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...

I'm thinking about either making a adapter or buying one if it's resonable price wise? I do have a oil temp gauge aswell so I don't want to lose that either. Thanks

If you are talking about an 8V look for a member whose handle is "Terry"
 
I might have one or could possiably make one for you. I'll check my stash of parts. You did see the tutorial on how to make one didn't you? It's pretty simple really as long as you have a drill press.
 
thanks

thanks

Thanks again for the response and will check all areas mentioned.

Im trying to hook up an oil cooler to my 82 1100g and sent an email to Terry but no response. Reading another forum a user said similar. Anyone know someone else that makes the adapter plates? Id make it myself but have neither the skills or tools :( Id be willing to purchase a whole kit (plate, lines, cooler, brackets) if anyone has that lying around.

Thanks for the plug there Dan, but since Terry lives "down unda" he may be worth looking up there. He has posted about his SOHC Honda's before so you might want to look for him on some Honda forums. If all else fails I can help but my adapters are somewhat "industrial", as opposed to the machined from billet look some prefer.:cool:

nessism, put me down for one. live out here in the palm springs area and think it may just help on those 120 degree days.lol....saw the tutorial, dont think im wanting to even attempt that 15 degree hole:D
 
If anyone is interested, I have a custom Lockhart thermostat controlled cooler setup adapted to fit a GS1100 (I modified a stock '83 1100 o/f cover to plumb the hoses) . PM me .

Think I'm going to build up a few of these and have them available for people in need. They are pretty easy to make but you do need a drill press and the proper sized drill and tap for the fittings. If anyone is serious in wanting one please drop me a PM. This particular type of adapter requires the use of an oil pressure sensor of the type shown - about $11 from NAPA or similar.

I'd be interested. sent you a PM
 
Would any one have a dimentioned drawing of the oil cooler adaptor plate as to mesure mine I need to get the carbs out and the less I do that the happier I will be.
