    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.

Hi I own a 1985 gsx750es (uk model) and my problem is that it will not tickover unless it is at 2000-2500rpm if you ease the clutch out the speed drops to 1250rpm but you blip the throttle and it sticks again at 2000-2500rpm.
I have carbtuned the carbs stripped them and cleaned them,re balanced them. if i blip the throtle with the engine off the butterflys snap back. but it still will not tick over corectly. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!
Thanking you all in advance
John
 
Did you seperate the carbs and clean out the choke circuits? Did you clean the airscrew passages? If you sprayed carb cleaner into the disassembled carbs without seperating them or taking out the airscrews you have probably ruined some O Rings in these circuits.
 
You should also check to see that there is a proper airfilter, and no leaks around the rubber boots which attach to either side of the carb throats. Good luck.
 
I have to agree with Bob, It sure sounds like you have an air leak somewhere.
Mine used to do that and it was old, split O rings in between the
carb boots and the intake manifold.

Peace

Sounds like your induction boots are not sealing where they mate to the cylinder head.
