    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.

Leaky tach drive

Everything was fine this weekend, but I noticed some wet appearing around the tach drive. Assume I need a new seal. Where do I get one? Checked bikebandit, but they changed the drawings on me and it?s just too hard.

i wouldn't worry about it unless it's dripping oil. Makes it easier to remove when you want.

Thanks, chef, Fig. 1. it is. Back to bikebandit.

I just want to fix it because it's messy (anyone who's seen my bike would find that more than a little funny).
 
What bike, noob?:D Is this applicable?

The same part numbers work, believe it or not -- I just did these seals on an '83 1100E using the same parts as a GS850.

You gotta love Suzuki's parts bin engineering sometimes.

I suspected they were all the same, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity. And they might not be all the same, so I figured I'd poke him just for safety.
