    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.

  • 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.

    Trevor is famous!

    She a Kawasaki rider or something? Hopefully she gets some help. Man getting charged up about a person on the internet who you've never met is maybe something she should reconsider.

    [GS750T] - Suzy is Fixed!

    Yup the airboxes suck to get in and out but the Suzuki engineering is hard to top. No guesswork.

    Can you show me your rear end? (of your bike, of course)

    Member Trevor has an extensive build thread on his 11E in the projects section with numerous photos. I used it when I put my basketcase together and it was very helpful for reference. It's back a ways now probably 7-10 pages back.

    Looking for a Handlebar and Seat for an '80 GS1100E

    I'll take the Suzuki welds over the Kawasaki welds anytime though. I went to buy a kawasaki a few times back then and just couldn't when I seen the bubblegum frame welds. Kept me from buying an H2, stopped me from buying a Z1 and a GPZ, tried a Concours when they came out too and it just didn't...

    1100E, Buy a Rescue project or Not?

    I bought mine for $500 as a basket case. I have $5k in it now. I know my brakes, charging etc. are good now and those are maintenance on a better start too. I could have bought a nice 83 that was gone through a few years ago for $3k though. So, if you like working on bikes sure buy it. If you...

    Dolly Parton is gone...

    I've heard nothing but good about her.For a person that was known for pretty much getting made up and wearing a costume she seemed more real and grounded than her peers.

    e-bike commuting

    Todays world: Perhaps these phone clickers should be laid off and hire another fellow that can get his hands dirty instead. Then you wouldn't have the problem to start with.

    Heck for 3 weeks so far.

    A few delays but I decided to touch up the electolysis with a new anode for today. It's looking good in there but I'm making sure. I'll be coating it tomorrow and then I can move on to the bodywork.

    Why postal service in Canada is dying

    I have nothing but good things to say about CP. Lots of times I order a motorcycle part from Ontario or Quebec and it arrives in a week. From Ab. or B.C. generally 2 to 3 days. The local staff at the Post Office are a bit persnickity but the production workers and system works well. They should...

    How strict was school back in the day?

    Yardstick across the knuckles, strap for serious offences, chalkboard brush in the head, then the real trouble when you got home and dealt with your parents. Not saying it was a good thing but we did learn to pay attention and respect the system.
