    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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.

Slopoke,

Just ordered a Pingle from Murdoch Racing. Should arrive here tomorrow!! Thanks for the lead, and very reasonable on the pricing. Will let you all know how it turns out. Thanks again for all of the advise!
 
just for the record guys, the L model has no "Prime" position on the factory petcock. Also standard diaphragm replacement kits don't work for it cause it uses a larger diaphragm than the standard GS. Positions on the petcock are ON and RES. Factory unit sells for about $50 and last time I checked was still available from Suzuki.
 
Does it work?

Does it work?

Did that solve your problem? Do you have a running bike now?
 
Yep...have a running bike. I have to do a little fine tuning...but took it out for its first ride in 8 years this past Sunday. It is an awesome bike, can not wait to get it running to its true ability!
