    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.

It's alive, it's alive.

Months of waiting have come to an end (well kind of). It?s alive again. After ordering one part after another and still keeping the checkbook straight my parts bike runs.
It?s been a job with no time to work on it just to have it run.

I must have put $700 in parts.
It started with a jacked up side stand (1 side stand)
3 seized mixture screws (1 mixture screw and 2 carb bodies)
Dried out carb plugs (4 new carb plugs)
Rusted exhaust (1 new Gemini header system and 4 120 main jets)
Gas filled oil (4 float needles and 2 petcock o-rings)
No air filter (UNI filter)
Leaking drain screw (1 oil pan and gasket)
Spring in oil pan (clutch basket and hub)
GK tank on GL (GL gas tank)
Lawnmower key switch (new key switch)
1000L side covers (1100GL side covers)
Broken tach cable (tach cable)
Jacked up Honda seat (new seat cover but no pan yet)
Dragging front brakes (new brake pads on way)

Got some cam walk ticking and primary gear chuckle at idle but revs good and strong. A valve adjustment and new brake pads then it is time for some paint.
 
Holy cow, that's some parts bike. Now go ride the hell out of it....
