    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.

This bike is really limited on tanks because of the triple back bone :-( I was having same problem..needless to say I ended up chopping up my frame and going to a single back bone

I put a 750L tank on my 80 1100 L, the same tank as the 1100 except the gas valve is in front of the carbs and gives me a reserve position. If you want something like in your picture go to a salvage yard and find a Yamahammer tank, there are no other Suzuki tanks that bolt in.

First, where did you find a 750L tank with a gas valve infront of the carbs and is it 52mm thread spacing like the 1100L? This is exactly what I need. Second, what the heck is a yamahammer? Some specific type of yahama?
 
I bought the tank on EBay, new old stock shipped for $50. The original tank physically is the same with the exception of the fuel valve location which is moved forward. The 750L tanks show up in the for sale on occasion, or there is always EBay.

I have a spare that I am not sure that I want to part with.

A yamahammer just means Yamaha. Send me your e mail and I will send you a pic of the tank on the 1100.
