    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.

Hello!
I have a 1978 GS 750 with a poor starter; the drum on the big gear measures good but the rollers have flat faces hammered into them, like round diamonds.
I'm wondering if anyone might know of a roller bearing with the correct size of rollers to replace these.If the new rollers are too wide they could be cut down on a surface grinder as long as the diameter is right.
Any thoughts?
 
If they are still available, the proper parts are probably cheaper than thowing in roller bearings.
 
Where did you get those part numbers from? I looked on that site you listed with no results. What category are they listed in?
 
Those are the OEM Suzuki part #s you can get them from your dealer.
The other site you would have to call them

Thanks for your help with the parts #s. The rollers are on their way.
