    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.

update'
i decided to take the bike in to a guy who looked at the bike and said he could get it going ,
he called and said everything i did was good, he syc the carbs, set plug gap , there was a issue with the petcock, even after the rebuild a spring had broken and caused alot of the issues,
he redone the intake seals now i need to find a good petcock and valve cover gasket and rear brake master/ caliper , or kits
 
Glad you haven't given up on it. And 82 850 petcock should be alot easier to find than say a '79 850 (old style). Any petcock problem can cause you some serious headaches.

well i went as far as i could go with the repairs,
this guy is very mituculus,and straight foreword , plus he went to school with me, and shares my same last name although not related ,
the dealer can get a remaned petcock, 100$ found them elswhere for under 60$ so its ordered
the rear master cyl , and caliper are issues at this point, dont know wheather to get kits or replacements?
by the way the bike has been riden now , so the incouragement is the game changer!!
soon as we get the needed items, valve cover gaskets, brakes repaired, new petcock, oil filter/change, tires ,, then its on to cleaning polishing, and new paint scheme. :clap: thanks to all out here,
