    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.

What is the widest wheel-tire combo that can be squeezed into a stock GS1150 swingarm with an offset sprocket? Has anyone gotten a 5.5in wheel in the stock swingarm and and not had trouble with the chain?
 
No, four and a half is as big as will fit, running a 150 or 160 tyre dependent upon brand.

Thats what I thought. I had a hard time as it was getting a 4.5 in wheel to work on my 82 Katana.
 
I have a ZZR600 swinging arm with a 160 tyre in mine. The chain JUST clears the inside of the frame. In fact I had to weld a small plate over a hole in the frame because the chain had worn the frame away :oops:
