    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.

Gs1100e front sprocket cover

So, I have officially started my gs1100e build....and within the first hour, had a snap ring shoot across my shop into some black hole never to be seen again, and may have already made a ill thought out mistake. After removing the front sprocket cover, I saw that inside, the foam/insulation/cotton candy stuff (no idea what it is) was cracked and torn. So...I tore it all out into 7 million pieces. The aluminum under it is beautiful by the way. Is there a replacement piece of foam available that can be glued back in its place? With the heat buildup, and moving parts in there, I don't think spray foam would be a suitable replacement. Any guidance would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
 
Wow, I totally put this in the wrong section. Mods, if you could move to general maintenance I would be grateful.
 
I assume it's there for noise damping only (like the damper on the front sprocket itself that gets left out when using aftermarket sprockets). It's not critical, you can go without it....
