    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.

Starter Clutch not ingaging on GS1100!!!

  • Thread starter Thread starter 82GS1100e
  • Start date Start date
YES! just read the posts of Katman re OEM vs harder versions.
I'll stick with OEM.
cheers!
 
im not trying to thread jack you bud i just have a quick question related to this matter...

i'm having the same problem as you, the starter will turn and turn but the engine wont even fire a single cylinder. the bike ran fine about a month ago untill i overheated it, then hard starting, now no starting or firing...

i was wondering if i could still bump start it with a burnt out starter clutch just to confirm its nothing else that is wrong.

im not wanting to ride around, just push it down my street and see if i can get it to idle...

Thanks!

Ok, I can't get this biatch to budge just using standard socket wrench ..

1) this is regular thread? lefty loosey / righty tighty?

2) should I try some sort of cheater bar, (waiting for thread direction confirmation) or am I looking at incorporating heat??

(using the method of having someone engage rear brake while in 4th gear)

THANK YOU
