    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.

    Progress!!! 1978 GS1000E Restoration/Performance Rebuild

    Good luck with the resto. Having said that, I can't understand why some people take the wheels off a bike that has the engine in it still. it seems that it would be way harder to work on. I am aware of the lifting the frame off the motor technique, and maybe that was employed here, but that...

    New Stator now R/R Bad????

    A new acquisition

    After owning this for about a month now, I figured I might as well post it up- It runs fine, but things need to be fixed/cleaned up/adjusted. The cam chains are loose, I had to replace a broken tachometer drive cam cap, the clutch fingers are notched and the basket has the slop that they...
