    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.

New intake boots works wonders...

Ok, on the road again. Vroom Vroom!

My new intake boots came in late today, put them on, and vroom vroom!

Question (for Robert Barr). I got the intake gaskets from Mr. Barr, but they were small. I had to stretch them into the boots, cover them with a piece of thin cardboard, put the cardboard on the cyl head and slip the cardboard out. Where the ones I got too small? I think maybe. But, they are on and working, so...

Anyway, I'm going to Astoria, OR tomorrow if anyone wants to join me. PM me.
 
I cant wait to have my bike do the same when I get my intake boots and o-rings. Glad to hear your bike is going vroom vroom:). I would take care of those o-rings though. Although the o-rings you have now may work, I would order the larger ones if you have to stretch and make them fit on your boots. Have fun man.
 
I suspect you have the proper o-rings, the wrong size won't fit at all. A little grease in the o-ring groove usually is enough to hold them in place during install.
 
Good news indeed, enjoy the bike! Always joyous to hear of a problem solved and a GS owner enjoying his ride. :cool:
