    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.

The gs 450 is on the road after sitting 5 years. I am noticing a small amount of oil on the starter cover. Almost like a mist was hitting it out of the bottom of the tensioner. Is this a common thing. If it is a cheap fix i will fix it if not i will not worry about it. But i will have the carbs off the suzuki this weekend darn mixture screw. But putting together another set figured it would be a good time to check out the leak
I am planning on selling the bike in a few weeks. Someone will be getting a nice bike i have a lot of money in it. It has a new battery stater rear tire handlebars grips petcock master cyl ss line adjusted the valves gold oring chain ect was doing this bike for myself so i wanted it right. Was planning on keeping it but got a fantastic deal on a 96 nighthawk 750 with lots of extras ss supertrap corbin seat new gel battery runs great 20k miles paid $800.
