    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.

Engine missing at around 6000rpm

Hi guy's, I have just bought a gsx 1100e, it needs a little tlc. I had an oil leak from the tach drive so put degreaser on the engine and used high pressure washer to clean it. Probably a silly thing to do but did rest of bike whilst i was at it, ie tank off and battery out etc sprayed all electrics. I put it all back together and the engine had a real bad miss in it at all speeds and revs, was hardly rideable. Got hair dryer out and went over electrics i could see ie coils etc and the bike ran a lot better but it now still misses at around 6000rpm regardless of what gear your in. Anyone got any ideas on what it might be. Mate and i took carbies of in case water inside so that shouldn't be the problem. Any help appreciated.

It still has water some where. Try pulling the plug wires off and drying them out, and all the connections that you see.
 
undo all the connectors and connector blocks, squirt with WD40 and replace.
may even be worth doing the kill switch and ignition switch if you pressure washed the whole bike
