    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.

1982 GS650 G - battery ground question

I annotated the schematic and the pictures to show how it probably was from the factory. My recomendation for reattachment for a single point ground are as follows.
Also while the ring lugs can can be clean, the main problem area is in the crimps of an of teh bulet or ringlug connectors. Those should be cleaned with an acid like Naval Jelly and them heated to get some solder to flow into the crimp. You fuse box should get the same treatment.

After everything is nice and clean, use the dialectic grease to keep the ground surfaces from oxidizing.​



[FONT=+mj-lt][FONT=+mj-lt]1.[/FONT]Attach A to the engine case[/FONT]​

[FONT=+mj-lt][FONT=+mj-lt]2.[/FONT] Move ac and d to the same mounting bolt on the side plate[/FONT][FONT=+mj-lt]
(This could be either on the left of right side bolts. The one where c is mounted would be fine )​

[FONT=+mj-lt]3.[/FONT]Clean up the connector on b and then attach to a mounting bolt on the frame​

[FONT=+mj-lt]4.[/FONT]To complete my recommendation, I would also add a single frame ground wire F with double ring lugs between the common single point in 2 above (ac and d and F ) and another frame attachment point​
