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...
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.
Wheels maybe. The stock rims on a 78 - 79 1000 are 19" front & 18" rear. Is the 1000 an L model? If so' the rear wheel is 17". The stock rims on an 81 750L are 19" front & 16" rear. What year is your 1000? Does it have spokes or mags? The front should work, the rear will require some measuring.
I dumped the 1000 on a gravel road. Cracked the fairing, bent the handle bars and right foot peg, got road rash on the engine cover and a little on the exhaust pipe. (The exhaust are some awful aftermarket turnouts, so that didn't hurt my feelings to much.) Oh yeah and a lot of road rash on me. Now I remeber why I will never ride while wearing shorts! I wish I was wearing a jacket, I would have saved some skin on my back. Anyway enough whining.
