    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.

Hey guys, want to say thanks to everyone here on the forum, it has made wrenching on my bike a breeze. About a month ago I bought a non-running gs450 from a guy in Helena for 200 bucks, and today (after 250 for a cdi and a new rec/regulator... PO decided he was going to fix the cdi, and used a hammer to try to take the resin off....) i got her up and running. Thanks to bikecliff for the website and to cycleorings.com for the carb kit. This will be my first bike, thinking of turning her into a little cafe racer (shes missing some body pieces).

Hi, kellenc' ,fellow twin owner...yes those "Previous Owners" I guess most of us have a special place in our hearts for some of these, but at $200 it's hard to really hate :)

Post a picture here if you can, ugly or not.
 
I too got a $200 bike in Helena. Mine was from an older gentleman that just wanted to get rid of it because it was too heaver for him. I lucked out with a '81 GS1000G with a Vetter faring. I got it to start but it is put to one side for the winter and I'm working to collect parts.
