no trouble.
