    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.

Carb problem

With these low carb diets being all the rage at the moment, and the ole G.S being a heavy beast, what with the faring and all, I decided that the smart thing to do would put the G.S on a low carb diet, so I removed 2 of her carbs. But now the ole G.S won't start, and there's gasoline pissing out of her on to the living room floor. The wife's mad as hell. What should I do, trade the bike ....... or the wife? :D
 
The flip side of the so-called "low carb" diet is that it's also a high-protein diet. (Thank you Dr. Atkins! Bacon all around!)

Stock up on steaks and take the gasoline you'd normally have leaking on the living room floor and use it to light your charcoal grill. Enjoy!

P.S. The pendulum will eventually swing back the other way and people will be back onto a high-carb fad. Avoid this. It's too hard to see around a carb that's mounted too high. D.
 
Oh, this is simple, happens all the time. When you take carbs away the GS Gods get angry. The solution is to stand on your head and cluck like a chicken for 10 minutes. If you fall over, or pass out you will need to start over. This is particularly effective if you do it balanced on the bikes seat.

Should start right up after that.

A low carb diet isn't good for a GS because it will lose too much weight and be too thin to ride. Stick the carbs back on and put some pasta in the gas tank.....and call me in the morning. :?

Now, as far as the wife.....based on my track record, I can assure you that is outside the realm of my expertise... :roll:
 
well i will chime in and say keep the bike they don't nag as much :P

And they require about a quarter of the maintenance if you don't mess with em!

But keep in mind that the disposal fee for the wife is prohibitive.
 
Thought about standing on me head and clucking like a chicken, but with the federal election upon us, I wouldn't want to run the risk of being mistaken for a politician :D
