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.

    Hi Don. I logged on to the forum this evening for the 1st time in a very long time. When I saw your recent post, I thought I'd drop you a short note with the hope that you remember me and, if so, your visit to my lakehouse inn Rogersville, TN many yrs ago. To tell you the truth, one of the...

    It appears that he used JB Weld to install the new posts. I'm not sure exactly what the posts were originally or where he got them. I'm really sorry to not be of any more help. I'm going to respond to the request for a pic by asking, in general, for someone that can post a pic for me, to PM me...

    I wish I could help you but Joe Nardy was the one that modded these. I wouldn't be surprised if he'd respond to a PM if he's still dropping by the forum from time to time. Unfortunately, the GSR doesn't send you an email if you have a PM. Good luck and have a great week, Willie PS I sure do miss...

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    That's always good to know. Another great memory involving that road involves being passenger in a friend's POS '56 Chevy. It was a Winter day, the pkwy was covered in snow and we were headed down a long downhill sweeper when the car went into a slide. He stayed on the gas, the car made contact...

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    Small world. I remember riding my '70 H1 up there one cold day and getting pulled over on the Sawmill River pkwy on the way home during a snow flurry. When the cop asked me what I do when I get caught in weather like that, my response was to get home as quickly as possible. Thus, the reason for...

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    Back in the 70's there was a really good Kawasaki dealer in Danbury. Worth the drive from Westchester County NY

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    VERY good idea! I'll take a closer look at it and see if taking that route is feasible. Out of curiosity, where in CT are you located? I used to work near the NY/CT border in Port Chester many decades ago.

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    Ironic that a picture of a Givi should get posted. After reading the earlier posts, I went down to my basement after remembering that I had a small plexiglass screen tucked away some where. Sure enough, it was a really nice Givi. I thought I was in luck until I held it up to my 8" headlight. It...

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    VERY impressive background experience and informative response. THANKS! I sold a pair of like new Hippo Hands before ever trying them out. :(. Having picked up sewing vinyl for boat cushions and seats recently, I can see myself making a pair. Hell, I could color match them to the bike. lol...

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    That's a great looking 1100G, Bill, and the windscreen was the basic style I was hoping to get feedback on. So thanks for posting the pic. As for the Hugon, I'll admit that in the 50 yrs that I've been into bikes, I don't recall every seeing that particular fairing. Very interesting. Thanks for...

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    Thanks Trevor. As much as I agree with Rob re: fairings on sport bikes, NO!, I like the idea of providing some comfort JUST for the Winter. Thanks guys. Ride safe!

    Help me decide upon a windscreen for my '83 1100E

    With the cooler temps having arrived, I'm giving serious thought to installing a small windscreen on my 1100E. Its been quite some time since I looked at what's available, especially one that would accommodate a large headlight. So, I thought I'd ask for some help from others who may've dealt...

    Hey BEW, I appreciate your response to my post about selling my 1100 and, especially, the compliment about me being a stand up guy. I can't help but wonder if we've met or, if not, and although others would agree, how did you know I was a stand up guy? Willie

    Thanks for responding to my post about selling Joe Nardy's former bike. You might be happy to know that the paint still looks like it was done just last week. By any chance did you paint the other, dark blue bodywork also? Willie

    Thanks for the endorsement. :). Kinda awkward to ask but have we corresponded or done business? Your name doesn't ring a bell. However, it could be a memory thing that us old timers have to deal with. Willie
