    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

1978 GS1000 Tank Replace or repair please HELP!!!

The 1100 tanks fit, but the petcock aren't the same size and they hit the carb. But it can be made to work.
 
'80 - '81 GS 750E tank is the same as the 1100E. Depending on the year the petcock may or may not fit.
 
For what it's worth, I just finished cleaning & sealing a Skunk tank... I would go to great lengths to keep yours functional. There hasn't been very many available in the past few weeks & they cost a lot, then you have to fix them once you get it. I even considered cutting the bottom out of this one so that I could get in it to properly clean it. Hope I don't have to, but I am still prepared to do so. Keep yours, fix it. Don't use Kreem. Fix it properly.
 
Thanks, gonna drop it off at the radiator shop this week, hoping all goes well
