    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.

New toy.

I'm really looking forward to diving into this one!! 32000kms but will need a carb rebuild, fork seals, etc.... Much more comfortable riding position than my 1150ef.

I'm a little confused. My chart shows the 1150ef and 1150es both being made in '84 and '85. I know E is the 1984 year code and F is '85.

What are the differences between ef and es?
 
Hey Rob,

E (unfaired)
ES (1/2 fairing)
EF (fully faired)

add the year code and you get

ED ('83)
ESD
EFD

Is that the one that was for sale on this side of the Georgia Strait?
 
I saw the bike in the flesh today. Mark you did very well! Nice clean, solid original bike you have there, that's all stock and low kms to boot! Just needs a little lovin and it sounds you have that covered.
Congrats again!!
 
Almost done. Just needs the new tires installed. JOY!!!

Looking good! What kind of seat is that? When you get some decent seat time could you please report back on how it feels? My stocker is getting a bit sacked out near the gas tank.....
 
The seat is just a reupholstered stocker with new foam. I'm just a little worried that it might push me into the tank a little more than the stock one I replaced.
 
Sure looks nice and tidy. It must just be me but that bike looks a little more stretched than the typical 1150, not sure why. I'll keep an eye out for you on the roads.
