    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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.

Looks like the PO (or someone) moved the clip-ons above the top triple, rather than under, where they belong.

Here's the link to the Kijiji page. It is in Dartmouth (Halifax), Nova Scotia. I got a quote years go about shipping a bike across Canada. For what the bike was, it wasn't worth it. But you got wood over an '82 750 here ya go

Good thing it's not in Ontario or it would be in my garage already

Very nice project:)
Does your front end come from a GSXR 1100?
I would be concerned by ground clearance with this type of fork?
Having a 4 into 1 will help but it will still be very low...
I did a project with the RSU version of this fork and here's the result.
The unloaded fork length was 745 mm ( front axle to stanchion top)
In the end I used Bandit Ph1 stanchions at 775 mm to regain the lost height.
