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.

    Here are all four looking good on a warm day. The GS finished up last November and just rolled over 30K this morning. Couldn’t have done the engine without out Chuck’s help…great guy.

    Suspension Advise for a 83 GS1100E

    Good deal. Does anyone sell plugs that eliminate that plastic line between the forks? I don’t trust that line considering how old it is.

    Suspension Advise for a 83 GS1100E

    I finally have the forks rebuilt with sonic springs and I also eliminated the anti-dive valves. So do I still need to add air to the shocks? It was recommended not to add air to my CBX forks after I installed race tech springs. It rides fine without the air.

    Thanks and I assume no advantage going with Racetech or Sonic Springs?

    Suspension Advise for a 83 GS1100E

    I could use help with spring selection. I saw in other threads that show various methods to block them off, but there is a bolt on product that looks nice and clean. I also want to reduce future maintenance so if they are not needed, then I can live without them.

    Suspension Advise for a 83 GS1100E

    I have been pouring through threads over the past few weeks and found some good info…but not everything I need to make a decision. I am currently giving my 83 GS1100E a full frame up resto. I’m now at the brake and front fork rebuild stage. I have no intention of putting on forks or brakes from...

    Chuck was a great host. Really appreciate taking the time to show me the tear down process. Not as intimidating as previously thought now but still a lot of small parts to keep track of. Hopefully have the top end squared away in a few months with Chuck’s assistance. Should have the GS back on...

    GSX1400…Anyone got one Stateside?

    I just need advice from someone who imported a non-US spec bike.

    GSX1400…Anyone got one Stateside?

    Wanted to see if anyone was able to get one into the US and registered. I have K0 model that I picked up when I was stationed in Japan and lets just say its complete, but disassembled, I’d like to get it back together this summer and registered if possible. I believe its old enough to be...

    83 GS1100E Brake System Rebuild Kits?

    My master cylinder corroded pretty bad and lots of the pieces deteriorated. Instead of messing with this one, I’m going to give a 01 SV650 N MC a shot. Plus all the rebuild parts are available.

    83 GS1100E Brake System Rebuild Kits?

    I’m stumped too. I ordered an All Ballz kit and it wasn’t even close to what the OEM cam with. I think I might just replace the whole master cylinder with an aftermarket piece.

    83 GS1100E Brake System Rebuild Kits?

    Brakecrafters doesn’t carry the rear caliper rebuild kit or the front master cylinder. Looks like I will need to order from multiple sites.

    83 GS1100E Brake System Rebuild Kits?

    Is there a single website to to source (front & back) caliper and master cylinder rebuild kits from…plus pads? Been searching but no one so far has everything.

    Got really lucky years ago and picked up a set of unused “school bike” wheels. They are still in really nice shape and only needed a good cleaning. CBX wheels are built up with rivets and cannot be taken apart.

    The scoop was something I put on but those engine guards came with the bike when I purchased it. Not sure if they were a Suzuki option…most likely aftermarket back in the day. They are aluminum.

    Not 100% sure but pretty confident it was. If not, would have been LSamelak
