    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.

    Yeah got to the point where the air screws can throw it off just by looking at them, so I'd leave it alone. Couldn't help to be surprised by the result, started from 1 turn out each screw and the best I got it running were the settings I've posted. I was expecting to be closer to 2 turns out...

    Exhaust + Pods, VM26 carbs. When I got the bike it was all set to stock specs, and had to rebuild the head so all from above the cylinders was rebuilt fresh. After reading a lot in the forums about how to properly tune for pods and seeing others success (or not!), decided to start messing with...

    Introducing my custom GS1000

    Thanks, I live in the southernmost part of Patagonia, so it looks like this in summer: ​ Can't avoid some dirt roads to get to the pavement, that's very common here. And yeah we're just starting riding season, could go as further as April if I dress up enough to keep warm, but when winter...

    Introducing my custom GS1000

    This is my '79 GS1000. Been lurking the forums for over a year now so I wanted to give a huge thanks to everyone here for keeping this up and sharing so much useful information. It really helped me out in this quest of getting this bike running as it should. Bought it as is, but running very...
