    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.

Hi there,

New to the forum - fixing up an '81 GS1100E. I see why you love these things. Anyways, I've read that some owners have installed '88/'89 GSXR 750 and 1100 cams with good success. However, I notice that the GSXR exhaust cams do not have the tachometer worm gear on them....how do you get your tach drive if you install these cams :confused:
 
You don't! Simple as that. Call me at 714--356-7845 if you have questions as I do this mod quite a bit & specialize in GS 1100s & 1150s. Ray.
 
OK, so with the GSXR cam you have to go with electronic tach (and ignition with a tach output I'm guessing).

The other thing is that these cams are bit shorter than than gs cams. Doesn't look like it would be enough to have a great effect on them, but are they still lubricated enough when in the GS?

I'm only asking because there are a pair that are easily available to me.
 
Don't take a chance on oiling the cams. Buy a top end oiler and you won't have to worry. They are cheap and easy to install. And who needs a tach anyways...
