    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...

    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 have an 82 1100e with a slippery clutch. I can't find parts anywhere for a reasonable price. I can get the disks through the dealer for $250. I got the disks for my 1100g for $60. They tell me that the disks are the same diameter, but are the thickness the same? And does anybody know how many disks the 1100e have? Slopoke used to have some for sale, but I'm not sure if they will fit, if he still has em that is.
Every site I have checked only has the fibers, the steels may be ok, the bike only has 12,600 on it, but it really slips bad so they may be worn, I haven't torn it apart yet and really don't want to till I can put it back complete. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
 
The assembly dwg in my manual shows 8 driven plates (round) and 9 drive plates (11 outward protrusions).
 
I did the clutch in my 82 GS1100E about 10 years ago. I remember that the cost of performance fiber plates was not much more than normal ones for that bike. I forked the (Then) $200 for the fiber and never regretted it. That clutch could hit hard all day long, and even held without a slip in the desert trip across Death Valley in August. My old plates would slip in extreme heat, like the trip to Palm Springs area (29 Palms).


Gods, I miss my 1100E. That was the best bike I ever owned. Never should have sold it no matter how hard up I got. Should have sold the son instead... :lol:
