    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.

'82/83 GS850G side cover amblems ?

I have seen these amblems in two variants, with silver and with gold letters (the same as with the tank amblems) I assume one type would be US-spec and the other the spec for other markets? Or, was there a difference betwen '82 and '83?

Looking at the parts fiche for US bikes there seems to be only one part number available - 68131-45720. Has anyone ordered these and are they silver or gold letters?

I'm looking to get gold ones for my resto, to match the amblem lettering on the tank I have. You understand how un-cool it would be to have a mismatch between the two sets of amblems :D

Any help appreciated :)
 
Just order up a pair of new ones. I think they all come in the newer-spec gold.

When we painted my wife's bike 5 years ago, we ordered new emblems for the tank and side covers, here is what we got:

Thanks Steve. Can anyone confirm this is also the case with G amblems (not GL)?
