    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.

I would like to publicly thank some GSR folks for mechanical rescue of my bike. I am slooowly learning how to do some things on these bikes, and have learned a lot from the posts, but there is nothing better (for me) than standing over someone's shoulder and watching it being done.


A few weeks ago, RageZro and TheCafeKid helped me out by rebuilding my forks. This weekend, Steve, TheCafeKid and N1Elkyfan spent many hours on my behalf showing me the how-to and benefits of a simple carb teardown, inspection, cleaning, (new O-rings) and proper calibration / sync.



I rode home on a new bike!!


Thanks fellas


Oh and Steve and TheCafeKid are still at it helping me with my new old GS .. there will be another post for that story.

Anybody need parts from a really nice '81 1100E?

As noted above, we were up all night, took a nap from about 6:30 to 9:30 this morning, went out to breakfast, then finished the carb sync. After escorting mriddle and RageZro through a nice little set of curves to get them headed in the right direction, I came home and collapsed.
I was going to start on the carbs tonight, but decided that a one-day delay was not going to hurt a thing, so ... good night, all.

That's awesome...and will be MY driveway this coming Saturday. Four of my local GSR members are headed to my house for a nice lunch BBQ. The plan is to wrench on a couple bikes, have some good fellowship getting to know one another, and cap it off with an evening ride. I can't wait!
 
Noooo !!

No parts are for sale !!!

Current bike count in the garage is one Honda, one Yamaha, two Suzukis.
(On the back porch are another Yamaha and three more Suzukis.)

A couple of years ago, just after I bought my Wing and before I sold the Voyager, it was one Honda, one Kawasaki, one Yamaha and one Suzuki.

Ya shoulda mentioned this a couple of weeks ago, I could have waved at you as I flew by. I delivered a trailer to Ashtabula, then came home.
Nice, leisurely day on a bike, only 538 miles that day, and ... it was the day after returning from a 1025-mile weekend in West Virginia.
