Did you do a bulb check Frank? All the indicator lights should light up when you press the start button. The bulb is part of the circuitry also for the Res switch circuitry. Like Red bone suggested check the continuity of the fuel sending unit and the connection of the sending unit. I keep...

You may have done this already, but I did the big battery mod and installed a 420 CCA battery in my old 85 and it spins over like a Mack truck. I have a plain 4 pole, probably a Chinese made starter. Rick's starters does have good reviews though, but I can't find where it says they are a high...

ELVIS AND CELINE DION SING TOGETHER Well, almost. Celine was only about 9 years old when Elvis died. But in case you missed this on American Idol, Celine sang with Elvis via the amazing 3 D effect of the hologram. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXhxPReyqYM&feature=youtu.be

If you are copy and pasting from another site, always paste it in note pad. Then copy and paste the msg from note pad and it will look like this. I went back to one of your other post and did it so you can see the difference. http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?p=383308#post383308 Imagine...

Stator volts should be around 40 volts on all 3 legs (AC). You should post some pics of your connections. Here is a good write up on the subject............. http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?t=19108

Carbtune is what most members buy and use, I've had mine for years and no problems. It will pay for itself on the first use, most dealerships will charge more than you will pay for a Carbtune...

Try backing your mixture screws out to see if it changes. The shotgun may help also. Here is a link to the website that explains it....and there are LOTS of pics, and if you get lost...or have anymore questions...dont hesitate to ask. Adding some Seafoam to your fuel may help the problem also...

David, where will you call home when you get back to the States?

Well, I certainly did not know that, You should advertise your services here on the forum. I bet a lot of members would be interested in having an extra key or 2 for their bike. If some one's key code is missing, could you possibly take their faux cover lock, make a key and come up with the...

Yes, that is the sticker I was referring to, and that is the key code..........

I'm curious about your MPG before the chip install and then after?

If the label hasn't fell off, the key code is on the metal frame of the ignition switch underside. You have to remove the switch to find it. If you have the service manual, some times the dealer will write the key code on the back of the first page or some where in the manual. Some say if you...

I would not consider this a true test Pete, because John mentioned his engine was not up to par such as he could hear every thing in the engine making noise. I think I ran across some documented oil thread forum that even stated oil viscosity makes more HP when thinner oil was used. Some one may...

Mileage should go up with the right oil level. Example, how much energy will it take to run across a pool of water with 2 feet of water in it, not much. Then try running across the same pool with 5 feet of water in it, you would have to expel a lot of energy to make it across the five foot pool...

Hopefully you don't have this, but your symptoms don't point to it. Or does it ???

I also think you have too much oil in the bike. It does not matter if engine is hot or cold when checking the oil level, but if you have rode the bike it should sit for 10 minutes for oil to drain down from the upper engine components. The bike needs to be straight up when checking oil, just as...

Usually bigger batteries have more cranking power, I have a 20APH battery in my old 85. Works good for the hot start issue.......
