    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.

Hi just unloaded my new 1978 GS1000 from the back of my truck. I am going to change the oil and drain gas etc, but I must be blind because I can't find the oil filter. Any help is appreciated, BTW this site is awesome.

Thank a lot,
Tim
 
No disrespect meant, but you need at least an owners manual or better yet a repair manual.
 
I must admit that when I first got my Suzuki I had to look twice to find the oil filter. On my Yamaha it stuck out like a sore thumb had heat fins and the whole deal. Its different if you are used to other bikes.
 
Found it, like i said I must be blind, I have a manual on order hope to have it in a few days. Hope to take it for a test drive this evening.

Thanks for the responses,
Tim
 
Tim, in the mean time you can always look up schematics on the Internet to see where things are located. Bikebandit.com has them and is very handy.
