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'm thinking of honing the cylinder myself. I've never done this before and was wondering what any of you think. Hard to do? Easy to mess the cylinders up? What is the best hone to buy?

I'm back working on this and have a few questions. I don't want to make another thread for these questions. I'm going to hone the cylinders and have researched the hones and what people here have used. I've read that it should be a 320gr Ball hone to what ever size my cylinders are. My pistons are stock 1100 so I'm guessing it should be a 74mm ball hone. Can I use cheap oil when doing the honing or is there a type I should use?
I'm also not having any luck bleeding my front master cylinder after rebuilding it. When I put brake fluid and pump it; it just bubbles to the top. It doesn't seem like any fluid and going into the line. I'm thinking about buying a newer master cylinder but not sure what's a good one to buy. I remember Jwhelan putting in one of his threads what he went to but I can't find it. I'll be going to a 1993gsxr front in the coming years as I already have the forks, just need to buy the wheels and brakes. Already have a gsf1200 swing are also but that will wait.
Thanks for the help guys
