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...

Hi. I'am going to be useing anaerobic gasket maker to seal the cases on an 1100e after a major rebuild. Any experience from anyone on this type of gasket maker? I've never used it, it's permatex brand & I have had good luck w/ their products.
 
I've used it before but not on a GS. I'd much rather use a gasket. You can cut one out from gasket paper in about 5 min. if you don't have one already.
 
I don't think you want to use paper between the cases as that will change some of your bearing clearances. I used black rtv between the cases of three of my bikes and never saw a leak from them.
 
The Threebond 1207B is the ONLY thing I use to put case halves together. Never had a leak with the stuff & have been using it for over 30 years! Available through any Suzuki dealer. A little pricey at about 20 bucks a tube but worth every penny. Ray.

Exactly the input I was hopeing for, thanks guy's. Ness. I do not think lengthening the distance between the cases by even .00001 is a good idea as far as the crank & tranny zinging around are going to appreciate for long. Tom. Although I have used RTV many times I would be leary of squish out getting into the case. R.R. I do think you may be on to something new to me... I'll check it out. Thanks again guy's.
 
Ness. I read & respect the input you have on this site, Thx for the help. T.G.
 
20 bux is damn cheap to assure never having leaks you have to completely diseassemble an engine to fix being cheap lol

Not cheap but it is the best I have ever used. Some say its the same thing as 3 bond - not sure!?

Its the only gasket paste that permanently sealed my KTM LC4 rocker cover. Nuff said!

Cheers
