    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.

If my intake boot o-rings are bad what problems will this cause?...Thank You. 1978 GS 1000
 
Rising idle. You may have your idle adjusted, but notice after riding for a while that it climbs.
 
Your engine will run hot also, due to a lean air/fuel mixture.
 
cycleorings carries them. He is once again a GSR member also, Robert Barr
 
depending on how bad they actually are, they could cause most every issue from a no start/hard start to fluctuating idle to holed pistons and everything in between!!
 
The fact of the matter is that if they are bad they need to be replaced. A lean condition will be created which could do many bad things to your engine ($$).
