    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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.

Yes thats a 1 Gal Hawaiian Punch plastic bottle that is giving life to my 85 GS700 for the first time this year !!! LOL All she needs now is to have the tank sealed useing POR 15 it (has small rust holes) and a new back tire (org has plenty of tred but has sidewall cracks) front is new replaced last year. Metzler Lazertec... want to stay with the same in the rear. Can't believe I just put some fuel in her and Vroom Vroom.. Will be on the rode soon. Oh yeah I put new EBC's fibers off of E-bay ($25.00 new what a deal) new (to me) front stainless brake lines I got off a salvage GS750 I found. Oil/Filter and lots of paint/polish !! Also a Ret/Reg I got off again e-bay for a 1000 Gs that seems to be working so far. Can't wait to ride ...:eek:

Very beautiful bike, hope you don't burn it down.
 
I used a plastic 1 quart oil can the other day. i drilled a hole in the bottom of it the same size as the fuel line. It didn't leak and was good enough for a 5 min test run on my gsxr. American ingenuity.
 
This reminds me of my friend's old Mercury Lynx. It would puke oil out of the vent hose. He got sick of buying oil for it and installed a longer hose with a 1 qt bottle at the end. Every day he would just empty the bottle back into the engine. Brilliant!
 
I plan on using my snowblowers fuel tank for this - or my lawnmowers tank... it'll probably be that long before I'm ready to fire it.
Flat bottomed 1/2 gallon tank with a hose already on it.

Er, maybe just the whole derned chainsaw! :)
 
I use my tank and a 2x4 and lay it accross the frame.
Or I put it on my trash can.
