    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.

Rattle - Low RPM and when shut off

Thanks to all the good advice I received on this site, my 1983 GS1100ED is up and running once again. It really runs great. But there is an issue.

At low RPM (under 2000) and when I shut down there is a noticeable rattle. It almost sounds like my starter gear is still spinning for a bit.

I had to replace all of the bolts over the winter, as they all sheared, leaving me with no starter.

I used Loctite red and torqued the new bolts down as tight as I could. I also used my air-gun to tighten the flywheel nut back up.

Am I going to have to go back in and check my work?

Thanks so much for reading.
