    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.

Do they even have Collector plate in Otnscaryio?

Actually they do but as I understand it they denote limited usage as in take it to the display....ride it home. Not really an all the time street plate. I'm not sure how you even go about getting one . Oddly, I saw my first one today down at my pro wrench's shop. They are blue with yellow numbers.

The seat is going to look "bitchin" but is that going to be costly? I thought about getting mine redone a year or so ago but they quote close to $300 so that was a none starter.

Anyhoo, I'm still waiting for the engine to get done. What's the amended ETA on that?

cheers,
spyug
 
Sorry......no ETA on the engine......

for the seat - 150 bucks......

Another vote for the carbon look.:clap:
If you going to go with a collectors plate, just keep the strap plain until you get the plate, then do what you will with it. ;)

Woooooo hoooooooo

Woooooo hoooooooo

Good Times is my HERO........

After weeks of looking for bolts, online, offline, local shops, and so on.....

Our very own GSR member Good Times came through for me......He was able to source them out, get them ordered and has them in his hands, ready to ship........to me

Finally the elusive M10X35 and 40 fine thread bolts have become a reality, OK they are not Stainless Steel, but they are Nickel Plated, they are just as shiny as SS bolts, and it will all be OK they will match perfectly with the other ones.

I am so HAPPY.....:dancing::dancing::dancing::dancing:


Thank You, Thank You, Thank You............

They will be in the hands of the trusty United States Postal Service in the morning.

We can't let that 750E beauty have those nasty ol' hex heads on it!
 
Headed to the post office in just a minute. Waiting on my daughter to finish up a letter to one of her pen pals before we go. I'll have you a tracking number when I get back.
 
The bolts are on their way out of the good ol' US of A and headed to the Great White North. I'm sure they will be right at home.
 
Just went through the entire thread. Very nice. She's gonna be a looker for sure.
 
If he ever gets an engine in it. I'm beginning to think he's building it as a lawn ornament :)

Thanks Redneck. I found them at Fastenal and learned a few things in the process myself.
