    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.

Are GS1000 air rear shocks better than GS1100G standard shocks

The GS1000 chain drive shocks pictured are aftermarket. They will not directly bolt up to any shaft drive GS (including your 1100G) without some modification. The bottom mounts are the clevis type, while the shaft drives use a standard eye mount. Dar
 
Thanks. I had figured I could do the mod if there was likely to be a performance gain

No and yes mate,
Those shocks are standard on the GS1000ET around these parts.
They perform ok, not sure if they would be an upgrade though, there must be a reason they were only fitted for one year.
The G would need to be modified for them to fit, not sure I would bother for those shocks.
Cheers

Thanks, that was the sort of advice I was after. I see you have an ET... maybe you can use them. They seem like a good buy at $50 NZ
 
Yeah mate for that money they arent a bad buy.
Like I said they work alright, but *I* don't like the way they look.
I am saving my $$$ for some others.
Cheers
