    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.

hey everybody...I see like 5 or so places to get stuff< Is there 1 or 2 that rise above the rest as far as quality/price? I need to get all the seals needed to clean the carbs..? Oh also, what about the cleaning solution? Is it a 1 gal. or % gal. can? any basket/needed? Thanks for all the great participation!:D
 
cylle o rings.com is a site put together by a memeber of this forum. They will have a complete o ring set for your carbs.
Make sure you get the intake boot o rings also they are only about 4 bucks more and get Berrymans carb dip in a gallon can at auto zone/advanced auto .
Have you seen bikecliff page?

All the info you will need on GS maintenance will be in there!:)
 
oh wow, that looks cool..why can't I find any "owner's" manual pdf for my 79' anywhere? I got a repair manual but would like to check out an owner's manual...?
 
There is a basket in the Berrymans can so that helps. For general parts/other seals/gaskets I use Boulevard Suzuki or Babbits. Lots of guys use Z1 because they are very knowledgeable about the parts you need.
 
gettin off base but what engine oil? A 10-40w sf or si oil..something at the local parts store? I run synthetics in all the vehicles..
 
OK just ordered a seals kit from cycleOrings, now it seems the only other parts needed are the bowl and slider cover gaskets correct?
GSsuzuki is $40.00 for the 2x4 gaskets...:eek: liken the make your own.. any other/better spots for the gaskets? TIA!
ps got the carb dip at autozone last night:D
 
If you are kind to the top cover gaskets, you can re-use the 33 yr old ones. They are better than the junk on ebay. And they are just dust covers.
The bowl gaskets are $8 set, but are cut a little "generous". They work, but have to be "stuffed in" to work. :-(
 
Yea I saw your remarks about those bowl gaskets on another thread...Might just try the make your own route as Nessism does/suggests...
