    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.

I have a GS1100GLD in the two-tone maroon and what-is-that-color-maybe-coppery-red.

I'm very happy to report that Duplicolor's color Dark Garnet Red Pearl, which matches Chrysler's "PRV" paint code, matches the deep purple-red Suzuki paint very closely. It's available in their 2-in-1 series of touch-up paint.

It's just a tiny bit lighter in shade, but it's very close, and for six bucks at Autozone, I'm happy. ($18 overall, with a little bit of primer and clearcoat).

[Sometime when the bike was resting for the winter, something fell on it in my friend's garage and it got a scrape that was more like a series of six 3mm chips down to the bare metal on the tank, very upsetting because the paint finish was nearly perfect when I got the bike.]
