    Thanks for the help guys.  I got in touch with MCcruise and we traced it down to a loose ground.

    MC CRUISE

    I have an MC CRUISE installed on an 07.  The problem is that after a battery change the indicator light on the cruise control just flashes between red & green and will not engage.  Anyone else have this problem?

    overflow tank

    Thanks for all the input guys. I have since replaced the tank ($20 part) with a new one. I will be keeping an eye on the tank in the future. I do a lot of stop-and-go riding commuting to work daily. The bike will almost daily get hot enough to cycle on the fans, so heat may be an added...

    overflow tank

    About a week ago I drained & refilled the radiator with Prestone 50/50. Now I see cracks all over the overflow tank. After 40k miles the tank has never lost a drop, but now I can see coolant fizzing out of these cracks after it comes up to temp. Obviously I will need to replace the tank, but do...

    AE Long-term Experiences

    The "AE" model is a great machine no doubt, however it is not without fault. I miss the ability to coast most of all. Getting the bike into neutral without power is quite the pain. The computer slips the clutch a bit too much in first gear when starting from a stop, but doesn't seem to wear...

    Ground spider issue? maybe?

    Lifter tap

    Just finished about 150 mile ride in 100 temps and never heard the "tapping". However I could make the same ride tomorrow and it would do it every time I got slow enough to hear it. Does this sound like to you guys that it could still be the CCT?
