    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.

Organic Brake Pad Sources

I need a set of pads for my 1000 and the last set I used were the Vesrah Green Organics. It now appears they do not make them anymore and are showing only these available as replacements.

GS1000GL T,X 80-81 * VD-322JL VD-306JL * SD-322 SD-306

According to thier website the JL suffix is for the sintered type which I would prefer not to use if possible and the SD prefix is the semi metallic which I am not sure is much better on our old rotors. I realize pads & pad cost is a pretty debatable topic but I would prefer to run organic type pads if possible. Any thoughts, different brands to use, or suggestions are welcome. Thanks
