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.

  • 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.

    engine knocking

    Could it not be a bit piston slap, piston clearance a bit on the large side. When it warms up piston expands a little and noise goes away

    2v 750 Piston Questions

    Gs 750 and 850 use 16mm wrist pins, kawa are 17mm gs1000 18mm wrist pins. If you use gs850 cylinders you could go standard or get 1mm oversize from cruzinimage in Japan. There an ebay seller, I have used there piston rings and there fine.

    Cam end float

    I just made the cam cap end square to the head surface, the more material removed from cap the thicker the brass shim. Of course you need the valves out and the other caps nipped down. I used a dial gauge to check end float, about 2 thousands of an inch.

    Brake piston issue, ordered from Bike Bandit???

    Is the bigger piston just for single disc setup. I think I can remember using a left caliper from my gs1000n on my son's gs550. The right caliper was from a twin setup and had a smaller piston.
