    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.

HELP !! 1985 GS700ES stock airbox install HELP !!!

I'm glad you resolved your carb/air box issues. It is total bull****
to have to go thru what you endured. I don't like a poorly designed
bike where you have to go to the extremes just to maintain it with
a simple carb pull that takes all of your time in a matter of days
which could be minutes.

The $4/gal of gas is already a strain just to run the darn thing
as the operational costs are sky-high to enjoy it. No matter if
$6/gal, the cost effect is still worth it and favorable with 45-50
mpg in gorgeous California weather of 80F.

Let's ride !!

:-D\\:D/

Next time THROW the airbox in a TRASH CAN & put pods on it with a good jet kit & a 4 into 1 exhaust. You will be MUCH happier with the performance AND the ease of working on the carbs! Ray.
 
ok, I just confirmed that it IS possible to get the airbox out without cutting it or dropping the engine. BUT it requires splitting it along the seam down the center.

I don't plan on putting mine back in, but I wanted to keep it intact anyway.
