    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.

Im rebuilding a 450 and wanted if anyone had a close up photo of the front brake caliper.. im not sure exactly that spring thing (the like metal wire with the the loops on each) goes to
 
Metal wire with loops... can you take a picture of it? On my bike, the only thing matching that description is the speedo cable holder which attaches to the fork via a separate bolt below the caliper bolts.

Alternatively, look at the parts diagrams on the websites of any OEM parts vendor, these often (but not always!) show how things are to be put together.
 
Thanks thats just what i needed you have anything like that for the carbs pete not quit sure where the throtle cable hooks up
 
Sounds like you need a visit from a fellow GSR member. Where are you? One of us might be close.
