    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.

RPMs drop slowly after engine warm.

Before my ride yesterday, after the engine warmed up and choke was off, my RPMs would return to idle after revving. After my ride of about 60km, the engine was taking about 5-8 seconds to return to idle after revving. The ambient temperature was about 10C.

This '82 GS650G has never done this before, but also, it was my first ride > 10km this season.

What can cause this, what can solve it?

Thanks in advance.
 
I was afraid of that. The boots are hard, and have some sort of hard sealant on the boots that looks like it was applied wet with a popsicle stick. I've been putting off doing a carb clean, and boot replacement because it's been running well, and I've been putting my time and money into getting my GS850 running. I was hoping to get my 850 road worthy before starting to tinker with my 650.
