It sounds like you may need to replace the TPS again. Mine did the same thing--stumbling just off idle from a full stop with no other symptoms-- when two separate TPS's failed on me within two years.

That's way too much for an insole. If the shoe fits, that much insole will cause your instep to be crushed by the upper and not allow your heel to stay in place at the heel counter. The end result is likely to be bruising and blisters with little gain in height, You're better off with re-soling.

Would those be the friends from Providence?

The "game" you're describing can't be played by firms in market economies, only by firms in socialist economies against those in market economies because the firms are supported by government funding. This is why China has had the ability to dump product at or below cost in the past to drive out...

It seems to me that the sound being described is more of a grinding gears sound than the typical clunk into first. I'd speculate that the clutch didn't properly disengage for whatever reason. I wouldn't worry about it unless it continues happening.

I think people, like the author, are reading too much into this. No, the EPA doesn't like tuners but this isn't about the tuners themselves. If it were, they would have gone after the largest manufacturer of tuners. This is about HD deliberately violating its agreement to meet EPA standards to...

My '03 was set at 5,8,-5,3.

I use a small piece of wood and a rubber mallet. If I tap on it at a few points it dislodges without much effort.

The FJ-09 might be a good compromise.

I don't think the question is about 48 miles, it's about a perceived violation of trust. If you're asking what the fair compensation is for 48 miles, they've likely exceeded that dollar amount by filling the tank. If we're talking about a violation of trust where a tech took your bike for a joy...

I'd ask about maintenance records, any known issues, if scheduled services were done, etc. All of the standard questions for used vehicles. It certainly appears worth checking out.

Crampbuster. Best $6 I ever spent.

Cycle Gear doesn't have tech's, sales people do the mounting and balancing. The balancer they use will show 0.0 weight to be added if it needs less than 1/4 oz. If it's out of balance the three most likely causes are: 1) They forgot to balance it. This does happen sometimes since they are...

Geez, make a right turn once in a while.

Start simple, try a new battery. I too went the lithium route last year and it was a big turd.

I think it has more to do with load rather than vibration since it's RPM related. Mine went bad a couple of years ago and the diagnostic didn't show anything out of the ordinary. It certainly sounds like a TPS issue. Was it replaced under recall?

You can can light your bike up like a Christmas Holiday tree, add straight pipes, wear hi viz that glows like the sun and if they're not going to see you, they're still not going to see you. We've created a society where people have become trained to be highly focused on everything they do and...

I picked up some Speed Metal ones at Cycle Gear. They work for my stock shield, but they're not quite long enough for the thicker Vstream.

Well now that's just bizarre, I see them when I put in the search but not when I was searching the sites. Cool, Puig makes some nice shields.

C'mon Fred, everybody knows Massholes don't merge onto the highway, we drag race traffic that has the right of way and play chicken until somebody gives way. Hell, we don't even bother to check if somebody's coming, we're just too important to have to do that. Turn signals? What are those? Oh...
