    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.

    83 GS1100E Speedometer Repair Help

    The speedo on my 83 GS1100E is not working properly. I have had it apart to clean it however that did not help. Does anyone know who does repairs and/or rebuilds Suzuki gauges?

    Broken Clutch Cable Anchor on the Cranckase

    I had thought that welding on to the anchor would be an option however I did not consider having a bolt in the original threads to form a pattern. Good idea. Did you use a stainless steel bolt? What are you referring to by "I made up a stainless piece to replace it"?

    Broken Clutch Cable Anchor on the Cranckase

    This question was asked in 2014 however the thread needed a picture and was never uploaded. I also have the same problem and have heard that it is not uncommon on Japanese bikes. Half of the threaded anchor is broken away from the clutch anchor however the cable is still in the bracket. I...

    Hi Rich, I would be interested in some side covers if they have most of their original tabs in place. What color is the bike?

    We pay more in Canada for mail service, gasoline and mobile phone service. You are not far off in that some services can not reach a cross boarder agreement. We are told that our land size is very large and our population is small in proportion so it costs more to serve the population. Yeah...

    The business I use in Point Roberts is on reduced hours however they offer a reshipping service. They are trying to stay in business and got creative. Maybe there is still some in Niagara doing the same. Cheers

    I live in Richmond BC and prior to Covid I had the luxury of ordering parts from any US vender and having them ship it to a business in Point Roberts Washington. It is a business that receives mail and freight and caters to Canadians. We drive across the border, pick up our parcel and drive back...

    GS550T running lean, what else to check?

    I feel your frustration. I had a problem with my '83 CB1000c that had a miss at 4000 RPM. Not the problem you are having but read on. I replaced the carb intake rubbers with after market pieces prior to this problem showing up and used the original OE clamps figuring they would be better quality...

    The barbecue is only part of it. The previous owner gave me the tank bag and the soft saddle bags with it as well. If I put all that gear on it you would not see the red in the bike. The Givi box and windscreen will be coming off for pictures. Our Government Insurance has a "Collector" plate...

    New Member From Canada With An 1983 GS1100E

    I found it in Abbotsford for $3500 CND. About 56000 KM's and has been unused for about 8 years. It appears complete but currently has a 4 into 1 exhaust. I found a stock exhaust on eBay and next spring probably sell the 4 into 1. I prefer the quieter sound of stock pipes. So do my neighbours...

    I have recently purchased a 1983 GS1100ED. I have been a motorcycle enthusiast for 55 years and owned British bikes, Metric bikes, European bikes and of course a Harley. Along with my new Suzuki acquisition I currently have a 2016 BMW K1600GTL, and a 1983 Honda CB1000c. I really like the mid...
