    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.

I understand and agree that its easy to become exasperated with some of the questions people post on the internet. I do myself at times become annoyed with what I perceive as a stupid question or post.

I have been on the site quite a lot lately due to having started a large overhaul on my GS (large to me). So I have been pouring over a lot of question threads lately farming info for my own use. During that time I have noticed some reactions to new users that I felt weren't deserved, or were over the top.

No specific users were consistently responsible it just felt like a general feeling of impatience towards some of the new guys. So please don't take this particular thread as the poster child for what I am talking about.

It is a two way street, but you are correct sometimes the old timers let their hair down a little too far :) self included

? im lost guys i dont have alot of time for trial and error. Any help would be greatly appreciated. just tried to add vid/pics and it wont let me.

Lord helps those that helps themselves..............
 
if the new guys would follow generally accepted forum etiquette and introduce themselves first, maybe, I dunno, use some punctuation or something, then maybe MAYBE the responses would have less snark. Just an idea.
 
hey, its me the OP. thanks guys for all the great information and invaluable wisdom;) . seriously though i've since put a baffle in the pipe
(doesnt sound so "badass" anymore) and filled and redrilled the slide holes to 7/64. and checked the jet sizes. the bike accelerates but bogs out at 3/4 to full throttle. im wondering if i need a even bigger main and needle jet to go with it. and whats wrong with pods and pipes on a G reaally though?

There is a long copper tube on the end to get in front of the collector to avoid having air leaks corrupt your measurements.

You can make the tube to stick up any of the individual down pipes if you wish, but generally there is no need for different jetting across the carb bank.Having said that the stock 1150's run 1 size up on the main on the inner cylinders. On my 1166 I don't. I used a thermocouple to see if there were differences between exhaust temps which I saw no need for further individual cylinder monitoring.

Would it not help in figuring out if they are all at par. Lets pretend one of those carbs the culprit, plugged jet or something?
