    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.

    Toyota Rav4 only come with hybrid engines in 2026

    I had a 2022 Ford Maverick hybrid pickup until I traded it in for a 2025 Maverick. Absolutely no problems on the first one which got me well over the rated mpg and the 2025 model seems even nicer although I am still on my 1st tank (700 mil range) so I can't comment accurately on the mileage...

    83 GS650, fourth time carbs in!

    The mains had been drilled out on the first GS I got. Previous owners do weird things.

    Adjusting clearances on all four intake valves by removing cam shaft?

    The MotionPro version of the Suzuki tool has some sloppy casting. There is a tiny raised stripe around the center of the perimeter. Gently filing that down some makes it a little less prone to slip sideways.

    Adjusting clearances on all four intake valves by removing cam shaft?

    Some buckets have more bevel on the lip of the bucket which means less surface for the tool to ride on making it prone to slip off.

    650 gs carbs...Steve?

    This is weird. I have always held Steve in high regard. He can be a bit crusty at times but is knowledgeable and helpful. He has always seemed devoted to the GSR purpose of people sharing info and helping each other. This situation is eerily similar (almost a carbon copy) to the way his...

    Yep, that's the generally approved way after dipping. I use ultrasonic instead of 24 hr dipping but can't swear it's as good.

    High cruise rpm, what do I have?

    My '83 1100G hits about 4000 rpm at 70 mph. I agree with you that it seems impossible to be that far off with a different final drive or anything like that. It must be speedo or tach error or something that's been swapped in from a different sized GS bike. I think Salty monk meant to say his...
