    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.

Hello I'm in need of some shims to adjust my valve clearance on my 1978 gs750 the shim sizes I need are 3 of 2.75mm, 3 of 2.70, 3 of 2.65, and one 2.60 I'm located in the northeast part of pa and I can pay via paypal I also have 2.90's 2.85's 2.80's if anyone needs them. If anything can someone give me some guidance on where I can find shims? Thanks
 
Z1 Enterprises has aftermarket shims. I use these.

PartsOutlaw has OEM shims. I haven't used these, but I use PartsOutlaw for all my OEM parts.

Suzuki-affiliated shops or dealerships will also have shims. Some have been known to trade shims (you give them your old ones, they give you the sizes you need). Sometimes there's a small fee ($1) for this. Or sometimes they wont do it.

Make sure you get the 29.5mm diameter shims, not the 29.0mm. Other brands (Kawasaki, Honda, etc) often use the 29.0mm.
