Well i tried putting it in gear to see if it still would roll. It did but with some resistance. So, I changed the oil thinking maybe some of the gas was still in the oil and maybe creating problems, but that didn't help none that I could tell. Next thing I done was pulled the side cover off...

When i pull the lever there is no free play at all and it feels just like one tension all the way. No difference in it. The other thing i did while i was cking free play was the adjustment on the handle. with the adj. screwed out where it was to start with you could pull the clutch in and put...

Well after we worked till 4:30 In the morning trying to get the bike back together, we have failed in more ways than one. I took the bike on a short ride of less than a half of mile and besides not wanting to idle did OK. Then we 2up and was just going to cruise around the back roads and we...

I have ran the new throttle cable through to where the old one is. Now I need help on how to get the old throttle cable loose. I can't get a wrench in to loosen the old one. Any suggestions?

GREAT !!! Maybe that will solve my problems with the radio.

on a 83 gl 1100, is there a seperate fuses somewhere else besides the ones under the fuel tank flap? Like one for the radio and for the cigarette lighter. Chief

*****************UPDATE********************* Ok, its been a few days since I posted anything about my progress. 1) To start with, the girlfriend took all of my hammers away from me..... 2) Next, I believe we have got the fuel problem taken care of. I am not losing anymore fuel that I can...

ok folks.... I am about 2 seconds away from rolling this bike over the hill and not looking back..... LOL !!! i am needing to get the tank cover off to run the cabels and do some electrical work. I removed the 2 bolts at the rear under the seat, but i cannot find the ones in the front...

Thanks Dan, I will try that and see what happens. I have been told by a gentleman that used to ride goldwings a whole lot, to go and get about 2 gallons of airplane fuel. He said that would burn out any deposits in there. Ever heard of doing this before?

"UPDATE" Well here is the update, I have managed to get the bike unstuck and have gotten it started. But the problems still arise. The bike is running kind of rough, don't know if it is the seafoam i put in the gas or if it might be the 87 octane gas that i put in it(all that i had on hand...

Thanks, i will try that and see what happens.

ok, you all have managed to calm me down some, but where exactly is this starter bolt at that you all are talking about?

Well, sorry for taking so long to reply, BUT, i drive a truck and have very limited time to work on it. Here is what i have found out today, i have quit worring about the carbs for now. I believe the motor is locked. I thought that it might be hyper locked, so i pulled the plugs and still...

well, today i have learned a whole lot of what is going on. apparently the carbs are so gummed up that any gas i put in it is making it all the way down to the oil. So now i guess i get to take the carbs off and try to find some body to clean them. YEAH ME !!!

Thanks Guys, I can hear the starter engage, but will not crank the engine, engine has not cranked over yet since i have had it. Acts like the battery is almost dead. but new battery with a fresh charge on it and it still wont do it. I believe next step is going to be to take plugs out and go...

First of all, any help on this would greatly be appreciated. I just bought an 83 gl100 and it has been sitting for about a year. The guy said he started it last fall but has not been started since.. The problem i am having is i put a new battery on it but when you try to start the bike, it...
