    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

The needle jets arrived today. Order placed 1/16 and arrived 1/24 via Priority mail. Best price I could find since they offer free shipping over $50. Here is the website http://www.suzukipart.com
Will use them again next time I need OEM parts.

Just went to this website...seems they have OEM parts that other sites show discontinued by Suzuki. Could this be true?
 
The parts I ordered were carburetor parts for my 1994 RF900. When I went to powersportsplus.com (partzilla.com) and looked for the parts, their diagrams show all of the carb parts as obsolete. The parts were showing as available from xtreme powersports. If in doubt you could always give them a call and ask if the part is available.

NO... like many online OEM sellers, they just list every single part Suzuki ever sold. This means you can place an order and pay for all the parts you want... but you may not get what you expect.

Very few of the places even take the time to notify you some of the parts are discontinued - until they've already ordered the other parts from Suzuki.

SO...
1) you may only get some of the parts you need - leaving you without some key parts - many of which may be impossible to find new.
2) you may have to wait to get your overpayment back.
3) you likely cannot return the handful of parts they did send you - or if they do allow it, you incur a restocking fee.

Hmmm...places like PartsShark, Alpha and some others, if their fiches it usually will tell if that part is available any more. Like parts 1 and 2 aren't on the list of parts or the price or something it's no longer OEM available. Apparently their parts fiches aren't as up to date. Figured it would be too good to be true. I need a tach lol.
