At idle with the bike warmed up if you pull the choke lever it should kill the bike...or at least make it idle real crappy. First thing is to...
Ha Ha...my thoughts exactly Rangerscott. Guess working on bikes full time for 25 years doesn't qualify... I'm a little disappointed though...I...
You'll want at least four of those little slide pin stoppers otherwise you'll have to remove and install the cams on each bank four times to...
You WILL want ALL tools associated with disabling the Vtech lifters in order to inspect valve clearance. No improvising on this one. The right...
Here's what I think...if you love bikes the way it sounds (and as most of us on this forum do)...get the one you want...especially since the one...
I tend to agree with eddie, assuming it's not a charging system problem. I've seen lots and lots of starters act this very way...fine when bike...

Hey Lgn001... It's pretty normal to see carbon/oil residue on spark plug threads. I wouldn't worry about it if all else seems in place. If...
Yes!! it will, that is if the button is your problem. Your starter button actually operates two separate switches. They may have a common power...
If you have a wiring diagram, or a service manual. You could find which wires feed power to and from the switch, cut your switch harness open and...
Aside from the basic headlight fuse and bulb...I would look at the starter button and the dimmer switch. Try activating those switches many times...
An open connection won't blow your main fuse. You've got a dead short. Your positive lead from the battery is touching a ground somewhere on the...
I agree with you SLOVFR...check the battery connections, the big cables...the ground...and the main fuse, if the bike is stone dead lickety split....
Know what you mean. I enjoy doing similar myself on occasion. I usually look for projects where the labor costs are high (thinkin' I can handle...
