    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.

These are Floorboards that were pulled from a GS850 at a salvage yard. They were without shift linkage and one of the boards were cracked due to what appeared to be a lay-down an the left side. After some fabrication, welding, trial and error, and, of course, that one bolt length that Nobody seemed to have untill the 7th place I looked, This is the result. I am happy with it. So I figured since Leon was my point-in-contact on getting these and shipping them to me, That he should get a look at them. Just a Thank you to Leon.

Wow, pretty sweet! Should make for some comfortable miles.
 
WOW! nice job fixing them up! what did the shifter come from?
 
Thanx! Shifter and linkage came from the local salvage yard, was in a box full of about 50 shifters. I had the mount made and welded on to fit where the origianl one was broken off. Takes some getting used to on the shifting part, but the boards make it a whole lot better on the legs! After your cost, was about 15.00, 6 hours of fabrication and bolt getting, and a 12 pack of Coors (for the welder). Not bad considering the ones on EBAY went for $428.00!!
 
Very Very Nice!!

Now have your welder buddy fabricate a bunch of customs for the rest of us -- I think I can spare a case of Coors!! :lol: :lol: :wink:
