    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.

Thinking about putting a new fusebox into my 1980 GS850. Has anyone ever done this and recommend and in particular. I want to get away from the glass fuses and put in a blade fuse box.

I use the clip together plastic fuse holders from maplins which means you can make up a fuse box for any amount of fuses or even a couple of seperate ones if space is tight

i also use the resettable trip type fuses when setting things up & working stuff out but find they tend to trip off in normal road use on a bike

I have a nice plastic 6-fuse block that has crimp-on connectors. It's brand new with the connectors, a LOT less than $45. PM me if you're interested.
 
I use the following parts from advance auto parts, Painless Wiring Fuse Block: 4 Circuit Fuse Block with Terminals Part Number: 30002 on my 79 gs750e. Worked out good
 
Go to any auto wrecking yard (junk yard) armed with a sharp pair of cutters and a phillips screwdriver. Pic any Japanese car produced in the last 20 years and 'go to town'. If you hunt about for a few minutes you'll find the exact shape and size that you are after. Probably cost you $5 (if that??).
