    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.

I have used the search for the last hour and can't find a diagram of the fuel hoses for a GS650E 1982. PLEASE HELP. Describing the stuff doesn't help. I need pictures:-s Is there an artist amongst us who can scratch out something to see?
 
Freakin sweet, I was wondering where some pics were. The PO before me has the vaccume line blocked off since my petcock is old and drips constantly. Cant wait untill friday(i get my new petcock) then I will see how the bike runs after that.:dancing:
 
OK got it. but check this out. WTF is this about!

That T is not supposed to be there - some sort of misconceived monkey mod.
 
Eliminate the T. It should be a single length of fuel line between the petcock and carbs.

Thanks all you folks! I plugged it off until I get a High flow fuel filter! NOW, ive gotten it started :-) and it Runs… really really HIGH RPM at idle. So high that it doesn't even go into gear. what now? i have turned the idle screw all the way back, to make NO difference. So where does the problem lie now?
The bike was non-running and had aftermarker velocity stacks, with which the bike wouldn't start . So, i replaced the VS's with the stock air box voila. It RUNS, as I stated really High rpms. where do I go from here?

Well, I am no expert by any stretch of the imagination, but you COULD have a huge air intake leak causing the high idle.

With many people, these air intake leaks start small, and often show up only when the bike is warm. (When things expand, etc.) You, however, could have a larger leak.

Try checking the boots that go from the carbs to the cylinder head. (Intake Boots.) There are some o-rings that go between those and the cylinder intake as well, which might need to be replaced. (If you replace them, you can get them from http://www.cycleorings.com.)
