    Welcome!
    Register to access the full functionality of the GSResources forum. Until you register and activate your account you will not have full forum access, nor will you be able to post or reply to messages.

    A note to new registrants...
    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.

What service manual to buy?

Hi Steve, Welcome to the GSR. I got mine from manuals.com, but I think BassCliff may have an online resource that would be way cheaper. Try posting in the owners section, he has a great welcome to the GSR post with a bunch of links to resources you are looking for. Ray
 
Click HERE for BassCliff's site.

Click HEREhttp://www.mtsac.edu/~cliff/storage/gs/GS1000.pdf[b to download a copy of the factory manual.

In order of preference, most of us go for 1) the factory manual, 2) Clymer, 3) Haynes. All three are good manuals, but one might have better illustrations than another for a particular procedure, and the other might have better illustrations than the one in a different procedure. In other words, get them all, if you can. :D

Hi Mr. GSteve,

Have I not given you the unofficial welcome? Here it is.

Please click here for your mega-welcome, chock full of tips, suggestions, links to vendors, and other information. Then feel free to visit my little BikeCliff website where I've been collecting the wisdom of this generous community. Don't forget, we like pictures! Not you, your bike! :D

I use both the Shop and Clymer manual. The PO gave me the Clymer manual. I picked up a Suzuki Shop manual from a local Craigslist ad. You can also check ebay for manuals.

Steve, your link has a couple of extra characters in it, causing it to 404.

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

Thank you Mr.BC for the warm and hardy welcome. I believe the Clymer manual and use of the GS Forum will be tremendous resources for any challenge ahead.
