    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

Hi All

My name is Tony Smith, but just call me Smifff.
I hail from Wangaratta in Victoria , Australia.
Currently don't have a GS but previously owned a 82 GS1100s Katana. Sold her a few years back and now regretting it.

At present I'm just lurking in the forums and gathering some info.
Have my eye on a beautiful 78 GS 1000 The current owner imported it from the USA and informs me he purchased it from one of the forum members here.

I am just chasing up some details and will make a decision and possibly close the deal in the next few days.

My daily ride is an 04 Honda CBR1100xx Blackbird.. I look after her and she treats me well.

Now looking for that perfect "Classic" to add to my collection.

Looking forward to chatting and gaining a wealth of information from GSR.

Cheers, Tony Smith. Smifff...
 
Hi ya, Smifff.
There is quite a number of Aussie members on the site that could point you in the right direction if your new ride develops problems.
Always liked the idea of doing some long distance high-speed riding on a BlackBird.
 
If the GS1000 doesn't work out, my '78 GS750E is currently available for rehoming. In SE Melbourne. Could do with a new right hand exhaust, otherwise in pretty good nick for the age.
 
Welcome Tony! Always good to see another Aussie on here!

You sold your Kat??? Shame on you! :D Kidding... I just got my first one late last year and am building it now...
