    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.

    Sure did! Andrew Stroud did a few 'parade' laps along with aTZ750, Simon Crafars' British GP winning YZR500, and some mad British 800cc Rotary, amongst others. After the left hander in the photo is straight.

    Just reassurance please GSx750E 1982

    It's long because it one of the bolts that fix the lower and upper engine cases together. Be careful not to let any crud fall down the hole. Give it a good brush and a blast of compressed air (if you have it) or vacuum the dust and debris up before you remove the bolt. You should re-torque it...

    anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

    A couple of weeks ago ... Me on the 750 ready for the 'track cruise' this year's Motofest at Hampton Downs Raceway. I parked over the side until most of the pack had gone past. From last year, I learned that if you were at the back of the pack you got to carve up a crap ton of bikes in the 3...

    what did you wrench on today??

    Thanks Tom. I'll post the results after she's run in. Fitted new rings and a hone + valve seals on the 750 two years ago and no smoke, no top up between oil changes. Used a special running in to assist with ring seating and was careful varying the revs and loading and unloading rings for the...

    what did you wrench on today??

    My 650G Katana, has been smoking, worse and worse. When I restored it a few years ago, I replaced gaskets and cleaned up the inlet ports, gave it a hone but didn't swap out the rings, or valve stem seals as it didn't smoke before the top end tear down. Compression was good hot or cold, and she...

    Ok, this week is 'view from the saddle'. So a pic of anything you like from your bike. Don't have to be moving. Just somewhere your bike has taken you.

    Isle of Man sidecars

    Yep, they are unique. Up until 1996 the were part of the FIM World Champs (which became 'MotoGP). In 1949 they were a motorcycle with a chair bolted on, but logical engineering developed them into what they are today. In the 1980, 7 x times world champion Rolf Biland built a sidecar where the...
