    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.

Compatible Honda airbox?

I am looking for an airbox for my '81 Suzuki gs 650 gx. At a local salvage yard I found an intact airbox in good condition on a Honda 650. Although the Honda uses Keihn carbs I am wondering if it would be close to compatible for my GS? I am not sure if the Keihn carbs have a smaller port diameter than my GS carbs. The Honda airbox on this bike is very similar to the one shown in my Clymer manual (I am not sure what the orignal airbox on my bike looked like. Would this be a possibility?
 
I have a complete airbox assembly for your bike with the mounting hardware that you are sure to be missing.
PM if interested.

It would be highly unlikely to fit- the stock Suzuki airbox barely fit -many people can testify to this!

Let me know if you got my PM. After sending the message my account does not show any sent PMs. Thx.
Possibly it just takes awhile to populate.?
