    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.

    I am about to install new green 3 ohms Dyna coils on a 1978 VS 1000 with a Dyna-S fitted. I also have a set of red Dyna solid copper wires with non resistance automotive plug boots. They are in much better shape than my stock resistance boots. Should I clip off the new boots and install the...

    Bowl vent pipe

    Okay, received the Dynojet kit and installed per Mr. Krause direction. I do think Keith's set up direction is great but looks like I have other problems. #2 and #3 exhaust was not getting as hot as #1 and #4. switched plug wires and output leads from the Dyna S and the problem moved. Looks like...

    Bowl vent pipe

    Keith, Thanks for all the valuable information and for taking the time. I will likely order a jet kit and go with the DJ 138 mains. $ is not really an issue and I spent almost as much on ordering mikuni jets as a DJ kit. I am quite sure that 120 mains was reccomended in the instructions that...

The bike seems to be running okay now but am still a bit concerned if the needle and seat fail or if i forget to cut the fuel as a manual valve is installed. Didnt receive...

    Bowl vent pipe

    Fuel bowl Fuel bowl Well, not a lot of responses.:( I have determined that the pipe is probably more for overflow than bowl venting so blocking it off would be a temporary fix. This should not affect operation but could expose me to filling the engine with fuel if the needle and seat fail...

    Bowl vent pipe

    Drove my 1978 GS1000 to work on Saturday and it ran real well but the return home was another story. 3 weeks had passed since I rode it last so carbs were suspected to be the culprit. The bike stalled a couple of times and was very sluggish of idle. At half throttle it would eventually wake up...

    By the way Sthechen, The code can be seen without removing the fuel cap. It should be faintly stamped where the key is inserted. It was on mine anyway.:)
