    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.

Hi Guys, I just bought a used 1980 gs850 exhaust to put on my 1978 gs750. All 4 of the down pipes have an open threaded hole towards the bottom of the pipe. It goes through both layers of the pipe. One of the pipes seems to be drilled and missing the threaded insert.
Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas on what it could be for?



 
That makes sense, thanks. Should I look for the missing bung at my local auto parts store then? Are they usually threaded in or friction fit? I was thinking plugging them with bolts and high temp RTV, think it will hold? Or should I weld it?
 
google nutserts we use them at work often, there are cheap kits you can buy. There needs to be a correct sized tool for each nutsert.
 
The 02 sensors were put on by a po.
Was a way to tune.
Read a article on it for my Seca I I .
Being on the downpipes gives it away.
Some would insert the sensors only while working on bike.
Some would mount the E-bay reader on the bars and use it all the time.
Has been a long time since I have read the thread or been on that forum.
