    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Is it a 750 or 1100? You need to give us some details in order to give you any advice. Looks like my 80 1100L in the dark

The bike is a 1981 GS 750 L. Is the Clymer somewhat accurate?, E model better than L model <----- True/False Is it gonna be worth it??? Flat Black BBQ paint here and there. Its been off the road for a few years I'm guessing. But does it ever scream till the bowls run dry (prime), the petcocks shot, seats shot, exhaust is shot (Baffles are all bouncing around inside of it) Both side covers are missing. Airbox to carb boots are nice and solid. Back tire is bald. Boy does it sound good when it starts. I can almost get a trip around the backyard with it. Clutch fells nice. The first couple gears shift well. I'm thinking I will be able to find all parts for reasonable costs ( ebay, here, etc.). I'm somewhat mechanically inclined. Not a mechanic though. I have access to all car mechanics tools. The rust is not nearly as bad when its sunny out. I think I can get a lot of it to clean up. I'd love to make next years Cabot Trail Run. I'm not looking to make bike of the month (that would be nice). I want to be able to go out every other Saturday in the summer for a nice drive. I need to be able to take my wife if she wishes to go. And I'd like to drive away from my stepbrothers 1984 Honda Shadow 750. I like this bike because I think it seems like it will be reasonably easy to work on. With everyones help here I am somewhat confidant I think I can pull everything together. My plan is to do all of the work myself. I am also relatively new to the whole computer world... Any of those tips along the way will be much appeciated as well. Thanks. Jason
