    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...

    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.

GS750 Airbox, Air Filter Sealing.

Waiting for new rubbers to arrive, and Ive bought some weatherseal to do the Air Box covers. I was thinking, that adding weatherseal to the top of the air filter would seal it against its bracket. I've just read the, ' Air Intake System Repair-GS850G by BassCliff ' on here, and its not mentioned. Is this a good idea?

I used a very thin household type self-adhesive weatherstrip on the underside of my air-filter box cover. Works great. Looked like there was probably something like it on there from factory that had worn away long ago.
 
Done the weatherstripping on the horizontal mid shelve, and also the side covers.
The NEW rubbers arrived today. Shocked, shocked at how good they seal/fit against the airbox, and how soft and flexible they are.
Wow. The old ones must be 44 years old and are rigid, possibly shrunk, and they have no real seal against the airbox at all.
Excited about getting them fitted to the bike and seeing the difference they must make to the tuning and syncing for the carbs.
Great forum, real knowledge, and friendly too.
Cheers.
