    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.

So i was Given a 1980 GS1000g a couple of years ago and just started getting working on it this weekend I installed a MAC 4 into 1 exhaust, a Dynojet stage 3 jet kit, and a EBC street racing clutch. the bike has a cheap set of pods on it. the problem is the two vacuum lines that help the slides arent attached to anything. i was wondering where they attach in a stock setup and how you guys are running these lines to pods or stacks or such any help will be greatly appreciated. i am itching to ride again....
 
I've got an 80' 1000G but I've only got one vacuum line on the carbs, the one that goes to the petcock, the other two are vent lines....as far as I know. I've just left mine open, bike runs great.
 
yep they are vent lines, usually go to the airbox if fitted. with pods, just remove the vent lines completely, they are not needed and will not affect engine running
