    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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...

  • 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.

Anyone have pictures of unfaded gauges?

I plan to re-paint and silk screen my tach and speedo gauge faces as mine are very faded. Can anyone post up some good pics of what they should look like? Also, any recommendations on paint to use for the brown color? (At least I think it is brown). It is an mph speedo with km in smaller print underneath. Is the km supposed to be a different color? Maybe red? Those markings look a little darker than the white mph. All the red markings on my tach are now nearly white. (A little pinkish, so I can tell there used to be some red)
 
just an idea, but craigslist bikes often post pictures of their low mileage speedos...search function including various cities should turn up a lot of Suzukis...
