    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.

Do these things fail very often? I just got done replacing the hub thing that stripped out in the rear wheel then three days later the 1-4 coil quit working swapped the coils around and the same problem occured, signal generator seems to be ok but after the bike runs for about 3 or 4 minutes the module quits firing the coil
 
Yep, sounds like a bad igniter. When they are old and they get hot, they quit working sometimes. For what a new one costs, you can probably put on a dyna S for less money. That will eliminate the igniter.
 
If you install the Dyan system on the GS's with the electronic ignition, does it still eliminate the ignitor. I thought this only worked on the points systems because the timing was also controlled by the ignitor box on the 82 and newer bikes. Any one know for sure??
 
Yes it does. You will have to get a mechanical advance from an older points bike. Then it will work.
