    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.

Need help with 1983 GS1100E airbox....Which one is correct?

I'm working on a 1983 GS1100E and have two different airboxes and do not know which one is correct. Looks like they both will fit but I want to get the correct one on this bike.

So, anybody have, or have owned, a stock 1983 GS11000E that can tell me which one is correct?

First this one:

Then this one:

So which one is the correct stock airbox? Or do I have two incorrect airboxes for this bike?
 
My "83" 1100E has the one in the 1st pic, the smooth one. I didn't buy the bike new, but have owned it for ny-on 20yrs. no reason to believe it doesn't have the orig. air boxes.
 
Thanks guys! Almost every picture that I found on the ole' interweb, of a 1983 GS1100E bike that doesn't have pods, shows the smooth one.

That's the one that I put on the bike. Looks like I lucked out this time!

Now on to the next issue!
