    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.

Hello everyone! Finally picked up this beaut from a coworker. Wanted to introduce myself and what I was working with. It will go under the knife soon once moto lift arrives. I will definitely be asking a ton of questions so please be patient!

Welcome to the site, Mdelosrey.
Some cool bits on your bike. Big bore kit?
Looks like an early Yosh pipe. What is the badge?
Aftermarket rims too. How wide is the rear? 3"?

Aftermarket rims too. How wide is the rear? 3"?

From what I gather is its a Yoshimura 850cc motor (under 10k miles), exhaust was hand bent Yoshi also. Rims are D.I.D, unsure of width as of now but the rear has a 130 on it. From the looks of it, it looks like it can run a wider tire but the rear caliper "brace?" is really close to the tire. Maybe if I change the geometry of that brace I can run a wider tire.
 
Someone put a lot of time effort and money into that one a long time ago.

I will be interesting to see what you do with it.
 
If that is a hand bent Yosh, take good care of it in the resto. Not many of them around.
A helpful GSer might be nearby if you put your location in your avatar.
 
Be careful not to hack that one up, fully restored it would be special.
 
Welcome! Nice bike. I look forward to seeing you get this one up and running.

Tell me about it.

Updated my location. I'll media blast the exhaust and decide if I want to coat it or wrap it.

It won't be "hacked" up.

Welcome! Nice bike. I look forward to seeing you get this one up and running.

Thanks, I hope to keep this project steamin! Awaiting a bunch of parts already. Disassembly as soon as moto lift arrives!
 
I noticed the smoothbores markings on the right side of the bank as well but the drain screws on the bowls threw me off.
Do you know which replacement bowls fit?
