    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...

    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 just a little history before my questions. I recently picked up a 79 gs750 and I'm hoping to turn it into a bobber and I'd like to change to pods and a 4 into 1 exhaust. I've searched for a jet kit to suitable for this but apparently dynojet don't do any for the vm26ss carbs that are on it does any know of any available anywhere?
My next question is what would be a nice looking transferable gas tank to put on it, something a little better than stock mine is too bad of condition to reuse without a lot of work.
 
I sent you question to my friend. I'll let you know what he thinks.
 
Do you have any photos of your bike? I just recently came to own a '79 GS750E as well, and was considering bobbing it, though I'm not sure I will yet. Have you started on it yet?
 
To each their own. I wouldn't bob a standard, as the L models are more suited for the style, as are v-twin cruisers. Just remember when you start removing and altering the suspension, you lose the riding distance your body will be able to handle.
 
No I don't have photos I unfortunately work on the road a lot so may be a slow process. But I do have it to the bare frame. And I may be changing my mind of the 4 to 1 exhaust I came across several mufflers at a garage sale on the weekend so who knows
