    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.

slight vibration

ok currently i have the tins and plastics off the bike to be painted and something has bin poking at my mind since my last ride.

i had checked the valves and dipped the carbs last fall. the valves were on the tight end but still within spec so i left them alone. oil, gear oil, and final drive oil changed. gonna order new boots for the air box they are a bit hard. just synced the carbs. now ive been noticing more vibration for lack of a better description in my butt. i rode it last yr and i dont think it was that much.

i did a search all i found was sync and valves for increased vibration:-k
 
Hi,

Next time you can try syncing your carbs at 2000 or 3000 rpm so that you get a smoother running engine at higher revs. If you sync them at idle then your idle will be smooth, but the higher revs may not be.

It's also possible that you have developed some leaks in your air intake and new boots could help. Remember to re-sync the carbs after repairing the air intake and swapping shims.


Thank you for your indulgence,

thanks cliff ya i forgot to mention new o-rings and intake boots the airbox has to be resealed that is for sure. i synced the carbs at about 2000 maybe i should try closer to 3000 with a good fan in front when i get the tins n such back.

i know i keep saying this but i am very very grateful for this forum! ive never been so excited about riding this bike!

lol another quick question when i rode it at about 3000ish and twisted the throttle it almost seemed like it was a rubber band. slight twist for a little more power was like the pull back and then held for a second than weeeeeeeeeee! is that normal? since its a heavy bike? at 6000+ quick throttle responce.
