    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 thought I'd ask one more time...

In addition to changing the halogen fluid in our light bulbs, as Pharkmeh suggested, we should change the air in our crankcases.

Drain any remaining oily substance from your crankcase, funnel this slick stuff into your tires. Then change the air in the crankcase and let it run for a few minutes. You can use an air compressor to speed up the process. Start the engine, run it hard for 15 to 20 minutes, or as long as it needs to be run.

As soon as the engine stops, then begin your conversion to fuel injection, or, better yet, a hydraulic clutch. The GS will run real good then!

After reading this thread I have to go and change the air between my ears. :shock:
 
A romantic glow?

A romantic glow?

What if the only air I can find is 'reverse osmosis' and not 'double distilled'? Will that work? Also, I accidentally spilled some halogen fluid into my tire oil. Now my tires give off this phosphorescent glow at night. It's actually kind of cool looking. But will it affect the handling?

I really appreciate all the expertise here. You guys are great! :-D

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
 
wow - you guyz have it all - special tyre oil changing ramps and everything ffs :shock:

Reverse osmosis is fine, it's a little higher viscosity so expect a slight bit of sluggishness on cold mornings. If this is a problem, adding a small amount of 93 octane helium might help.

The halogen fluid won't harm the tires, but don't get any on the paint or you might end up giving yourself night blindness. There have been some people reporting that putting it on the chrome and aluminum parts increases the shine, but that's a load of crap. It'll look good at first but you'll end up with serious pitting in the long run, and do you have any idea how hard it is to get halogen fluid out of a tiny pit?

Oh, BTW, does anyone know the correct antifreeze to use in the gauges? Winter's coming up and I don't want my speedometer freezing up on me.
 
BassCliff,

I can't believe these jokers are making fun of your question. I run plain old 10W-40 in my tires. I finally switched to synthetic though.

you could probibly have a line ,from youre oil cooler that got rid of the old oil (just under the front wheel)and have a spare 40 liters in a tank on the back seat .then you wouldnt have any sludge build up and you wouldnt have to use a pesky oil filter.....
