    A note to new registrants...
    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.

Thanks Billy! I'll keep that in mind! Am switching to a V&H 4 into 1, which claims better ground clearance, so that should help as well.

Just for kicks, do you know what the length of the stock GS1100 forks are, compared to the length of the 88 1100's???

If it's an 1100 front end that's better. The '88 1100 retained the original Gixxer front end with the electric anti-dive and was longer than what the '88 750 front end was. Not sure about length but you should be fine. Setup is still everything though. When you get ready get back and I'll walk you through setting up sag and such.
 
Good! This whole deal is new territory to me. I still have some wheel bearings and sterring head bearings to buy, and a couple rides in late april early may before the full on mods begin...but rest assured, I'll be sending some messages your way.

Thanks,

Mike
