    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...

  • 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.

SS Brake Lines From Cyclebrakes.com

I recently installed a custom stainless steel brake line from CycleBrakes to replace my stock rear line. I had orginally planned to go with universal lines and screw-on ends but then came across CycleBrakes' web site. $55 for a coated 39.5 inch line with crimped banjo ends, including new crush washers and banjo bolts. Roughly the same price as a universal set. I did all the ordering via telephone and the sales person was very helpful (even called me back to confirm that the order had shipped and to give info on some caliper rebuild kits I had asked about). The line is exactly as I had described it to the sales person and works great.

I recommend giving them a try if you're looking for new lines and can't find pre-fabbed from russell or goodrich.

BTW, I'd recommend going with a 38.5 inch line for the '82/'83 1100E rather than 39.5, which was my call.
 
Crimped lines are much superior to screw on fittings, IMO.

Those look like nice lines, and the price is fair as well.
