    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

Recently a fellow GSR member I rode with at the RRR suggested using Techron exclusively. He said he's put Seafoam in his tank, and it did NOTHING compared to what Chevron with Techron gas did.

On another board that I frequent, many of the riders are fond of adding things to the gas "because the old girl deserves some special treatment" and other such lines.
Their preferred order of gas additives for cleaning purposes is:
1) Marvel Mystery Oil - "a couple of 'glugs' every two or three tanks"
2) Techron - if normal strength doesn't do it, try doubling the dose
3) Seafoam - normal strength or better will clean out anything the others didn't

If that GSR member uses Chevron gas because of the Techron, it might be that the constant low dose is doing a good job of maintaining his system better than massive doses every once in a while will ever do. :-k

My opinion: Leave it alone and look elsewhere.

This GK looks like it's a 1982, fron the color and footpegs. The carbs should not be black.

Lots of work needed on this one. Be ready to spend lots of time and/or money on it to get it to work properly and look decent.

$300?? You could part it out for far more. I think you did well. Just be prepared to do some work with it, and it'll pay dividends in the end.

Congratulations! And we'll be here for you when you have questions :D
