    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.

I just bought a 1985 GS700E with less than 1000 miles on it. First owner wrecked into a mailbox and was scared off. It sat for years until he sold it. The guy I bought from (a fellow firefighter) was the third owner who bought it from his brother. It has been sitting in his garage for the past 2 years. It was running when he parked it but now it won't start. The gas tank is rusted terribly. The first owner tried to line the tank but was unsuccessful. The last owner had a filter placed in the fuel line to keep any rust from getting into the carburator. I need a new tank but can't find one any where. I mean anywhere. This is my first bike and I got it for a couple of hundred bucks so I don't want to put too much money into it but I want to take care of the problem. Can anyone tell me what my options are?
 
Cruise Ebay and ask in parts wanted section on the bottom of this site.
 
Have you tried ebay, Dennis Kirk, Craigslist?

Welcome to the Forum.:clap:
 
gas Tank for 1985 GS700E/ES

gas Tank for 1985 GS700E/ES

I to am looking for a fuel tank for my 1985 GS700ES... I have issues with it leaking, the tank itself is in pretty good shape but has multiple leaks. It has not been sealed yet so I will do that first unless i find a decent tank.

Long story short I have seen a few tanks on E-bay for sell.. Found many parts to get my bike back on the road on e-bay.. good luck.:eek:
