    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.

Need a little Advice!

I have a 1980 GS1100E. I have the orginal airbox with a V/H megaphone header and a stage 1 jet kit. I have replaced almost everthing on the bike at this time to include a new Reg./Rec., Wireing Harnes, Stator, Coil Packs (Dyna DC1-1 with a 8mm wires), and had the carbs rebuild last summer. :x
My Problem is that when I first hit the throtle or release it and hit it again I get a hesatation. This happens every time I let off of the throtle no matter what gear or how fast I am going. Once I get past that point it picks up and runs like it should. Durning this hesatation it seams like it is missing. :(
Other issues that my be a part of the problem are I still have a small amount of white smoke comming from the exaust when ideling and a small back fire or puff when idleing and decelerating. The puff as I like to call it dose not happen all of the time. :?
I have replaced everything that I could tring to correct the problem and still it persist. I am not a bad machanic but I just do not have the knowledge to start adjusting the carbs (even though I belive this is the problem). I can do carb work but would prefer a little advice before I start. :oops:
Thanks for any help you can offer!!!!

Check the boots between your cylinder head and carbs, also the ones between the carbs and airbox, these are the "classic" symptoms of leaking boots.

Thanks Dink! I noticed that my rubber boots from the head to the Carbs were sucking some air causeing it to look like they are moveing. I will work on that and see how it goes.
