• This forum allows conversation on non-controversial topics, therefore no politics or religion. "The Campfire" is an area meant for casual, civil discussions. Deliberate anti-social activity including personal insults, profanity, pornography, racism, threats and purposely inflammatory posts may result in suspension of forum access or possibly a permanent ban from GSR.

    The words insight and incite are pronounced the same. But one of them will get you banned and the other will not. Before hitting the Submit button be certain which of the two better describes your post.

    Welcome!
    Register to access the full functionality of the GSResources forum. Until you register and activate your account you will not have full forum access, nor will you be able to post or reply to messages.

    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.

And heads up, today is 12/14, and we'll vote on this contest on 12/20.
Next contest begins 12/12, with vote on 12/27.

I'm all for continuing in the new year -- shall we treat 12/28 to 1/3 like a normal week?
 
Thanks for doing the count, Glen.

Sure....why not?
 
Again, thanks for the votes Gents.
I really did like the giant U pic from Roger.

Bikes are hibernating for a while so archives it is.

This week let's do a theme on "gas tanks". If you have a bike you have one of these so hopefully we get a big entry list.
Maybe a new paint job, a reflection in the tank, raindrops beading on a fresh waxing, tanks hanging from the rafters. It doesn't even have to be a GS tank.

 
I have to go with Murdoch as well. That really is an awesome looking header set. Bet it sounds awesome too!

That Alphabet system does sound fantastic from about 6-9000rpm.
In this pic you can see how open the "competition" baffle is in the muffler.
Low revs on the street for sure.

if you're wondering what RLAM means: Rally Like A Mutha!
RLAP is Rally Like A Pilla, homage to a deceased friend who really knew how to rally.

This week let's do a theme on "gas tanks". .

.................. or a reflection in the tank, ................

What sort of weirdo would have anything like that......?


You have been seeing this since 2009.

This was my third bike, and it was gold and blue when I got it.
I bought a fairing from someone here and painted it to match (I added the lowers later but this is the better photo)
I got the SUZUKI decal on ebay, and discovered it's reflective tape.
I had a friend cut some decals to say GS700E.
And the same friend made me a dozen or so decals of the circuit rider, the emblem of Methodist pastors.
I have that decal on my 650 (and my phone and my laptop too).
 
Tell us about any specific lighting for this shot. Or is that just the overhead shop lights?

Dave, the pic from underneath was taken outside in the driveway under the shade of a locust tree.
The photo in the garage was indeed just florescent shop light. Both taken with an old Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ5
 
I can play in this one. This is my bike, not long after it got painted in 2006.
It is unfortunate that there is a shadow from the brake lever, but this is the best "tank" shot I have.

The top of the tank shows my love of angels.
(The first picture is my entry.)
