    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.

Missing some pieces? ('78 GS750)

Took a look at the air filter on the GS750 I recently bought. Looks like it's missing a gasket and a soft air filter. Just a guess.

Can anyone confirm or deny this?
 
You can make a gasket out of urethane weatherstrip available at the hardware store. Uni sells a foam filter that is cheaper than the Suzuki version too.
 
Hi,

What you have there is the air filter "cage". The air filter element fits into it. There should be two screws on the bottom piece to connect it to the top piece and hold the filter element. Both UNI and K&N make air filters for our bikes.

Don't forget to put weatherstripping on the top to make a good seal.

This is the air filter assembly fitted in the airbox with a K&N air filter.
