    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.

ok, guys,

i am putting my rear m/c back together on my 78 gs 750. it is the m/c with the separate reservoir attached by a short hose. my question is this:

is there a washer between the nipple that the rubber hose hooks up to, and the m/c body? i cant remember....stupid, i know, i should have taken some pics. i have this random nylon washer laying around, but is isnt really the "right" size, and i dont think it is right. rrrr.....so stupid.....all these little parts laying around my garage.....didnt i learn anything from my carb rebuild????

thanks!! oh, and the fische/my clymer manual does not show this tiny detail....

EDITED, COPPER WASHER IS VISIBLE. TYPO ON MY PART, SORRY

Hi Greg,

If by nipple, you mean the banjo bolt on the pressure line, yes, there should be a copper washer on both sides of the hose, bolt head side and M/C side.
If you mean the rubber hose from the reservoir to the M/C, then here is what mine looks like, there is a washer visible: (be kind, she's in recovery from her PO)
