    rear brake switch

    I've found my rear brake switch is not returning to the off positon after the brakes are released. If I jiggle it, they blink off temporarily but get stuck after the next application. Is this a repairable part, or should I just order a new switch? Was thinking of spraying contact cleaner or...

    How To: Recondition the Ignition Switch

    So, the steps to do this have been living in a thread for a couple months now, but buried deep under a lot of posts. They have been referenced once to aid another member, but only because the notifier (alorio1) had been following the thread and knew where to go. Otherwise, I am not sure...

    How To: Recondition the Electrical Components of the Throttle-side Switch Housing Pod

    So the inspiration behind this write-up comes from an incident in which I found myself pushing my bike a half-mile to the gas station because my Reserve Switch could not make the necessary connection that re-energizes the fuel pump relay, essentially disconnecting the fuel pump from the battery...

    Iginition Switch Re-key

    Ignition Switch Re-key So my stock ignition switch expired the other day . The service manual didn't mention at all if whether or not it is repairable, saying to replace it with a new one, so that I did. If it is repairable, oh well. But my real question is this: Call me what you will...

    Fuel reserve switch

    Im new to this, so might sound quite dim. the fuel light came on so i moved the fuel reserve switch to on but 2 hundred yards later the bike ran out of petrol, could it be a relay or something else. The switch on the handlebars is nice and clean with no corrosion & the fuel light did come on?

    How many of you guys bought the temp switch rather than install a manual fan switch?

    After doing a lot of research here, I went ahead and ordered the radiator fan switch kit from VMax Outlaw. Between that, new antifreeze and the water-wetter I hope to eliminate the overheating problem. It was 65 degrees today and within 2 long red lights, the temp was going to the red. I had to...

    fan switch not working automatically

    1 month ago i discovered the fan was not kicking in when the temp is raising near the red. As a temporary fix, I added a manual switch and then the fan is turning on. I recently change the temp sender unit with a stock one but the issue remains. The fan only kicks in with a manual override but...

    Fan Override Cooling Switch

    I need some advice about the purpose of an on & off override fan switch. I assume the stock operation automatically kicks on the fan when the motor reaches a curtain temperature to keep the engine in the appropriate cooling range. My question is how does adding this switch actually help in...

    Hey, Guys I'm looking for your thoughts of removing the thermo switch and completing the circuit with wire and some connectors. That is what I have done because my bike overheated Sunday.
