    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

Just showing off.

This is my 1983 Suzuki GS 550L. It would not be running without the extremely helpful people on this forum! ;)

In college I had an ad for the Kaw Z1000 LTD on my wall (right next to the Sportster pics). It said, "Z and be seen." I wanted that bike.

One was up for sale before I bought my GS11. It didn't grab me the way it used to. It might have been because it wasn't shiny and new like the one in the ad, but it just seemed so...dated. Like platform shoes and bell bottoms. A passing fad.
 
It doesn't have a speedo, so I mounted my phone on the handlebars to use a GPS MPH application.
It read about 88 to 90 before my phone flew off. Just fast enough to travel through time.
Speaking purely in numbers, I'm sure there are faster 550s, but mine is always the first to the destination. :cool:
