    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.

What should the mirrors on my 1981 gs450E look like? I have round ones but I dont think they're stock. Does anyone have pics of oem mirrors for my bike?

The fiche shows both the round and rectangular style as stock for that bike. However, I can't tell if they were the chrome or the black ones like that so someone with more knowledge on that part will have to speak up
 
Welcome to the site, Chris.
Might depend on what country you are located.
If you put your location in your signature there could be a helpful GSer nearby.
Google pics show round and chrome for the non-faired version.
 
Thanks Steve! I've actually been around here since 2009, having some issues with my account lately. I started the GS Twin photo thread years ago... http://www.thegsresources.com/_foru...der-Photos-Post-Yours!&highlight=picture+twin

I'm in Denver, CO, and have had lots of help from local GSers (including meeting our shim-club administrator).

Cowboy - I was able to find what you're referring to in the parts catalog. My current black mirrors appear to be aftermarket but similar to the round style, and since the handlebar mounts are black I'm going to assume the bike came with black mirrors. With regard to shape, I'm still having a hard time figuring out if I should have the rectangles or the circles.
