    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...

Hello

I was wondering if it would at all be possible to swap the front wheel from my GS550 on my GS850 now I know there is the whole brake situation one haveing two and all. but is there a way to swap the brakets over to the other wheel? I would just get my hands dirty and do it and try but I have a lot to do so I thought I would ask first.

The main reason is cause the tire on my 550 is better for the twisties than the one on my 850. and im gunna sell my 550 soon so....

Thank you
Jake
 
Hi,

Why not just swap tires?


Thank you for your indulgence,

A 550 I rebuilt had a single disc but thre were holes on the other side covered by a cap. You could dual the rotors on the rim if need be.
