    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.

I have a 1982 GS650G, and I would really like to sport it up a bit.. I love the laid back style of the cruisin bike, and I think a tear drop shaprd gas tank would get me a step closer to what I am looking for... Does anyone know what is involved wih changing out the box shaped gas tank with a tear-drop shape?
(I am thinking a bit of welding for the mounts, and a seat replacement..

If you have the skills, nothing is impossible, but be aware this is a bigger mod than it sounds the frames are totally different.

I know L model tanks are shorter, mine is and Suzuki provided black plastic side panels that sit between the steering neck and the tank to hide wiring and cables. you might think about that when you are doing your mod.
