    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.

hey guys i was wondering what size pods i need? 80 750E.... the carb intake measures OD right at 2" which is 51mm. should i get the 52mm or 54mm pods? thanks a lot guys!!!
 
My question would be...if it measures 51mm, why would you use the 54s? :-s
Sounds like the 52s are the ones you want. 8-[

If you go that way you will need a jet kit, the jet kit is made to be used with K&N filters. It's still a trial & error job
 
would the 54's fit? i know they would be a little loose, but can they be tightened down to fit the 52mm carb? just wondering if anyone has tried it yet....
 
Don't mean to hijack, but my question is pod filter related. You guys running pod filters, do you have to add a support to the rear of your carbs when you eliminate the factory air box?

I've never had a problem and I've run pods on my GS1100E since 1984.

if push comes to shove, you could wrap some electrical tape around the outside of the carb lip so that the 54s fit....
 
My '81 GS750EX takes 54mm, I would think an '80 would take the same.
