    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.

Been here sitting thinking about the future of my bike, do I leave it stock or go down the mod route.

I modified my Fj1200 when I had it by installing a FZR1000 rear end in it, made a world of difference.

With the GS1100G I now have, I was wondering what front end can I replace it with, is it a straight swap over or is there mods to do, and then what do I do to the rear seen as its shaft drive, can a wider rear wheel be fitted or do I have to change from shaft the chain drive.

Any and all help would be more than appreciated, or point me in the right direction to previous threads on this.
 
Well for the front everybody changes over to the newer GSX-R setup. It's mostly straight forward but you need different sized bearing for the steering stem. Look for 80gs1000 I believe he did the whole change over including a rear monoshock conversion. For the back I am stumped, I have a shaftie as well and would love to get a wider rear tire on. Maybe somebody has some ides.
 
There's only one person on here attempting to modify a shaft in that way... I don't think it's easy!

gsx 1100g rear end is the only one i can think of that might suit, theres a local guy has done the conversion but i dont know what is involved i'm still trying to track him down for another member & having no luck yet :oops:

as for the front end the world is your oyster, anything can be made to fit reasonably simply :-D
