    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.

needing help please!

sorry if this is a repost but i am at the completely out of ideas now. it is a 79 gs850 stage 3 jet kit and pod air-filter upgrade. i am at a lost cause the bike was running great up until about 3 weeks ago when stator burnt out. after replacing the stator thinking that was my only issue, the bike will idle and rev up fine in neutral but once a load is put on the engine the bike bogs down and will not move past 10mph. it chokes and that stalls out and really hard to start. even backfires. kick start does not allow me to use it it just fights back. i checked timing and all is correct. even opened and checked cam timing and ever thing seems to check out. compression is 125 on all cylinders. rally confused at this point. any help and i would greatly appreciate it.
 
You have a jet kit in the carbs, were they properly cleaned, also?

Are the valves adjusted?

Is there a fuel filter in the line?

.
 
Thanks I can try the condenser , points have Ben replaced. Yet carbs have been soaked and cleaned . The valve clearances are in spec.
