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.

The easiest and probably the one single mod that will give you the most bang for the buck is a set of RS flatslides. You could go with NOS, but that is just something you use for two or three seconds at a time. The flatslides are there forever.

I second that..... By the way that Billy passed me at triple digits, I can certainly say that he knows what he's talking about. And I think my 750 is in pretty decent shape. (pipe, pods, jets, and coils).........

Simple. Get a liter (+) bike. I went from GS850's to my GS1100GK, and it made all the difference.
That's probably the cheapest way to go, in the long run.

And they're paying in Canada $$$, too. That's just so sad.
You're going to end up paying at least US$250 for them, man. Billy can probably find a pair for $50, though.

$250 on Ebay is about what I've seen. I wish I could get them for fifty bucks. Also remember you need a push-pull throttle assembly. $599 new is a good price.

It's a 4.5" wheel. I just knocked out the GSXR bearings and used new GS sized bearings. You have to use a Katana 600 caliper hanger, GSXR rotor and caliper, and GSXR sprocket carrier and sprocket. The GS carrier doesn't fit the '88 and '89 4.5" wheel. You also use your GS carrier bearing and Katana bearing support in the sprocket carrier. The GS bearing support in the hub has to lengthened to match the length of the GSXR support. I just found a piece of pipe with the right ID and used JB Weld to glue about 1/2" of the pipe to the GS bearing support. The torque rod for the caliper has to be moved to the bottom of the swingarm. I shimmed my countershaft sprocket out by grinding down an old sprocket to use as a spacer behind the sprocket. I also used a hydraulic jack to spread the swingarm a little so everything goes in easier.

There are 3 sets of RS36 and 2 sets of RS38 carbs on Ebay right now. Too much carb for the 750's but great for liter class GS models.

Yeah, that's the story of my search for these carbs. 38s show up all the time, 36s occasionally, but I have yet to find a set of 34s. :evil:

Hang in there Luke, I've seen a few sets of RS34's this past year with just an occasional search. If I ever see any I'll let you know.
