    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.

Getting GSXR Rear wheel?

What's up gang?

I have a gs1100e. I'm putting on an extended swingarm that's about 4 inches longer. I'm having a problem getting the rear wheel straight. My question is, should the clearance between the wheel and shocks be even on both sides? What size spacers would i need and where can I buy spacers for the clearance? Please forgive me, I'm trying to ask questions as best as I can.

By the way how can I post pics because I think that would help?


Thanks,
Supavert

You can also read these pages. As I went through it recently. I went off the front wheel to make the rear spacers and it worked out. But the 'right' way is to center the rear wheel in the frame.

The thread is about the B12 swing arm but can be applied to centering the rear rim to the frame with any swing arm. And I used a laser to figure the wheel spacer and to check the rear rim center afterwards.

Hi,

There's a guide on my website that explains all about how to post pictures here. Please help yourself to all of the other information there too. :)


Thank you for your indulgence,
