    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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.

starting last week my bike keeps dying on me. i drive it around all day no problems then go to start it up again, and the battery is dead. Thought it was the old battery so i go and buy a new one. Was all going good until sunday, drive it all day and then it is dead again, charge it until monday, then drive it to the VFW and go to leave and the bike is dead, mind you that was the only time i drove it that day, then today i drive it all day, and finally am sitting at an intersection in the turning lane, i wait for 2 lights with no signal to go, so i turn it off to not get it tooo hot, go to start it again and it was dead. what it going on, im tired of having to call for help in the worst places.
 
I would look for a good stator, and hook up with Duanage for a good R/R.....nail them both at once. Then enjoy some riding.... Its fairly simple and there is a boat load of info on here:D

Might as well check them before throwing parts at it.

Hi Mr. dirtracer12x,

I assume we're still talking about your 1980 GS850GL. Yes, as the others have mentioned, go through the Stator Papers to get your charging system sorted out. See the supplemental guides on my website regarding stator replacement/testing and r/r replacement.

Might I suggest that you put your bike in your sig so that we don't have to search your previous posts to find out what bike we're trying to fix? Thanks!

Let us know how it goes. :)


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
