    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.

Need GS1000 choke pictures...

When I bought my GS1000GT the choke was disconnected by the previous owner, not sure why this is, but in an attempt to help fix my cold start problems I would like to hook this back up. I am not entirely sure how to do this, my service manual is not really going into much detail about it either.

The large choke rod has connectors for smaller pins on carbs 2, 3 and 4, not sure how it is supposed to connect to pin 1. And I see that somewhere between 3 and 2 the choke cable connects to the rod (not sure how it works).

To give me a head start, perhaps someone with a similar model could take a picture of the choke rod and choke pin on carb 1, and if possible a picture of where the cable connects to the rod itself (probably difficult to do this since it is slightly out of view).

I would appreciate any and all assistance.
 
Should be the same as an 850, I'll take pictures tomorrow in the daylight

Thanks, that white bar going across carb 2 that hooks the choke level into the choke ail is what I appear to be missing.

I just got my service manual last night and saw this on the microfiche, I suspect this will be something I can manufacture myself though, there is no sense is spending seom $$ to order a replacement, lol.
 
You may also ask here in the parts section. Many members have parts they don't need anymore. Some salvage yards sell parts off carbs that are too damaged to sell as a bank. Cheap.
