    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.

    GS550T Refresh

    Thanks Grimly. I dug a little deeper. Basically ups the displacement to that of the 650 model (I guess it ends up being 673cc) and gives you the updated combustion chamber while keeping the bottom end/crank/roller bearings. So basically a slight performance upgrade. I think I'll stick with my...

    GS550T Refresh

    Also curious about something I hadn’t heard till I joined this forum: what are the benefits of swapping a head from a 650 onto a 550 engine? Is it really worth the headaches?

    Yeah, she's still a looker. Just a little dusty.

    GS550T Refresh

    Thanks Scratch. Already looked in the airbox. No critters in there, but I do plan on using my smoke generator to spot any leaks in the airbox/intake plenum. I have a sneaking suspicion that she's sucking in lots more air than what's good for her.

    Thanks Ed. I just got the o-rings in the mail today (thanks again) and am planning on using this forum extensively to keep my GS going.

    GS550T Refresh

    At the end of the 2020 riding season, I noticed my GS550T was not running as well as it had previously. So over the winter I decided to go through the carbs, expecting that something had gotten gummed up from ethanol in the fuel. While I didn't go through the carbs completely, I thought I had...
