    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.

Can somebody please give me any information of this bike, year, model, serial code, PAINT CODES:

http://www.streetbikerider.us/SP/30149

*(picture is at bottom of this post as well)*


I ask because I have a 1984 GS550E that needs a uniform paint job. I want to repaint my GS with a same/similar color pattern of a factory GS model and put new decals on as well. The only site I could find that sells a full decal set is:

http://kz900.com/decals/suz/decals-suz-gs550.html

The decal set they sell is for the red and gray, 1984 GS550E (bottom of the page). Only bad thing is, there is not much information on this particular bike and color scheme. There are only a few images of this particular bike. I would like to know the paint codes so I can get a (semi-)professional paint job and order the decal set from the site above. Please let me know if you have this same bike or know anything more about it that could help me in my endeavor to get my GS looking good.

*Note: The GS I have is a 1984 GS550E. It has 13,000 miles on it and it is in great running condition. I think it would be worth getting a professional paint job and new decals since it has a lot of life left in it. Please let me know what you think a cosmetic restoration like this will cost and if it would be worth going to the extent. Any other advice is welcomed.

Thank you,

Eric
