    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.

Back on the road again

After about 6 weeks of renovations, my 82 GS1100EZ is back on the road after a multi year hiatus. Complete brake overhaul, carb rebuild, electrical cleanup, etc. Still runs a bit rough at very small throttle openings and a stall here and there, but other than that, runs as good as it ever did, and is still quick enough to scare the bejeezus out of me..!!

Now to chase down that roughness; adjust valves, sync carbs (never been done since new), plug wires/plugs. Wish I'd known about the O-ring kits when I overhauled the carbs, but hope to put that off until next winter.

But sure great to have it back on the road again, thanks to the info from this excellent forum.
