    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.

My 1980 Suzuki GS1000G

Aaaaaarrrrrhhhhhh :evil::evil:
That just sucks, damn, yeah, yeah just ride her a bit, I would, see what develops.
Are you sure you don't have a loose guide, maybe?
 
The high mileage 1100G I gave to my brother used to do that. Now it doesn't. It hasn't been touched below the valve shims.
 
Well she's running great. These bike are such a pleasure to ride. Minimal blue smoke this morning on start up, changed the oil and took her out. Oh ya, I finally got around to taking off the 'Harley' looking chrome shock covers. Looks way better I think.

Great ride. Can't wait for the first big trips on her this year. This will be the co-pilots first time on this bike as well, she'll be in for a treat.
 
Oh yeah, sounds like you had a serious grin factor.
The 1000G is the most under rated GS, they are fantastic.
 
A colour change for the better........

When the time, money and inclination hits me I'll likely have a fender painted to match. I'm not sure if I want the fairing to be colour matched or leave it black to match the Samsonite. Opinions are always welcomed on the matter. I'm very happy with how she looks. Much better than the brown :D
