    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.

GS1150 fan with a 84 GS1150ES and a 85 GS1150E

Hi Everyone, I am a long time Suzuki fan with a 84 GS1150ES and a 85 GS1150E. I had a 85 GS1150E back in my Navy days over 25 years ago. I sold it and always regretted letting it go. After much debate and some changes in my life I decided to get one again. It took a long time to find a good one and I did. That is my 85. While looking around on eBay for parts I stumbled across a 84 GS1150ES that I felt compelled to have in early 2020. So now I have 2. Mostly original in better than average shape.

I've been screwed over by 2 mechanics and I can't let that happen again. I've got a manual and I invested in some tools. I am enjoying working with my hands and figuring things out.

The bikes are in Encinitas (North County San Diego). I mostly ride around my house and the 101 on weekend mornings. I'd love to find some local folks to ride or wrench with.

Thanks Steve! I know Rapid Ray. He is great and extremely knowledgeable. I met him on a facebook suzuki group. He did the valve job on the 84 and together we did the wiseco install. I'm talking to him about both of these bikes all the time :).
