Re: How many of you guys bought the temp switch rather than install a manual fan swit
I bought the Borg Warner switch (88 Nissan Sentra 1.8L) and love it. My temp gauge seemed to almost get to the red by the time the fan switched on, and at that point the bike ran like crap.
With the new...
I had some ticking in the valve train area that went away after I adjusted the valves. I was amazed how much quieter the engine got after adjusting them. If you have around or over 25,000 miles it would be due anyways.
I'd be interested to see what they do for the bike once he turns into the 'Ghost Rider'. Will it be a CG Gen 2 with flames or will they go back to the chopper look they used in the first movie? Hopefully they stay with the Gen2 look.
Typical Harley rider response to comments like this:
Yeah, well my 124 cu. in. S&S powered bad boy puts down 120hp. Yeah, put that in your pipe and smoke it! Low power H-D my ass! I can even get 5k between rebuilds! I beat Hayabusa's and jet bikes all day long!
Then you realize that's...
Eh, if you read the article the parts will be made here in the US and the bikes will be assembled in India, for the Indian market. Still guy with a dot on his head (where you shoot them my dad would say) gets the job that would normally be done by Joe Smith here in the US.
My Jap emblemed...
Well I heard about the Vyper and subsequent comments from Ducati that they were shelving the idea of a 'muscle cruiser'. But look what they are showing off this week in Milan...:clapping:

I must have been installing the pressure plate wrong. Came home today and got it to work on my first reassembly. :bang head::confused2:
Thanks for the help guys.
I must be installing the pressure plate wrong. I've noticed when everything is put together the pressure plate is not fitting snuggly against the clutch boss. There is one 'hole' in the clutch boss and a 'nipple' sticking out of the pressure plate. This is what I am lining up and do not see any...
Well Im at a loss now. I removed the middle gear cover and removed the slave cylinder from its mount (I didn't see a way to 'remove' it entirely w/o removing the alt cover). The piston was seated and seemed to move freely back and forth. I pushed the main pushrod and smaller pushrod back and...
Yeah, after e-mailing Maleko89 back and forth I think that the slave cylinder piston may be out to far and locked up. I'm going to remove the slave cylinder this week and see if the piston is out and if I can get it to work. I'll post on my findings.
The picture is from Lvlhead's V-Max site, not mine. My pushrod is sticking out quite a bit and will not go in to where it would be flush against the nut. I cracked the bleeder and it still would not bulge. I noticed that this pushrod moves out a little when putting pressure on the lever though...
What ball are you referring to?
Something else, pushrod number 2 (per Clymer), (the round thing in the middle of the clutch in the picture) and has a small ball bearing behind it, is sticking out a little (more than what is pictured below) and won't push back in?
Hey all.
I installed the PCW HD spring kit today with a friend. Followed the instructions to a tee, reassembled it and now my clutch lever wont pull in at all. disassembled everything, checked it against my Clymer manual and still nothing.
Even with the pressure plate and spring removed...
