    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

a little back story on me....bought an 07 meanstreak SE damaged in a car accident......brought it back to 100% health....had to sell it due to not working...havent had a bike since.....before that bike, i had helped my dad rebuild this gs1000 and he traded it to someone for a cop bike he had kz1000....well just in the last couple days, that guy bought a GW and decided to sell the gs1000, so he let my dad have first shot at it for 500.00....so my dad knowing i had no bike called me and this weekend i will be the proud new owner of this bike.....its got a new rebuild on carbs and various other things....

my first order of business will be to get shocks that will lower it so i can feel like im more in control.....any thoughts?

by the way im 41, name is Ric (ecoli) and will be around here for awhile!!!
 
What year/model? Shaft or chain? Where do you live? You could try to reshape the seat foam to get a shorter seat height instead.
