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...
New users should be sure to read the FAQ as well as the posts in the Announcements forum. This will answer many of the questions you may have about how this forum works.
Before posting questions in the forums be sure to use the forum search function!!! Odds are your question has already been asked and answered before. And when posting, please make sure that you post to the correct forum.
Finally, be sure to check out BassCliff's website here. He has useful information that can't be found on this site. His welcome page containing useful GS information can be found here. Be sure to check it out!
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password, chances are your account is deleted. Just create a new forum account and you should be all set.
,Old Skool(sorry for misspelling your tag before!),I think he is talking about the mechanical slide type used mainly on 2 strokes ie.round slide or Mikuni RS34 flatside which are also mechanicaly operated with an arm the same as the GS550,750DB(wire wheel and rear drum braked at least in the UK) '76-79 and the GS1000HC,N and E '77-79, I thought that you had to buy the whole piston/diaphragm as a complete part because any microfische or online diagram I've ever seen has them that way.Hampshire-yup it was NRP, didn't want to name them in case they used this forum or had friends who do as I don't like to cause embarrasment if I don't have to-except to myself in which case I don't really care
,also I didn't have my parts back!!!!.Johnbb, those look to be fantastic value!,will definatlet invest in 4 when funds allow-thanks.Anyway got the parts this morning, warmed them and fitted them.Hit the starter and we had life-until I let the choke off kuga,kuga,stall-oh ***k, what now? turned out that pillock here had put the drain pipe from the BOTTOM of the carbs onto the fuel tap instead of the damn vaccum pipe from the TOP
, it technically shouldn't have started at all but with that fixed started fine and a quick spin up the road confirmed that if I nail it in 4th I'd better hook my feet under the footpegs-and no I'm not going to say just how fast I was going,but acceleration was enough to make me slide backwards on the seat.Once again thanks to everyone who posted for your help. Johnny
,Andy the boss of NRP was very apologetic when he phoned and is now trying to get compensation from Royal Mail-if you pay for special delivery(which the company charged me for after I asked for quick turn around) and the package is not at it's destination by 1pm next day they are fined.We shall see.Johnny
