    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

I have finished my winter project, a 1980 GS850, and would like to share some before and after pictures with everyone but don't know how to get them on here. Any help would be appreciated or I can e- mail my photos to someone who can.​

Nice looking bike!
A big transformation from stock.
Only one stab at posting pics before succeeding? You are way ahead of me.
 
Lookin good. If I had a suggestion it would be to break up the seat somehow. Maybe paint the grab rail white and put it back on. I'm jealous of your painting skill.
 
Is that rear wheel a 17" still? somehow it looks like an 18" but I didn't think any of the shafties had 18s. The bike looks great!
 
just a 17 inch rear wheel. I cut the rear fender out--maybe that is what makes it look big.I lowered the front in the upper clamp just a bit. Thanks for the compliments!
 
Very nice! What front fender is that? The original painted or something off another bike? How about the mirrors?

Cheers...
 
original fender, bar end mirrors from emgo[?]--they suck --I need new, maier fairing from dennis kirk
