    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.

I have an 82 gs850 with a 16" rear mag rim. I thought it was supposed to be a 17"? Does this really matter?
 
thank you!! there is not enough room to write the confusion I had last night ordering tires. You probly wouldn't even want to read all of it. Long story short I was going to order a 130/90-17 but for what ever reason ordered a 16 called up bike bandit they're ready to give me free shipping upon return. Went and looked at my bike and it said 16. Guess the one coming will work. Really just going to bed and ordering in the morning probly would have helped.
 
To further compound the confusion, you can put a 16" GL wheel on a G and vice-versa.

Application charts are often (usually) wrong or incomplete, so there's no substitute for heading out to the garage and taking a look. It's very common for various charts to confuse or blend the G and GL models.
