    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.

BA,

Good to hear the GK is running well with the carb clean and new battery.
I have been cautious with spraying lubricant in spedo/tach out of concern for getting it on the back of the glass.

Tell us about the symptoms with the tach.
I have had cable fail/break to where tach jumps around and falls to zero, then jumps around some more and falls to zero. Pull cable from back of tach and the thning is spinning, but can stop it real easy with fingers.
Just the other day the tach was not going above 1 or 2 k, cable exhibited the same symptom, so I replaced it with a new one. Later, later looked at old one and the cable wasnt broken along the length, but the cable came out of the bit at the engine. I stuck it back in and crimped the bit some... should have done that before.
SO... what is your symptom? Stays at zero? jumps around? doesnt go over 1 -2 K?
 
I have a nice ratty gk and it seems to do just fine compared to new modern technobikes .
 
im not sure ,Moab stands for a bunch of other stuff...mother of all butts to me because of all the gorgeous mountain bike mammas in their nice tight lycra
