    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.

    Fuel/vac line routing

    1982 GS650. I removed the gas tank to replace the camshaft cover gasket. Reassembled and now it will only run at high rpm and/or full choke. I may have put the fuel/vacuum lines on wrong but I’ve switched them back and forth and it doesn’t help. Petcock has two lines coming off-a smaller and...

    Shim kits for valves?

    If I find the valve clearances require me to change shims, do I have to order those individually or is there some kit or package to purchase with various shim sizes? Hoping to not have to leave it apart while I wait for parts.
