    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Joe, the 1100 pipe WILL bolt on but the rear hanger bracket won't line up correctly. You will need to fab a bracket for that. I can sell you adjustable needles to save you about 1/2 the cost of a jet kit. I build, race, & tune these 1100s & 1150s & will be glad to help you or answer any questions. You can call me at 714--356-7845 & I will help you out. Welcome to the site, Ray
 
you might want to re-think your plan.

you might want to re-think your plan.

run it like it is at the track.

Hi performance Tech advise!? if you need a lot of it, the heart aching has only begun....

your bike will LOVE 14/49 in the quarter.

pipe, jet kit, and sprockets should be on hold until you correct all the usual problematic issues these 1100/1150s' have in stock form...

cam chain tensioner , starter clutch , electrical systems, Drive clutch basket, -- just to mention for starters before you go and stomp it's guts out.

welcome to GSR, Be smart about what you do to your bike. If you boost power and the old stock cam chain tensioner folds up at 9000 RPM as you shift into 3rd gear = KA-BOOM!!! and WHEN it does -- not IF it does-- we'll all be here to help.
