    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.

Hi! My first posting ( I'm from South Africa) GREAT site eh? I've got an '81 GS1000G with 22000miles/34000km on it, I've shortened the frame and seat, lopped off a lot of weight, busy painting it good ole up-to-your-elbows cellulose black. I'm busy making T-bars from raw 7/8 tubing, and generally having fun with stainless bolts and a general eye-candy makeover for this venerable Suzz. Years ago I had a GS1000S, now I have a SHAFT, yeehah. Tell me kind folk, how can I guy who lives far from the retail action on aftermarket spares get his hands on the above via the web? Looking for trusted and dependable source who'll take a credit card and ship to me.

Any help much appreciated.
 
Goose - Koni motorcycle shocks are no longer made. You will probably have to get them off Ebay by now if you are stuck on getting Konis. Another company is now making Konis motorcycle shocks under the "Ikon" brand. Try a web search for info on them. I didn't find a direct manufacturer's site... Hagon in the UK makes good motorcycle shocks and they are priced reasonably compared to Performance (at least to me). They have a website and I have purchased shocks from them before and can recommend them:

Good luck!
