    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.

Pic of the week game

I've made allot of things for bikes over the years, but the most resent useful item was the trailer and hitch that I made out of a 650L frame. I built it to bring home 1100E engine from LA. then a few camp outs and wood hauling on my place, still using it nd its next trip is to Toledo Or. last of June.

I have quite a few, but this is one of the most recent and my current favourite on my GS. Just tickled that I could put modern instruments on this old bike for $60 and a few hours’ time.

Rich82GS750TZ I was impressed when I laid on those a few days back. One of those items I tend to look at from time to time but never pull the trigger on. Looks good!
 
The ignition relay made a huge difference in starting. It can sit for months and after priming the carbs for 10 seconds, the starter spins for two seconds and it fires up. It was never that easy to start before the relay.

(Ignore the blue RTV sealant on the coils. I replaced the wires and had to seal up the holes)

 
Dang a bunch of good;uns this weel, TSCC on GS1000, CV carbs with no choke cable, modern instruments on GS, but got to vote for the one thinking backwards. Voting for Rob S. for modifying his oil cooler to make it not do what it is supposed to do... Rob, hope you don't use that kind of thinking on your side stand, modifying it to not do what it is supposed to do wouldn't be good.
 
Voting for Jedz123. I've seen it in person. And it is an engineering marvel.:clap: Really, I just like the composition.

Actually, before I replaced the fork springs, it was two bricks!

Voting for Trevor's tricked out wheels. :applouse:
