GLWS!  That bike is a steal. The Traxxion/Penske suspension is a major addition.  I have the Traxxion/Ohlin upgrade and it really took the bike to another level. A MC Cruise cruise control and that bike wouldn't lack for anything. Best of luck, Paul

First, let me offer my condolences for your wrecked baby.  Glad you are still around to be parting it out. Sure would be interested in the fuel tank, but I'm not anywhere near NY and don't see being able to make it up that way any time soon.  It would be great to find one that I didn't have to...

Rats! I'll still keep my eyes peeled. Are the MCEs the ones you would like?

I have been saying that I would figure out how to post pictures here, so I guess now is where the rubber meets the road. I know there are great instructions here somewhere. I'll find them and get it handled and get you a picture, Gary. I did read several posts about the possibility of fixing...

This may be a bone head question, but forgive my Gen 2 not knowing self. Are the '18s the same as the '13s? I know they changed things, but don't know if it affects the mounting locations. Reason I ask is that I found some MCE canyon cages for a '13 at K&G Cycles that say they have them in...

Howdy, Had a little get-off (actually a couple) (oh, alright...a few) during the IBR whilst traveling some of the roads less traveled. Nothing too serious other than my pride and some bruised ribs where I landed on, of all things, my personal rescue beacon. Go figure. The outer lid on my...

If it wasn't dreaded before, it is now. Gotta go check my vacuum lines now.

Thank you. Seems like forever to me too. Look forward to seeing you on the road.

What did your '06 do that made you lose confidence in it?

I hope so. Everything seems great now, but something happens to you when you have to haul your bike home in a uhaul. There's going to be that little niggling doubt that will just be there until it isn't. I'm really glad it happened when it did because if it hadn't, it could have happened in...

Wanted to post an update and take another opportunity to thank all who offered suggestions and help. Got home from the IBA Pizza Party in Jacksonville, FL yesterday. A little over 3700 miles in 3 and a half days of riding and no problems. Bike was flawless, just like it's supposed to be...

Thanks Mark and Ross. Ross, if you knew how infamous I am for asking questions no one has ever asked or for being plagued by things that have never been seen, you would not be surprised at all. Checked everything again and all seems to be well. I feel optimistic. Putting everything back...

Thanks Dave. I went ahead and plugged it back in and found out exactly what you described. I'm going to go ahead and leave it on. Seems like the fact that so many people use them should have been answer enough without my asking it. Just laziness on my part. That, and being exhausted over...

SUCCESS! The ECU appears to have been the culprit. Interestingly, as soon as I plugged it in, the code cleared. Didn't have to start and run it as I had expected. Fuel tank on and the fuel pump pressurized like it was supposed to and vroom. That wonderful, delightful noise that is a happy...

Had to laugh at this. Based on my obvious ineptitude, this is a valid point. For the record, I had figured this one out. Thank you.

I have what is probably a really stupid question, but I looked all over for the answer so as not to expose my retardedness any more than I already have and couldn't find one. The bike WILL run with all the tupperware off, right? I've never tried to start it with the plastic off and the FSM...

Thanks guys. I actually found a new old stock ECU just over in Austin on EBAY. I was looking at one for $220 and sent a question to the seller. While I was waiting for an answer, I found another one just like it in Austin for $107. I thought it was the same place, but it wasn't. Went ahead...

Okay, I'm back. I can hear the groans. Have a good friend who is a magician with wiring. He came over today to see if he could help me make some sense of this and we have both conceded that it is probably the ECU. Wanted to run this by you all to see if there was anything else I might need...

As anyone can plainly see, electrical problems are not my strong suit. The theory makes all the sense in the world, but when I get down to it, it is an otherworldly education. Working my way through the trouble shooting advice in the FSM. Learning how and which wires to test and for what...
