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.

The Bandit is a fun ride. I planned to leave mine alone but have started to get the bug to fiddle with it. Jet kit w/airbox mod and pipe, 5 degree advancer, PAIR removal is the extent of the motor mods for now. I would like to bump up hp and move the power delivery up into the higher rpms. Cams are in the near future and that will be the extent of motor work for a while.

I agree the GS1100/1150 are great bikes, bulletproof motors that are very limited by suspension/tires/brakes. The Bandit needs no real suspension or brake work other than aftermarket fork springs and brake lines. The GSXR 1157cc motor is very easily tuned for serious power. It is a very nice package that can be bought for less than what it would take to make a GS1100/1150 comparable.

Ride On, Ed.
