    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.

Anyone know of a good substitute for the "Side Cover Emblem Retainers"?
I don't see them on the parts fiche so I'm assuming Suzuki doesn't have them available.

I'm talking about the little rings that press onto the pins on the back of the side emblems, thus holding it onto the side cover.

Gracias!
 
I just used a nylon hex nut that sorta screwed on emblem pin then added dash of krazy glue on nut as backup-still hangin on after 3 years.
 
Agreed. Not a specialized part. You can get the proper sized speed nut, but it is recommended to use some sort of glue as well.
 
Thanks Again

Thanks Again

GSResources is by far the best online motorcycle club/forum I have ever had the pleasure of being a member, thanks for all your help over the last several months.

I had picked this bike up from a neighbor for $400, it had not been started for over 5 years! After 4 months of tinkering, I'm about a week from tagging her. I'll post some photos soon. Someone gave her a horrible paint job at some point. For starters, they used the wrong kind of paint, every time fuel gets on the tank it turns to putty. Over the winter I plan on having the tank painted.

Thanks again!

Try your local NAPA. They're used on about everything.
I've got speed nuts on my toaster!
