    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.

Right, putting the choke rod in now but am confused which carb the bracket bolts to, as it will go on any within reason, also on the carb pictorial it shows a return spring that the rod goes through, i dont have that ! is this correct for the gs650gt ? will it return without it or is it best to source one ?, thanks
 
Janner,
Please remember that not every one who may know something will see the question and be able to respond within 39 minutes. You have to give folks some time to even see it and then craft the response.

Either way I assume you have it figured out but typically the choke mount gets attached to the number 2 carb (at least on mine it did).

Best thing to do next time is to take pictures of your work before taking anything apart so you can reference them later. After not doing that myself on more than one occasion I'm making more of an effort to do it now.

His sig say 650GT, so I would presume it's an '80. :-k

He also specifically said it's for a 650GT. :p

I didn't think they had a 650 in '80, but that's OK.

yeh , sorry for the impatience , you know what its like !! anyway, figured it all out easy enough when i went back and scratched my head, carbs all done now , just doing the tensioner then put it all back together, summer will be gone before i get chance to ride the goddam thing soon.
 
What do you expect, you do live in Cornwall. haha

Just for reference there were two different choke mechanisms on the GS650 carbs setups, so the year model is very important when asking questions of this type.
 
Hiya Don, I,ll add the year to my sig then it,ll be easier in future, and yeh , its blowing in Cornwall at the moment !!!! :lol:
