    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...

82 750 Fork Tubes

Upon recent inspection of my front end I discovered I have a bent fork tube. Removed front tire and loosened the clamps up a bit so I could rotate the fork in the tree, and sure enough she wobbles pretty bad. Now I see why my front tires aren't lasting very long. Other than the bent tube the forks are in good shape. The lowers look good, the seals don't leak a drop, and they hold air pressure very well. I hate to by another complete set of forks on ebay when I really only need one upper tube. Wondering if anyone has any tubes laying around if they'd be willing to part with one. Its time for a new front tire again and I'd like to get this sorted before I put it on. Thanks.
 
Which 1982 GS750 model?

They seem to be different part numbers:
51110-45940 inner tube T (1982-83)
51110-45900 inner tube E (1982 only)

(If I squint carefully, it sort of looks like a T in your avatar, but best to check...)

Might want to post in parts wanted.

It's possible fork assemblies or fork tubes from another model could fit or be made to fit, but that would require some careful measuring and pondering.
