    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 got in a new filter for the 82 GS1100EZ and it has a foam cover over it??? I have not seen this before. Is it really suppose to be there? :oops:

looks like a dirt bike filter. I bet you are glad you paid all that extra money for foam packaging.

yeah ... The part number on the box it came in is the "right one" according to mrcycles website. The actual filter is the same size as the original filter, so that's cool, but what the heck is the foam cover for?
 
Apparently, that filter part number is for the Model ED and not for the EZ.

Apparently I wanted #13780-45500, well off with the foam condom
 
I'm thinking "82" is the year Suzuki started puting the foam sock on the filters. Best I remember the "82" Kat was the first bike I saw one on.
 
I found a use for the foam cover. I McGiver'ed a new foam "seal" for the airbox top cover. The old seal has loooong been obliterated by time and was not even there. So I figure this was better then nothing at all.
