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.

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.

GS750 Replaear brake disk and calliper options?

Hi
New to the site and veray impressed with the wealth of knowledge on here!

I have a couple of 1977 GS750 that I am working on and I am in the process of fitting a twin disk front brake set up on one of them with the help of Dan?s adaptor kit, cbr 296mm disks / gpx calipers, goodridge, bandit MS et al.

Having realised just how much weight this takes off the bike and how much better the brakes are it started me thinking about the rear brake. Given that the rear calliper weighs in at about a ton and with the slightest of encouragement it locks up the rear wheel, I wondered if there were any rear brake conversions / swaps similar to the excellent front brake upgrade by Dan?

I did have a search through the threads herein but no luck. I don?t want to ask a question that has been covered already, so if there is an existing thread on this, can someone point me in the right direction please.
