    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.

I am in the process of making new sidecovers for the bike...the first ones I made I used last year were from just flat aluminum with the GS750 emblem on them..but since my motor has diamond plate covers I made on it I decided to make diamond plate ones for the bike itself...just cant decide on flat black or gloss with the highlighted diamonds...opinions?

With the rest of the bodywork being gloss black, I would go with gloss black on the side covers.

Are you engine covers gloss black or flat? It doesn't matter as much if the engine covers are different, but I would keep the body pieces all in the same theme. The polished diamonds would be their highlight.
