    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.

    GS550 Steering Stem Bearing Removal

    Hi all. I couldn't find a forum topic for frame queries - I hope this is the right place. I've been trying to remove the lower bearing inner race from the steering stem - using the search function I've found posts explaining how to remove the outer races; I managed those on my own, but can't...

    Thank you for the information! Reputable brand names/parts aren't something I'm familiar with yet, so that's very helpful ( although I've decided to replace the shocks and fork springs with Hagon parts, whose name I am familiar with as my grandfather also used them)

    Hi all. My name is Joe - I'm 27 and living in Glasgow, Scotland (I was born near London). Attached is a 35mm photograph of my 1981 GS550T as I purchased it in 2019. This bike has been neglected by its previous owner; for safety's sake I am engaging in a full strip, recondition and rebuild. I...
