    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.

Bogs after 6RPM

82' GS850. The carbs are all synced and everything. 4-1 Vance and Hines pipe. I had gotten some SS bolts for the tops and bottoms of my carbs and along with that got some o-rings for the intake boots because I had a vibration around 4RPM. So I put new bolts on my carbs and replaced the o-rings which were flat against the boots themselves. If I put my bike on center stand and throttle it any RPM at any time it fires like a rocket and also I switched through the gears on the center stand and as well no hesitation or sounds of bogging. However when I take it for a ride if I go easy through the gears no prob at all. When I romp on the throttle around 4RPM and up it sounds like it is gasping for air. Before I put bolts and o-rings on, it did not do this. Thanks for the help.
 
I don't have pod filters. I just have a K&N filter. I checked it and put new weather stripping on top of the filter case. The filter is lightly sprayed and can see through it with no debris. I am going to take my carbs off and just check the intake boot o-ring's to see if they set in the grooves right.
 
Plug chop.

Get it up to 6 on the street and hit the kill switch, pull a plug.
