    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.

    Heck for 3 weeks so far.

    The warpage was not detectable. I got the idea from Chuck's bonfire post from long ago. I use the torch because I had it and it's easier than me trying to start a fire! I just heat it until the smoke stops, and then acid out the inside, then work on the exterior. It's saved me a bunch of time...

    This is what I used on my last one! Works great!

    Heck for 3 weeks so far.

    I have used a large propane torch designed to kill weeds in fence rows on a couple of tanks. It gets all of the liner out really quickly! Of course, you have a bare metal tank when finished, but it's the quickest, cheapest way that I have found to remove failed tank liner.

    Fall Farmington Ride!

    Ok, it's a little way in the future, but here we go! (So you people that plan can do your planning thingy.) The dates are August 20th-23rd in Farmington, Missouri. (and yeah, it's earlier than usual this year.) We normally sleep at the Baymont Inn & Suites and rooms are normally in the $65 -...

    Maybe the most "cobbled-together" bike I have ever purchased!

    And the "almost" finished product! Still have to polish the clutch cover, install the grab bar and rear cowl trim.

    .

    That's a great price for that bike. What is that, about $2150.00 in US dollars? Even if it does have the spoke wheels. GLWS!

    What other parts fit on ‘78 GS750E??

    I wouldn't worry about the '78 wheels having tubes in them from the factory. I've switched 5-6 bikes to tubeless and never had an issue. Some may say that it won't work, and that's OK, "if" it's based on experienced failures. (I personally have never seen a failure.) My real-life experience...

    DIY Damping Rod Tool for my 79 GS850G

    Just take something and push the rubber insert out of the socket!

    idle adjustment: 79 850g

    That's weird! I thought the '79 GS850's all had a kick starter?? But, I have been wrong before. Just ask my ex-wife! :ROFLMAO:

    GS1000 carb to air filter boots

    Oh, that's an easy one! Remove the air filter housing. Of course, if you're talking about an early model GS1000, you get to remove the carbs to get it out!

    idle adjustment: 79 850g

    That's the cam chain tensioner, NOT the idle adjuster! It's automatic and does not need to be fiddled with usually! Look for a thumbscrew on the carbs, usually on the rear side between #2 and #3 carbs on the bottom.
