    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.

Bike wont start - cold right side exhaust

I checked out a GS 750 today that is for sale. I'm thinking of buying it to fix up. But there seems to be problems and I wondered if you guys knew what's up.

The bike started with the choke out. But we couldn't get it to warm up enough to take out on the road. The air out of the left side exhaust was hot and out the right side exhaust was cold. When I touched the engine, the left side was hot whilst the right side was cold. There was no backfiring.

Ideas anyone?
 
Could be many things. Blocked carbs is one reason. Ignition problems is another. Could be a really cheap fix, or require a little or more money. If the bike is cheap it is worth a go.
 
Since 3&4 are fired by different coils I have to say CARBS pluged up
 
Souns like what mine did when the carbs clogged up.I also have a ninja that done it and it was no more tha a bad plug.
 
i had the same problem with my twin turned out being a coil...even after adjusting the new points and installing new condensors the one cylinder insisted running on and off depending on rpm's.....i switched it to the good coil and the problem switched to other cylinder plus i bench tested them both..
