A Sportster (XL1200S) came in recently, so I haven’t even touched the GS1000S since Pokidam 2\u2026
\nWell, the GSF1200 is out on a trip right now.
\nThe Forza died today due to a radio signal issue.
\nSince it was warm today, I investigated the mysterious fuse that blew on Pokidam 2.
\nI was using a smaller amperage fuse, so I thought that was the culprit and swapped it out, but still\u2026
\nNo good.
\nI removed the tank and inspected the suspicious harness.
\nMost likely, there was a ground that wasn’t making contact properly\u2014the same issue that happened before\u2014so I added wiring to the engine
\nand grounded it directly instead.
\nAfter cleaning up the area, let’s see\u2026
\nOh! It’s fixed! That’s great! \u266a
\nNow I’m finally doing the carburettor tuning! Today it’s about needle position and adjusting the three PJ settings and their effects.
\nThe results keep getting better, and it’s become a really nice-running GS (still a work in progress) \u2605
\nI was so happy I gave it a coat of wax \u25ce
\nOnce I fix the oil weep, it’ll be a lovely GS1000S.
\nThis bike has so much more I want to do to it\u2014there’s no end in sight.
\nThese are bikes I want to keep forever \u2605
