    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 won a 90 gsxr 1100 front end and it occurs to me I don't know how to mount the gauges and the handlebars. Has anybody got any pics that would clear it up for me?

You should browse through some of the custom bike threads. There are lots of ideas there.

Not as precise as Isleomans but it can be done with 1/8" stock Alluminum strips. What you see here is a mock up, it needs to be cleaned up trimmed and maybe some black paint. If you position it right behind the headlight clamps it will not be seen. Considering adding a cross piece for stability.

92 - 95 GSXR 1100 for the length they are a direct bolt up and share the same head bearings, exhaust clearance is the issue. The 1100's are longer than the 750.
 
Mine was not as precise as Isleomans either and also did mine with 1/8" stock Alluminum strips. You can see details on how I did mine on the link below here using a GSXR ignition switch and just re-soldering the old wires to it: http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=118949&page=6

The nice part was that I was able to retain the steering lock.
The down side was that I now have to carry two separate keys. Works fine for me though!:)
 
Nice job everyone. that helps a lot, except that I am using gauges off a Bandit.

I think your 90 1100 upper triple is the same as my 90 750 upper triple that has some custom risers mounted to it.........do you have the clip-ons that go with that upper triple?

I'll swap you straight across for my setup......
