Nice pic Sandy; I'm anxious to get one last road trip in before the end of the month. Good times. Of course I'm not working on anything on the bike

Hey Jim, what is the link to your electrical article. I need the info, thanks.

Also, I thought you were suppose to use a rubber instead of a balloon??

Well Bill, Thats Great that that engine has got good stuff. Now don't tinker all that juice out of it...........

Is GSX1100 a 80-83 GS1100?

Jim, thanks for the links. No, the GSX1100 is an 89.

Not sure how much time you were sepnding north of the border and started calling GS's GSX's

Anyway, the only concern was if the GSX had an alternator like a GSXR. The GS's have a DC magnet generator and are hyper sensitive to the regulator connections.

The grounding check you described on the Shasta ride. I think I have this grounding problem on my GSX1100. It will run fine one time and then the next time it will not fire on at least one cyl. The next time I fire it up it runs Great and burns all the oil out of that cyl. I am not sure what the problem is but need a place to start and your discription of checking all the grounds to make sure they are good grounds is probably a good place to start. I also need to test the coils as well. Any advise would also be most appreciated Mr Jim.

Here is the thread for revised stator pages tests for charging system. The key is making sure that the connections between R/R (+) and Battery (+) has a low voltage drop at 5000 RPM as well as the voltage drop from R/R(-) to the battery (-). You also want a direct connection from R/R (-) to the closest frame ground. Is GSX1100 a 80-83 GS1100?

Egads! I'm a Bill Poster.

You stole some parts off Jim's bike in the back ground didn't you?

Not sure of the connection here. I'm innocent!!!!

Notice I saw on a bus shelter in Sydney a few years back. "Bill posters will be prosecuted". Someone replied, "I'm innocent, signed Bill Posters"

Yee Gods, another flying banana!! Take ya time with that 1230 mill. You know the rules, "three strikes and you're out".

Which article? there have been so many.

You're running a 137.5 Mikuni main? I thought you were running a 138 Dynojet main.

Imeant to bold the set up you were talking about with the second set up.
138 dj main but stock pilot. Needles at 3.5

Oh yea a rubber would provide a good substitute, you just have to figure the volume of a wiener

You can remove a spark plug and put a pencil into the intake and see how far the pieces get spit out of the exhaust. I have a calibrated ruler for your V&H which reads out compression ratio .

To get the bore, you have to put a balloon onto the intake side and compare the diameter to the size of a balloon attached to the exhaust. Obviously you also have to push air into the intake balloon with a compressor.

Works a charm ; Blah B;ah B;ah

First, lets get something clear sir... That black motor (in stock form vs stock form) will dust your silver motor. Secondly, your jetting set up sounds like what im running, but im running 34s not 36s.. The 83 (black motor) had the hottest stock cams of any of the 1100 motors, with a roughly 298? grind i think it was. The 1150 is about a 315. To me, they just feel quite a bit punchier up top compared to the earlier bikes. But your old motor was all hopped up so i dunno. Could be a gearing difference too?

Web stamps their cam grind #s on the flat area that the cam sprockets cover (not on the flange but the SHOULDER of the cams) & you can't tell what they are without removing the sprockets or installing a degree wheel & dial indicator to measure lift & duration. Ray.
