    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.

Higher Bars for 1980 GSX750ET

Hi guys,

I have the above model bike with the lower bars fitted as standard. I have seen my model bike (in both 750E and 1100E)in adds with higher bars similar to G bars - it must have depended which market the bike was meant for or was perhaps an option. The vast majority of new bike adds from the time that I have seen have the higher bars.

I have attached a couple of adds to show the bars I mean.

I am wanting to fit a set of these higher bars to my bike - I'm not old but my body is! Can anyone tell me if these were a bar specific for this model or if they were just G bars or earlier E bars?

I imagine it would be fairly expensive to ship bars from the US? Haven't had a lot of luck finding a set here. If anyone in Oz has G or late 70's E bars they don't need anymore please let me know.

cheers :)

this is the same model and colour as mine but with the high bars. I think it may belong to a US member here?
 
Don't "Bikemaster" sell bars through the bikeshops there? Very cheap & decent enough. Several different bends including one not too far off stock G.

www.z1enterprises.com can get them & I believe he ships international. The ones I just ordered were $18!
 
Salty Monk - thanks :) I've looked at those before and the bends are closer to what I have now, then they have something more extreme like an L model which I don't want.

tkent - would like to hang onto my old ones - PM sent. :)
