    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...

I have a 1983 GS1100ES and am putting these carbs back together. Unfortunately the bowl gaskets were shot when I pulled them apart. Does anyone have pdf's to print/cut out new ones? I have used cereal boxes in the past on other projects.

Thanks!

You can get brand new precut gaskets for $9 shipped...http://www.ebay.com/itm/SUZUKI-1980...m3369e74f45:m:mu9yEE5XPKvAN1sKdRaOIZQ&vxp=mtr

Using a cereal box to hold back gasoline right in front of your backside sounds like the domain of darwin award winners in training.

I have to agree .. I get great joy from doing it myself and saving a few bucks. Even if I dont have to, its kind of a middle finger to "the man" when I can make due but... here aint the place to do it. Just having to take the carbs back off the bike after working on them because my home made gasket wasnt cut right and is now leaking fuel is worth 10 bucks and damnit ... "the man" can have it this time. :)

Hey if it were end of days, mad max style living you might be able to barter those cereal box gaskets for a fortune though so I say find the PDF's and prepare! Best I can do is offer a scan of the new ones i have if you think it will help.

Thanks for the reply guys. I was more worried about getting them here for the weekend than anything without paying through the nose. The ones from Ebay you linked look like they will. Thanks!
