    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Would any of you know if the fork tubes are the same for the gs850 and the gs1100 in 80?

Thanks!
 
Assuming you're talking about the chain-drive 1100E or 1100L, then yes, they're different. The fork tube diameter is the same, but many other details are different. (Since you said it was a 1980, I'm assuming it's not an 1100G/GL shaftie, since those came along in '82).

You'll also want to clarify whether you're talking about an 850G or 850GL, and what exactly you have in mind.

You may be able to transplant the entire fork/triples assembly just fine, but depending on what you want to do, the components may not transfer.
