    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.

My '84 GS750EF - Pics at last!

No pics right now but I'll be sure to get some side shots before it goes on the lift for surgery later this week. I didn't change jets but I was a little rich on my hybrid exhaust and I can't remember right now what I have in there... so actually yes, I think I am up one size on the mains form a few years ago but I'm not sure right now and my notebook for the bike is MIA.

I think I'm going to go back to stock jetting and needle height and then start by raising the needles have a notch.

No pics yet but if you look at the pics I posted the other day you can see the header pretty well and if you look at the pics on the first page the muffler is in basically the exact same place. It's a hair father out but really the other ones are a little too close, the axle covers hit under compression if I have them on.

I'd say that if you don't care about lower fairings or center stand the Bandit pipe is a good choice for a GS750ES. I'd think about selling you this one but I'm going to try and mod a centerstand to work or maybe mock up a 4:1 that works with the stock stand and have it welded up.
 
Next time I take the lowers off do you want pictures of my Supertrapp?Retains the center sand with the only mod being you have to move the left side stand spring to the right side.Clears the lowers with no problems either.

no worries, I was curious at to how far it stuck out on the side as you described earlier. But it doesn't seem to be that noticeable from your description now.
Perhaps buy some sections of plumbing pipe and bends, mock up the mid-pipe shape around your center stand and take it to a welder.
