    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.

Hi

I have been lurking around the site reading and learning for a while now.

Live in Western Australia and reliving my youth rebuying the bikes (or models) I had owned or wanted .

I purchased my first Katana 1100 in 1981 and sadly had to sell a couple of years later.

Now, currently have 1982 Katana 1100, GS1000S N and a GS1000S T with a genuine 16000 k's (10000 miles).

My wife has a 1991 Katana 250

Welcome to the forum Tom.

Sounds like you have some interesting bikes.

Was fortunate enough to have worked Australian and New Zealand police in Sudan.

G'day mate.
 
Welcome to the site, Tom.
We didn't get the 400cc in Canada let alone the 250.
Cool that your wife rides a Kat.
 
Hi!

Welcome. Hopefully you'll find some interesting bits in the links below.

If you are here you probably have a 30 year old motorcycle that needs about 20 years worth of maintenance. In the links below you'll find maintenance lists, documentation, wiring diagrams, "how to" guides, vendor links, tips, tricks, and a whole lot of GS goodness. This is your "mega-welcome". Let's get started. :)

Let me dump a TON of information on you and share some GS lovin'. :D

I just stopped by to welcome you to the forum in my own, special way.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. The links are brilliant.
 
Welcome, I'm in WA (that's NOT Washington for some readers) as well. You weren't at the 2015 Bike near the Burswood Casino show by any chance?
