    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 put the gopro on and made a video and will post it by today. What a difference!!! I now have a gs1000. Valves are perfect, carb is good, could use the dyna needle and 140 mains but the 137.5's do alright with 2 turns out on the air screw. Fow now. after the engine cools im going to check the valve cover bolts and clean it up, tighten the rear break since I recently removed the rear sets and installed the stock stuff, i forgot to adjust the rear break.

Ahh! The side cover fell off during testing. its in the video ill post.
 
Got a few videos up. Here's a link to the latest one where I kept blowing fuses on the freeway. I wired the Dyna power wire into the turning signal relay and I blew fuses twice on the turning signal fuse.

I was told by Paul that it might be the splice connector touching something or shorting out. take a look.

Nice to see the ocean, but looked very flat.
 
Wire the power lead for the Dyna to one of the hot wires going to the coils and that will take care of the issue. The wires to the coil are switched with the key and thats the optimal place to get power for the Dyna lead as well seeing that its on the ignition circuit.
 
I recognize that tank bag. I probably bought that 30 years ago. I think it had mud wasps in it when I pulled it off the garage wall at the Maine house. Those are well made.
