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...
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.
Riding to Las Cruces today...pics coming later; meeting up with a GSR member--first time ever! Current temp at 7:28am local is 23F. Time to bundle up!

Take some pic's of Bill's modded 750 with your bike please. Perhaps some side by side pic's to show the differences?
It's difficult to ride our bikes here in the netherlands as they are continuosly salting the roads to prevent ice. I certainly admire your bravery geting out there in the cold. I'm happy staying in with a six pack and reading the GS650 manual by the fireside![]()
Lol...I sure do Charlie.
Looks like you fared rather well, Trevor....your weather has markedly improved since last week, the bike looks great and so does the wife.
Last week we were thinking of how you Westerners were faring with our temperatures....this week you are well above us, as temperatures here have dropped, and snow keeps dropping as well.. Present temp at home is -12C and we have had snow for three days with another couple of cms forecast for tonight.
Yes..big difference from last week!Cold weather really freaks the tree huggers out here.
Glenn and I met Rob (AZR) for a coffee today (he had to work no bike for him) beautiful sunny afternoon. After Glenn and I took a scenic tour around the ocean.![]()

Went for a 70 mile loop today. New starter clutch installed, it actually started a couple of times. Had a friend mill down what's left of my rotor puller and it delivered, removing the rotor with ease. I was surprised it was so easy compared to last time. Too lazy to stop on the ride, it was a nice day, partially dry roads and fairly cold, so I didn't take a picture until I was in the driveway.

For a second, I thought you had picked up a Kat, Charlie...
