    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.

hi
the battery in my gs 750 83' turns the engine really slow een when the starter motor has bben rebuilt. when i connect it to a car battery of 12 volts but much higher amp the engine turns really really fast.the bike starts instantaniously.is that a problem with the solenoid or the battery (it is new, the battery).would it hurt the bike if i install a car battery permanantly?
the other thing is that th bike came wuthout an air cleaner from the previous owner.now i cant get hold of a new or usd one as it is an offmarket bike in pakistan.any remedies.
i just rebuilt it to an oversize and it does not seem to have much torque.
it starts ok ,runs ok but no torque .any suggestins?

air box and torque

reduce your front gear size or enlarge the rear sprocket toothcount.Ripout the stock carbs and slap in some smoothbores,I have 29's on mine but I feel the 750 motor could handle 32mm.Then put on a good 4-1 exhaust and that should get you started.About the car battery,your gonna burn up your charging system.be careful.Secondly the idea is less wait as possible so you can drink more beers.Out
 
The enging may still be tight from the rebuild needing a few miles to loosen up
 
Sounds like a bad battery - even new ones can be bad BTW.

You can use a car battery if you like with no ill effects - if you can mount it.

No torque? Hard to say. Check the compression. Did you clean and sync the carbs?
