    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.

    Picking up new project bike today GS650E

    If getting those carbs out are anything like my old 1980 550L, I do not envy you. Those were a SERIOUS pita.

    what did you wrench on today??

    I had to put new front wheel bearing hubs and rotors on my 2015 Altima, which my son drives. Not too bad of a job really.

    Dave likes the wind protection, which is why he bought the bike in the first place.

    Bought a 1980 GS1000G, needs work, help please

    I would start by pulling the carbs and doing a thorough inspection and cleaning. Then go through all the electrical connections and either clean them or replace them with spade connectors. Then take the top off and do a valve clearance inspection and adjustment. Check the airbox and replace...

    GKs are unusual . . . .

    I did enjoy my GK while I had it and it was nice to have the bags and wind protection and it was a great runner that only let me down once on my way to Steve's place (battery died). I only sold it because a GSX1100G popped up for sale locally and I hadn't scratched that itch yet. One test ride...

    Welcome! And yes, definitely inspect the rear spline drive. If it's gold in color, remove it and inspect the teeth on the inside for wear. Then look for a steel one to replace it.

    My GS Story

    Looks great. I love the looks of the L model but they are generally not built for long rides. At least not for me. When I first got into this addiction, I had a 550L and I hated the looks of a G model with that flat slab seat. After having both models, I'll take the G all day long. And, you can...

    anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

    Would love to go for a ride if I could just regain enough energy that I've lost from this "illness".

    Glad I could help. Saw your post with the soup can and piston rings. Did you try a hose clamp? Works somewhat.

    Which year did shim adjustments quit

    Just be glad it's not a shim "under" bucket design like my FZ1. You can't do any adjustment without removing the cams. Sucks!
