    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.

I just finally got my 750 T all re-assembled,here's what I've done:

cleaned carbs,new o-rings,synced and floats set

tank cleaned and lined

new air filter,air box is nice and tight

fresh oil and filter

now I started her up (this is after not having run for over a year)and she fired up almost immediately!Great!But she revved to ~7000,so I quickly shut 'er down.Is there a link to proper throttle cable adjustment procedure?Hopefully that's the problem....I'm still thrilled that it fired and ran....

Cable is too tight or the throttle stop idle adjustment is in way too far.

Just loosen everything up until nothing is pulling at all, then tighten the throttle stop until it idles, then tighten the cable so there is just a little play and turning the bars does not effect the idle speed. Tighten the locknuts on the cable.
 
Did you remove and clean the right hand control unit?
I know I put the cable end in the wrong hole once and it did the same thing.

new prob

dang why don't any of you live in Winnipeg?;)I adjusted the throttle cable backed it off as described above and it sat there idling away.just over 1000rpm,but not evenly,some fluctuation.I decided to feel the exh pipes #1,#2 hot,3 and 4 not?Huh?what gives,aren't the coils 1&4,2&3?I pulled the plug on#4 cyl and grounded it to the head,pressing starter I saw an orangey,brown spark.Bad,right,should be fat and blue,methinks.I was pretty fanatical about the carb clean procedure.Should I talk the tech at the local Suzuki shop into stopping by to check it out?I'm sure a qualified tech could sort it out in no time.I'm learning,but sure have a ways to go:o

He probably wouldn't be able to find the computer hook up on your bike, so I doubt he could explain it to you*

How many volts to the coils? probably a candidate for the coil relay mod

Try a new spark plug cap
Make sure the intake boot clamp screw heads arent' blocking the throttle linkage.
