    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 have an 85 GS700 that didn't come with the air filter....and just received the K&N replacement. Now I chatted with a K&N rep on their website, and had explained that I did not have the basket, and he said "sure no problem, you don't need it" Yeah RIGHT!

Any idea's?
 
Why do you need the basket?

EDIT: so the basket is part of the top cover? So you need top cover?

you may be in luck. I just switched to pods and have my top cover/basket. the snorkel and a rip down the side but it could be repaired with ease. I will be working on my bike tomorrow and will grab it and send pics.
 
The snorkel Has a rip, Has a rip.... sometimes i am just a big animal.

It seems #6 is NLA from the OEM vendors. Is that the part you need?


Thank you for your indulgence,

Yeah I think I can let it go. I am going to be working on the bike today so I will take pics of the damage and you can then decide if its what you want. but I can say for sure that I have the exact part you are looking for. Just hang in there for one more day and have a shipping address ready for me.
