    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.

I am having a problem with my gs650 flat-lining at 4300 rpm-ish when in 5th gear. It also stops at about 6000 in 4th but runs like a champ in all other gears.

Recently I had an eletrical short which blew a few fuses and a rgulator- all of the melted wiring, fuses, and the regulator have been replaced. I also went up two sizes on the main jets since I swapped in some pod filters and the top end was a little lean on the highway.

I think that its the coils dying since it only happens under a high load and in third it runs like a champ. I've also tried two different ignitors ( I had an extra lying around) but no change. Does anyone have any insight to offer? I really don't want to just start throwing money at parts that are not needed.

Compression Test:
120
120
110
100

plugs were light tan indicating a perfect A/F mixture.

I was suprised no one had any input to offer... But I did fix the problem- I put the old stock main jets back in and it runs liek a champ... though it did loose slight power up to about 3500 rpm. I think I may try stepping my pilot jet up one size... or I may just let it be. I'm just really suprised that after changing to pods the A/F ratio is still prety close to dead on. The plugs are reading a little lean but it seems to preform best there.
