    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.

Finally got my charging voltage up to 14.2 volts. It was around 13. I followed the advice given from the lads on the site. Took off the seat and tank and either cleaned or replaced all the connectors. I cleaned all the grounds and took off the fuse box and cleaned it. One problem I discovered was the connector above the engine at the front. The PO had replaced the wires on one side of this by twisting the wires together and putting heat shrink over them. I repaired these by soldering them. Does anyone know where I can get some of these connectors 12way or 6way as I would like to replace these as well. I have searched the internet and can't find any. Now I am looking forward to some trouble free riding around sunny Ireland. I would just like to say thanks again to all of you who took the time to reply to my question. the information was invaluable.
Slainte, Dan
