    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

Silly Question...

my GS450E has a strap around the seat, secured with screws, that looks like a PO put it there. however, i have seen pictures on a few Honda sites of bikes with this strap. what is it's purpose? that is, other than a last resort for passengers flying off the tail 8-[
 
And what was so silly about that question?

The only silly or stupid questions are the ones you don't ask. :oops:

well, i didn't know if it was decorative. i was 3 the year the bike was made and that might have been the 'style'- like those flimsy roof racks on volvo wagons. haha. i'll feel better strapping stuff to it from now on

thanks guys!
 
Believe it or else, a passenger grab rail or strap is required for bikes meant for a pillion passenger sold in the US. Just like folding footpegs and brake right, shift left controls.
 
No it's actually rubbish. I think you should take it off and post it to me so I can throw it away for you :D

(mine's missing)
 
Rubbish is what the civilised world calls Trash.... :lol: :D

Like a rubbish bin instead of a trash can. :)
