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.

First, don't attach the pic. Upload the original to someplace like photobucket. Photobucket will give you a link you a link to the pic. Then post the link here like so:
your link [/ img]
No spaces, though.

Saffa,
The bike looks great! What kind of swingarm are you using and what mods did you use to make it work?
Thanks, Supavert

was a 6 to 8 inch over stock jmc arm made for a gs1000 to use a 5.5 inch wheel with under slung caliper.
bolted straight in . just needed to stretch the torque arm and machine some spacers for the wheel. good thing was the arm is like the stock one in that its not offset to any one side so finding the centre for the wheel was easy. even allows for use of stock rear brake master cylinder.
was abit tatty when i got it ...but nothing a bit of elbow grease couldnt sort out.
jmc still make em but like to take their time and your money...this however was sold onto me by someone on oldskoolsuzuki for not alot of money

Mine isn't really custom, but it's not stock either. There are some great bikes on here.
My uncle bought this new. Original paint, with new clear. Complete resto and overhaul winter 07/08

One quick question, how often do people ask if that is some '09 model year bike?
As far as the decal, leave it blank, keep the yayhoos guessing!

I just discovered this thread. Here is a pic of my GS550. Nothing too fancy yet as I have a very low budget and not much Know-How, but I am doing everything myself... Thank GAWD for forums like this and Google!
I bought the bike for $360 running but in rough cosmetic shape... I decided that I was going to do some Mods that I could afford this winter and over the course of owning it, I would do more stuff to it... So far I bought a new tank (Painting it eventually) Cut about 10 inches off the back end of the frame, and am mounting a Flat Tracker Seat to the beast. I have also put on Superbike Bars and bought a left-hand mirror, that just doesn't match the right. It came off of an 82 I believe. Anyway, I've been watching the $50 Appearance Mods Thread and am getting a few good ideas there. Any suggestions or feedback would be great! Remember this is my VERY FIRST bike. I've never ridden or owned one before... Just picked this up in October right after getting my Permit...
I think I need to get a Flicker or Photobucklet account in order to post more pics, but I have a few more in my Photo Album in my profile. Feel free to browse...
