    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.

Looking for good shop in southern Ohio

I am looking for good shop or mechanic in the Columbus, OH area to clean or rebuild carbs on 83 GS1100E. I've gotten suggestions on guys in Akron and Louisville but would like to try closer to home. (Chillicothe, OH) Since I retired I don't have the room or time to do these and just want to get it done, but done right of course. There was a shop here but he retired too. ;( Thanks for suggestions.
 
There is a member Steve , who used to post a lot here but hasn't in a while. He's located in SW Ohio. You could try to send him a PM, but can't say if he'll reply. I know Steve used to rebuild a lot of carbs for people, with good reviews. Not sure if he's still doing this. Anyone know if Steve is still around?

There are other members, Nessism, is one, but he's in Cali. He also rebuilds carbs, with good reviews. I'm sure there are others.
 
Steve was one of the technical leaders on the GSR for many years, and with good reason. He helped a LOT of people, including rebuilding a lot of carbs for the folks here. That said, something went drastically off the rails with him, ultimately resulting in a very ugly situation which is documented here...

This situation is inexplicable, and seemingly out of character for Steve. But, it is what it is at this point.
