    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

How long, O Lord, How long!!

I know my GS1100gk has a air cooled engine, so how long is it safe to have it runing but setting still while I working on it?

I would guess that depends largely on the ambient temp you're working in...

Best bet, use a fan aimed at the engine when working on it while running...
 
WOW! Who knew that HikerMikeM was the lord?

Now that he's revealed himself I'm going to be on my best behavior!

BTW, I agree with the lord's advice (I'd be crazy not to ... right?) that you use a fan to flow air past the engine. I was going to suggest that myself but hey ... you asked for the almighty's opinion and who am I to step on his toes? :p:D;)

I put a box fan between the front fender and the headers blowing air directly on the headers.
And yes my fan has header marks melted into it. :D
