    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 to remove IG coils from GS1100

This is driving me crazy. I have everything off the frame prior to powder coating execpt the coils - but the coil retaining bolts (there are 4) spin without unscrewing.

The bolts have a lower 10mm nut, a 10mm nut half way up and a philips head. I've tried holding all 3 at the same time but STILL the lower nut won't come off.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the pic. Nut 21 is the one that should screw off. BUT on the coils I have the nuts is on the bottom.

I still don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm looking for a "been there / done that" hands on tip.

Sorry for no "been there done that" but I've never had a problem removing coils. I was just hoping the pic would help. :-D
What year and model of bike do you have? Are the coils stock?
 
Tried to unscrew mine from the top thinking they were captivated nuts. In the end had to take the lower nut off and the middle nut holds the bolt in place to the coils.

Put a philips in the top and then undo the bottom nut, should be easy.
