    A note to old forum members...

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.

    Any suggestions for freeing stuck pistons in cylinder

    if its feasible try the rear wheel trick again but go through the motions of a bump start. Far more energy input that way. Do be ready on the clutch if the tire breaks loose.

    80 GS550e oil change and nothing in the sight glass?

    Also OP was the engine worked on at all. There are pockets in the head that hold a considerable amount of oil and if these were empty the bike was improperly reassembled and would need more oil.

    80 GS550e oil change and nothing in the sight glass?

    The suggestion to put the bike on the centre stand is a very wise legal dept warning. The difference would be negligible but the bike wont fall on you or your pet parakeet. The notion that it came from the engineering department is insane. The ultimate accuracy issue is that the bike be level...

    Uneven Front Tire Wear

    Nonsense. A single rotor front brake twists the forks and causes uneven wear of both tire and brake pads. It arises from the tolerances in stanchions and wheel and steering bearings. Utter ignorance to suggest a things existence is proof of flawlessness.
