    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.

Cut it off???

I am putting a 92 gsxr 1000 front end on my 80 gs1100. It has the anti dive feature with an electrical connection of some sort. What is this for? Can I just remove it & fill the hole w/epoxy?

Frankly I would say USE it!! The early gixxers had supposedly EXCELLENT anti dive (it was an electronic servo, instead of brake fuid pressure) That worked off the brake switch. Hook it up, see how you like it. I have a set of first gen GSXR forks i will eventually be using on my ES and I plan to use it..

You will need to check the axles, and length of the forks but those are RSU 1st Generation and not USD 2nd Generation forks.

If they are close to 29.5" axle center to top of stantion then they are 86-88 1100 GSXR (v.s. GSXR 750 forks). If the axles are 15mm then it is 86 whereas the 87-88 are 17mm.
 
I see the axles are 17mm & the forks are 29.5" long, so they are 87-88 gsxr 1100.

As far as the electrical anti dive feature, I guess I will try it once I figure how to wire it into my brake switch.

Thanks for the info guys.

87-88 is the same as I have on the front of my ED. I have Racetech emulators which makes the antidives inoperable so I swapped the 83 ED antidives on with fakie brake lines to make it look operable. :eek:
