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.

Do you have a good pan or nothing at all. Reason I'm asking as you can get a cover from Pit Replica. https://www.ebay.com/itm/SUZUKI-GS6...SLP-/172898647163?vxp=mtr&hash=item28418ffc7b
Whole seat on eBay $50, but no pic of the pan. https://www.ebay.com/itm/SUZUKI-GS6...SLP-/172898647163?vxp=mtr&hash=item28418ffc7b
I just bought this cover and it worked out very well, if you do go this route, the secret to having it fit well is it needs to be warmed up till its quite hot, I left it in the hot sun for a few hours, then I was able to slowly stretch it over the seat pan and keep working it till it was all uniform tightness.
The seat pan for 1981 650E & 1982 650E are identical, not sure about any other models though.
This is the 650E Seat https://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-suzuk...ash=item3afa4d799e:g:ZNwAAOSwurZZEnnC&vxp=mtr
Ask for more pictures from the seller, it actually looks in OK condition and you may get lucky with that pan.
The other other one listed as a 650E seat on ebay looks like a 650 GL so probably will not work.

Unfortunately the seat pan on this bike is completely roached. The bike sat in a barn for 9 years and it looks like the seat was left on the cold wet ground. The rest of The bike is in surprisingly good condition considering the storage conditions. I'll need a seat and some passenger foot rest brackets and it looks like that's about it.
