    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.

Hi,
I'm new to the forum and love the information. I need to point out I have not got my repair manual yet (oops). I'm trying to get my 82 1100 roadworthy. I have figured out where all hose/nipple connections go from carbs to engine, and petcock to carbs. Where does the nipple on the float mechanism go?
Thanx,
Thump
 
assuming that you are talking about the gas tank sending unit (float) the hose is routed down to the rear of swingarm towards the ground. It is for gas tank overflow.
 
Please excuse my ignorance,but yes it is the sending unit. Of all my bikes this a first for having a gas gauge. Shoot it's the first with a complete dash, complete with a kick stand indicator! 8O Thank you for the help, the bike will be up and runnin tommorow.

Actually, it's not for gas tank over flow, it is a catch basin in case the sending unit leaks. The gas tanks over flow . . . well . . . all over the gas tank.
 
I knew that! My head just wasn't thinking it's been a long hot day
