    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.

Clutch woes continue '83 1100E

I'm still having problems with my clutch. I have new EBC springs to be put in and have the bevel spring washer and a few other things on order.

I tried washers on the existing HD springs and new stock springs and orienting the steels per RapidRay's advice. Rideable, but still slipping.

I really need to know how many steel plates and fibers are in an '83 GS1100E. Parts lists say 10 & 9, my bike had 10 & 10 and the dealer says 10 & 11. I'm reluctant to experiment and grind something up in my engine.

I'm using stock Suzuki parts, so If you want to pull a cover and count some plates, I'd really appreciate it.
 
If your still slipping either your crush ring behind the steel that's wired in is bad or your fibers are toast (hardened of in spec) or the steels are out of spec.
