    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.

First I want to compliment those responsible for putting this forum together I have answered countless questions just by reading threw the feeds ...Ok now to the question. I have a 1981 gs1000g the genius i bought it from stripped 2 screws pretty good on the cover to check my secondary oil/ gear oil on the engine side:mad:... Has anyone found any good tricks or references inside that i can just peak threw the fill whole to make sure i have some kind of fluid? I plan on doing it the right way soon but something like getting these screws out takes time and patience.. At the moment i need to be able to ride my baby with peace of mind that i have some oil in there :confused:any input would be appreciated thanks
 
I'm unclear as to these "stripped screws on cover"- doesn't this secondary drive have a filler plug on top and a drain plug on bottom? Use a pencil/stick to gauge oil level in cavity. Or drain it all and refill with what manual says.
If this bike is new to you , better check lots of stuff if you intend to ride with "peace of mind".
