    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.

Seat for GS1100E

I?ve got a spare seat for my 83 1100 and would like to use it for longer rides. Any one put extra padding on the stock foam or any other way to get a softer seat?
 
motorcycle seat mod gel

A lot of people do something like this. Make a pocket/depression in the seat, insert a gel pad covered by a little memory foam and then cover the entire area with a thin low density foam to make the cosmetics a little better. There are a lot of EBay sellers for the materials and google will find some instructions.

EDIT..the video from Ichiban Moto is not to be taken seriously but the other ideas on the link are okay. You might watch the Ichiban for a laugh.
