    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.

    Dude, where's my gas?

    Check and see if your oil smells like gas and is over full. do not run the bike until the issue is solved. I would suspect it is a carb problem, needle valve. Someone else will chime in.

    1982 GS50M TDC Question

    Also there is a member here named Basscliff that has a very informative site with loads of information. He might have a factory manual for your bike that you can download. Look up his name on the members list and there might be a link.

    Oil dripping from exhaust manifold - 1980 gs550 et

    HELP, any electrical gurus.

    Sorry I was under the impression you went to MMI. To answer your question working on modern engines I would consider one to be a tech, on older engines mechanic. I would value the back yard Joey mechanic any day over the tech.:p

    HELP, any electrical gurus.

    That's why they call them technicians now (or parts changers) If the scanners can't narrow the problem down just keep changing parts till it's fixed. Anyone know where to hook the scanner to my Carbs, you know the thingy that meters my fuel! I would download the Manuel for that meter and not...
