    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...

  • This forum is for placing reviews for parts, accessories, gear and service as it relates to your GS motorcycle. The key here is "GS Related". There is a bit of latitude here but we don't want to see a review on Maytag washers just because that's what you use to clean your riding jacket in.

    Keep your review as factual as possible and please refrain from personal attacks. Posted articles will be reviewed by the Editors and may be removed at their discretion.

    So let's make this a useful addition to the forum! A special pat on the back goes to Hap Call for coming up with this great idea.

    The views expressed in this forum are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of "The GSResources" or the editors.

  • 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.

Rockauto Discount Codes

3079807728212518- 5% Off Your Purchase - Expires on 06/21/2015

This discount code will expire in about 2 weeks. Hurry and use it!

I`ve edited the last post with a new code. Yes, that last code didn`t worked, I`m not sure what happened, I must`ve copy/paste it an expired code without noticing. It was probably my mistake.

I usually take the codes for my sites and share them on this forum from http://www.retailmenot.com/view/rockauto.com?c=6845261, which I think is a reliable source.
 
Has anyone used a code put up by valmitchel and if so were there any issues?
...
 
3154637321594286

5% offGood through July 19, 2015

This seems to be the "best" and longest-lasting code active at the moment.


The edited numeric code posted by valmitchel works at the moment, but the alphanumeric codes do not. No idea where the alphanumeric codes came from.

It's easy enough to check -- just put a random part or two in your shopping cart, paste the code in, then click or tab somewhere else and the shopping cart will try to apply the code.


All: I think it would be best if we ONLY post codes that we personally receive in email. That way, we also know when they expire and that they're legit.


There's no point whatsoever in just going to retailmenot.com and posting what you find there. You can also find codes on other forums, but again, anyone can find these so there's no point in posting those codes here.
 
Recently ordered me some rear struts for the wifemobile. Saved about 50% versus a trip to the local auto parts chains for the same thing.

5% discount until Sep 13, 2015: 3361303121594286
 
Just got a new code!

Get those dumb ol' boring cages ready for winter...

Rockauto also sells motorcycle oil filters, so throw a few in your next order.

Wix oil filters for 4/8 valve GS models (three lobed o-ring) are part number 24931.

The Wix number for the 16V models (five lobed o-ring) is 24932 -- same filter, different o-ring.

I'm not quite sure what is going on with these Rock Auto codes but I think a good rule of thumb is that if the only posts someone ever makes to the forum is to put up a code and they do not otherwise identify themselves in any way, then we probably need to be wary. Report any such posts as they appear.

There are two ways to identify a post from a discount code spammer:

1) The code they post is no good. Because a) they made it up b) it has letters in it while genuine rockauto codes contain only numeric digits.

2) They always have a link to their website in their signature because all they really wanted was you for you click on that link and go to their page so they can reap the ad revenue. (Hint: the codes they have on their websites usually don't work either.)
 
Anyone got any current codes? We're dyin' over here.


This came up in another part of the forum. I did a little digging and found a couple of codes that worked in my testing:


I don't have a current one either, and no one's posted one in my discount code thread in a while.

Anyhoo, just Google "rockauto discount code" and ignore the first several dozen results -- they're from various useless scammers and spammers. Look for a result from a car or truck forum.

For example, this was deep on the second page of results:

5% Discount Code: 3C305D84888FCA
Expires: February 18th 2016


Both of these seem to work fine right now, but obviously I can't guarantee anything...

Some people report success with codes from retailmenot.com , but these have not proven reliable -- perhaps Rockauto disables codes that end up there or perhaps something else is going on. It's easy enough to check, anyway.

So far the numeric codes that RA sends to individuals have worked very reliably. The alphanumeric codes (in the above examples, they're forum postings directly from RockAuto) have been hit or miss.
 
Hey, anyone got any new RockAuto codes?

I'd rather spend all my money on motorcycling, but my wife feels I should still keep the cars running for some strange reason.

Thank you! It seems to me that they are being stingy with them, too.
 
HERE's a Castroil deal for free bluetooth speaker
Daydreaming about mounting one on MC handlebar and when I see chicks at stoplights I'll play this one slow song from "TopGun" ...It'll be funny, or just scary because my bike's still somewhat mean and ugly looking.
Like to play deathmetal occasionally since it oblitterates all cars lays waste to them, no matter what i try.
Dunno IF speaker is good, probably OK.(?)


This thread will probably save me atleast $20or $30 on new coil springs for front of my truck.
Thanks! :cool:
(One wheel is a little tilted in at top camber, tried bunch of stuff, down to new springs...independent front suspension Ford TTB I think it's called, forgot. F150 forum, awesome actually jams up my computer...jack up truck , camber good, let him down, tilted...thinking either spring OR the bearing in middle HAS to be...)

Now have an oil leak , found out to replace gasket have to remove motor mounts and hoist up engine...I hate cars ..geez some mCs are junk but pretty much ALL cars are cr@p looks like now...one simple gasket...Makes it hard to focus until repair that one.
 
Im down to entering my CC info but don't see anywhere to enter the promo code ....????
