    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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 GS750E Introduction

Hi,

I'm a 1978 GS750E with a new owner that needs fixing :lemo:

Just kidding :) I'm 64 and just picked up this 750 for 800 clams and it doesn't run. It's burgundy with "no spark" issues that was purely an emotional buy.

I'm enjoying the hell out of fixing this bad boy up, testing and replacing necessary components, cleaning and filing crud off contacts positive and negative alike.

I've never worked on bikes before but have on most of the cars I've owned, so this is fun sorting through the youtube videos and forensically getting to know the previous owner/original owner through the work he has done on the bike, as he has passed.

The bike has 11,330 miles and I sure hope I can get it running!

I'm reading through the threads here in the "search" feature and thought I'd should post a thank you and introduction in the process.

Thank you folks for being here and for the valuable knowledge you generously share with the membership. End of ass kissing.

Thank you!! :cheerful:
