    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.

hello,

I'm working on getting my bike back on the road and have picked up this seat for it. I think this seat is close but it just does not fit quit right for my 1979 suzuki gs 425l motorcycle. The brackets are to wide and the brackets are not far enough away (from memory). I'm slightly a purist, there is some other soul out there looking for cheap old parts; I am also partial to re positioning the brackets. If anyway has the correct seat for it I would be interested in swapping seats with them. anyone?

Ok, I have no idea what year seat that is other than it is an L seat (doubt anyone will be able to identify the actual year) but what the heck is that on your crash bar?? it almost looks like a coil........
 
yes, that is an ignition coil. Tried to go the cheap way, but it did not turn out so great.
