    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...

    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.

Are there any other models of left hand control that would fit on my '82 GS750E? By left hand control I mean the turnsignal/headlight/horn module.

I got one off a kawasaki , so now I can push the turns signals off, but I had to make a new choke cable.
 
Replacement Controls

Replacement Controls

I found a website www.peakmoto.com that sells standard replacement handlebar switches, for $62 you can get the turn signal/horn/ highbeam switch assembly from them, all you have to do is hook up the wiring correctly from its wiring harness to your wiring harness and you have a updated switch.
I ended up taking mine apart and cleaning the components that were all corroded, I found small springs and a ball bearing that sits in a hole with a spring that when installed holds pressure on the switch internally, the ball bearing is what you feel when you move the turn signal switch as it hits the detents inside holding it in position, the spring inside it allows the ball to be recessed so it can slide left to right. It is a trip getting it all back together, there are no exploded diagrams of the inside of that switch so it took some head scratching to figure out how it all went back together when parts started flying apart when I dissassembled it. Trying to find the springs on my floor was no easy task as they are only fractions of an inch long. Had I known about the replacement switch from peakmoto i would have just puchased a new one. After i got my switch together it works great, now i know what to do it isn't a big deal just be prepared and look carefully at how it went together when you take it apart should you take on that task, once the contacts were clean and lubricated it worked like new.

Good Luck Bill.
