    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.

GS1100g exhaust on my '79 GS1000e?

I need a new exhaust system for the '79 GS1000e I just picked up, and found a guy that is parting out a GS1100g. Don't know the year of the bike. Might the exhaust be a direct bolt-on? Don't really want to do any mods, because it will be temporary while I search for a 4 into 1 system. It's dirt cheap, so I may go with it if it bolts on. Thanks!

Yes, it bolts right on

You'll notice it's slightly different than your stocker, it takes a GS rider to notice

Go buy it
 
Not a straight bolt on since the rear mounts are different. I suspect it could be made to fit though.
 
Guess I need to just go look at it. The 150 mile round trip wouldn't be bad if I could do it on the bike, but I can't carry it home on the bike. Funny thing, though. I once took a 425 mike bike trip to buy a $25 tour pack mount for my HD. Hope I don't forget my tape measure.

Ede, Is 82 the year they switched the mount on the pipe?

I know Sandy has G pipes on his 79
 
Hey Todd,

Good to know this, both my 78 and my 80 1000's need exhaust system replacements.
