    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.

82 GS1100L Side frame covers

So, unfortunately a garage collapsed on my bike over the winter, but luckily its 95% cosmetic damage and came out a lot better than I was thinking. Now however I am having trouble sourcing those plastic side covers that cover up the fuse block and wiring. I believe they are called side frame covers, it seems to me the 83 GS1100L covers are hard to find, and I can find if anyone has made any reproduction ones or not. If anyone has any leads or knows of someone that makes reproductions it would be greatly appreciated!
 
Looking for the same for an 82 GS850GL. I've found reproduction covers for slightly earlier models that used the slots on top instead of the nipples but, well, you and I are nipple men and there doesn't appear to be jack except brittle smashed ebay covers for $60 each in mismatched colors.

:(
 
Dang, looks like we might just be having to look out of a parts bike. Or potentially someone that can 3d print them.
 
looking for both left and right-side frame covers for 1982 Suzuki GS1100L as well, and help would be appreciated. Anyone know if other year and models will fit, I understand I'd have to change the emblem, grasping at straws, but can't find anything.
