    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.

    Compression testing

    I let it spin until it tops out. It's not going to top out any higher than it's capable of. When you start an engine you get 3 or 4 cycles in a nano second. That would mean nothing to me. If you can get it to 150 cranking it over, stop worrying unless you can pick up another 15-20 lbs by putting...

    '81 GS650G: Aftermarket oversize pistons hit head

    What kind of compression ratio is that end up with anyway? In the old days we would double up on head gaskets, but those were simpler engines & desperate measures.

    My forray in the world of the Goose

    Guzzis are the kind of bikes you work on yourself, not much need for a dealer. I don't get where parts are hard to come by, they are eezy-peezy. Been playing with Guzzis since 1984, and I guarantee she will love that thing. The Wild Goose forum for Moto Guzzi is very much like it is in here...
