    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...

I have a GS650G but with an GS850 Master Cylinder system (dont ask why... but it works lol)

I was wondering if anyone has made a modifcation so it doesnt use the slide method to switch on the brake lights when the front brakes are applied? .... perhaps if someone has managed to make a micro switch work or perhaps something else??

I can get the slide system new.. but I was wondering if someone has come up with a better method?

\There is one alternative.It use the banjo bolt for your brake and uses the pressure in the lines.I forgot what it is called but do a search on it.I bought a new switch for 12 bucks and it works fine.It is no big deal really.
 
It's not too bad ......All the parts are available for the switch from Bike Bandit or Alpha Sports. Pretty simple to rebuild, but one has to be careful that parts don't go flying across the garage when working on it.
