    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...

    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 $350 GS850L

    Hi and welcome. I am curious though... Are you sure the engine is locked up? I onlly ask because if the clutch switch is corroded that will prevent the bike from turning over when you hold the clutch in to try to start the bike. Have you tried to put it into a high gear and pop the clutch while...

    1978 GS550E Project Mo

    Getting it running is my first priority. It has to be safe. There was one caveat with this purchase... No title. So I have to get my buddy to take care of that before we dump too much into the bike.

    Front valve stem is leaking... Sighs. Also time to do all the fluids and fix the annoying side stand safety switch light (the red light is on constantly). Last two things will be the K&N filter, new spark plugs and a horn.

    Valve stem size? GS750T

    Thank you both for the input. I'll try to follow up when I get the stems changed.

    Valve stem size? GS750T

    Alas.... I suppose I will have the local dealer just put in rubber ones to replace the metal ones that the bike is currently sporting.

    Valve stem size? GS750T

    I've never had a problem with the factory rims in the 11 GS's I have had. I think there was a flaw in the very early GS models but can't recollect exactly what it was.

    Valve stem size? GS750T

    Ray, If they are tubeless rims... Then...???

    Valve stem size? GS750T

    So now the bike has decided it doesn't like it when the front wheel is inflated... Jebus. Anyone know what the appropriate valve stem size is? I want to order two metal ones from Fleabay. Thanks.
