    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.

Oil cooler for 81 GS1000G

It's hot here in Oz, and will get hotter as summer progresses. (Today was 95 degrees and it's only early November.) So I am thinking of an oil cooler.

The 81 model doesn't have the plugs each side of the filter cover. And I have heard of coolers with a take-off fitting to replace the filter cover or to replace the pressure switch cover.

I've also searched this site and have read everything I can find on oil coolers (including the old FAQ). Trouble is, there's nothing about fitting them to this motor, nothing about where to buy the bits to make one up, no pics of anyone else's work. I think changes to the forum software have meant that a lot of earlier postings are no longer available.

So, who has done the conversion?
How did you do it?
Do you have pics for this highly visual NLP type?

Any advice and discussion is welcome.

Do a search on author brs127s he has done a lot of work on his oil cooler and documented really well. I have made an oil cooler adapter for my gs1000e which I think is the same as yours. So if you would like some pictures I could send some to you. I searched and searched the internet for a adapter but could not fine one. So I built one. Hope this helps.

:) I also have a 1979 GS 1000 G and looked for an oil cooler, did not found yet how to proceed. Let me know if you find anything...

Hi Chris,

I've just sent you a PM about this. I saw in a different post that you have pics to send, then I got back to this thread.

Is it the same adaptator for GS 1000 and GS 1000 G?
Thank you.
