    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...

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.

1977 GS 750 Clutch Spring Specs?

Anybody know what the specs are for a '77 GS 750? I tried to order new springs online and they only sent me 4. When I mentioned this, they sent me another 2 but they are a different size. The store offered to replace the springs but they don't know the specs, just part numbers. I haven't pulled the old ones out of the bike yet to compare and don't really have a good work space at the moment to do it.

Thanks for your help.
 
Clutch spring freeplay length should be in your factory service manual. At least it is in the 850 and 1000 manuals I have access too at the moment.

I suspect someone will come along, crack open their manual, and provide you the information. Or you can just do it for yourself.;)
 
Where did you order the springs from? A Suzuki dealer will have the correct part numbers, access to the parts breakdowns, and the quantity needed for the bike. (Although you often get better prices ordering from an online OEM dealer vs walking into your local shop.)

Also, I've heard that aftermarket clutch springs tend to be much stiffer than OEM, resulting in a clutch lever that's harder to pull.
