    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.

Hi all, 1980 GS450L with a tank that had a HORRIBLE liner and whoever painted it got paint on the inside of the tank. Because it was lined, I can assume it has pin holes somewhere. Whole tank interior needs cleaned out and I have no time in the coming weeks. Where in the springs would you take it? Needs old liner removed and tested for leaks. Also, fuel cock strainer was broken so I need to figure that out, and the Z1 44mm fuel cock doesn't show up when filtered by model/year.


Also, I need lower bearing race on the steering head pulled, same question...


Thank you all in advance!!
 
try to find a radiator shop they maybe able to get liner out and braze any holes. You can do a search on here for tank liner and there should be several threads about it, but it not fun I can tell you getting it out. The lower bearing can be banged out, but I just took my dremel with a small cutting wheel and very carefully cut the race out then very carefully cut bearing enough to get it to bend inwards with screwdriver and then it should fall right out. terrylee
