    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.

Just sold and delivered my 1100G yesterday. Reposted it on CL and it was sold in 1 hour at full price. I guess maybe I ask reasonable prices compared to the overpriced or non-roadworthy stuff on CL or e-bay! ....or maybe timing is everything?
40 something yr old guy getting back into bikes for easy money. Hopefully he cares for it as much as I did for the last 3 seasons, although I don't think he can turn a wrench....I changed the oil and filter because it was due in 100 miles for him before turning it over, at his request.;)

My 1100E will be delivered in a few weeks to a fellow forum member. It is a sweet bike.
No more decisions to make in the morning!!!!
That will leave me with no GSes and sole riding on my XVZ1200, but for how long?..........:(
Do I have to turn in my badge at the door????:o

Thanks, but you're 2k miles away. Besides, I need to wallow in my self-pity for a few days:cry:

Here is what I'm looking at.....I can pretend it's has any motor I want....340hp, V8, 8 speed, etc......:eek:

Maybe you could put some pedals on it.........

And you can keep your card.:p
 
Congratulations, Steve. Welcome to the club of former GSers. That's a fine machine you have now, replacing the G.

Former GS ownership is painless, I assure you. If the Venture weren't such a great bike, I'd miss my GK even more. I rode GS shafties for 23 riding seasons, and I have many terrific memories of all those years and miles.

If you're going to own just one bike, the Venture is a fine one to do the job. On with the "new." ;)

Nah, I think you can stick around. LOL I sold my 1150 three years ago and have been exclusively riding a Bandit 12 since then. I still have my 81 450, but its only accumulated about 150 miles in the four years I've had it. eheh
