    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.

i was wondering what i could do for a better speedo since mine only goes to 85
 
Not sure if they are interchangeable, but the 83 1100 stock speedo goes to 140. I swapped out a set with my 82 1100.
 
get a set off the uk ebay ..i forget ...do u guys work in miles or kph
 
This way when the cop asks you how fast you were going, you can honestly say 85MPH. :D

I am pretty sure the 80-81 cluster is unique to those years. You cold get a Canadian/UK cluster, but they are in KPH.
 
I have some from a gs650g that go up to 200 kph (120mph)

if that will suit.
 
i have to find out if there interchangable i dont know how ill figure that out yet but yah the 85 speedo is week its already gone in 3rd gear!
 
uk ones are in mph up to 140.....have seen em often on ebay for fair money .this is the square light model were talking about isnt it ,in which case the 83s wont fit with the light surround...nor will any other model really. so you really want the originals ....unless you convert to the round light (tragic really) in which case mose models will fit ...gs1000e being the tidiest

got any reference pics ...that way we can keep our eyes peeled and get back to you shoul something come up in anyones neck of the woods
 
saffa,
my bike looks identical to yours without the mods. same head light. its a 81 gs1100
