    fuel light question for '85 owners

    Hi all you '85 owners, I'm wondering if you all could check this small thing for me. I read everywhere that when you start the bike, the fuel and oil light should come on and go off again. Well on my bike only the oil light seems to do that. I've been reading and troubleshooting like crazy...

    Oil light timing?

    Hey guys! So whenever I'm going up a hill and accellerate from 2-3k, my oil light comes on at around 4500 - 5000 rpm. Is this normal? I mean if I just steadily go up it rarely comes on, it seems to be triggered by acceleration If I'm going downhill I can get to 6500 before it comes on, or...

    Best integrated tail light, opinions welcome.

    I'm looking at the integrated rear tail light and fender eliminator kit currently being offered by PlanetVmax (UFO), does anyone have any opinions as to what they think might be better or worse?

    Oil light on with full oil

    Noticed the oil level light come on as I was coming home today, pulled over to take a look at the sight glass as it was within range. Continued home, filled oil to the top mark and the light is still on. Any ideas other than a bad sensor?

    Shift Light Options

    I've been checking into stand-alone shift lights. I don't like where the V-Max tach is located. It's hard to find a small tach with a shift light to attach near the speedo. But I found this on Ebay...

    Need Shift Light Recomendations For My Mustang

    I've got a 2005 Mustang, 4.6, V8 that's going up in Horse Power Weekly. It's as hard to read the tach in it as the Vmax is because the tach's on the left side and positioned low. My left arm is always in the way. So, I'm looking at options and there's a lot of experience on this forum. Also what...

    At stop light, leave in first or shift to neutral ?

    I normally shift to neutral when I come to a stop light and I know I'll be sitting at the light for a few minutes but I'm wondering if this is the best practice. So my question is what is best for the bike in terms of clutch/transmission wear and tear or for general safety ? Thanks in advance...

    Low fuel light question...

    Yesterday, I left work with 109 miles on the trip odometer; usually at around 115 to 118 miles the low fuel light would normally kick on. Well it didn't, so I rode on knowing that I should be able to make it into town at about 120 or 125. Well I pull to the gas station with 129 on the clock and...
