    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.

Is there ever an issue with timing on these motors? How do you time them? (I lost my manual) :roll:
 
Re: Timing?

I do not believe the timing is adjustable for an 82 GS1100. To check if it is, remove the round crankshaft cover on the right side of the engine case. You will see a 6" round plate mounted by three machine screws located at the 12, 4 and 8 oclock positions. If the breaker plate only has holes for the machine screws to go through, then you timing is not adjustable, If the machine screws go through slots in the breaker plate, then the timing is adjustable.

I Just Pulled The Cover On My Bike And The Plate Only Has Holes For The Screws To Go Through. So My Question Is , Is The Timing Preset At The Factory And You Cant Adjust It At All?? Any One With Experience With This Please Reply
 
The timing is non adjustable. The aftermarket Dyna ignition is adjustable, but the stock unit is not.
