    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.

Late model 6'' rear wheel conversion

I'm running a McIntosh swing arm with a 6 inch Hayabusa rear wheel. I have a 5/8 offset 530 front sprocket. My issue now is the chain is hitting the the inside of the peg, where the 2 bolts hold it on to the rearset. What is the best solution to fix this? It seems if I grind the bolts, there won't be anything left to secure the peg. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks
 
Extend the peg mounts out so you have more meat for the threads outboard of the tire.
 
If it's very minimal then use a thinner chain... There is a competition grade O ring 520 chain that is strong but thin. I remember a guy who Monoshocked a GS1000 on here using it. (PJ)

I think finding a 5/8 offset GS spline 520 sprocket might be tough...
 
The whole build thread is on here... he had a source for those too! :)
