    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.

Can anyone suggest a good link or video on youtube of valve shims being replaced on a gs650 , I find a few videos to watch but none realy go into detail ??? It would be greatly appreciated ..
 
Thx Tom .. as for a previous issue I was having with the bike bogging when I crack the throttle ... solved that problem ! It was caused by my 2 inner intake manifold boots having cracked right around the flange part that attaches to the engine side . And it was sucking large amounts of air .. have since ordered 4 new carb boots for the engine side ..
 
Thank for boot update! I've been looking at mine (right at flanges)wondering if they are just going to let go someday when I'm riding. guess I better carry duct tape!
 
Actually a mechanic here in toronto suggested I use the product called the right stuff to repair the boots . I gave it a shot and it appears to be working great .. but opted to order new boots anyways
 
"right stuff" ? is that something advertised at night on TV ? I better not google it- I'm afraid what will pop up!
 
Notsure ... you get it here in toronto atvcanadian tire , where all the silicones andgasket material is .. The right stuff worked awsome !! And cost about $25 canadian and it comes in a silicone tube ..
