    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.

Sonic fork springs

I'm about to install some new Sonic springs in my 80 GS1100E forks, any of you GSRers done this yet? I about freaked when I saw how much shorter the Sonic springs were, so I called, and was told it was the norm lol. Just follow the instructions with the springs. Thought I would ask if anyone has done this swap yet and any thoughts you could share on yours.
 
+1 on the Sonic Springs, I have them in two bikes, great product.
 
Bought Sonics for the 06 SV650S of my user name.They where great.Just cut the spacer the way the instructions say and enjoy.
 
Well anyways, I'm leaving the air valve on the forks and using them for spacers for the headlight mounts, if I don't I would have to make some spacers, so just leave them on and not use them, I plugged off the hole though.

If it wasn't for some cotton BT testing this morning I would sneak into the shop and install the springs lol.

Got the springs installed. They seem to be working great! Funny thing is the fork tube preload adjustment caps hardly have any tension on them. I followed the instructions to the word (using my correct measurements). I don't have a lot of preload on them and they work just fine.
