calperin Posted July 16, 2012 #1 Posted July 16, 2012 Did somebody had the problem I have right now. I cannot close the cover of the cassette receptacle. Any suggestions?
spke Posted July 16, 2012 #2 Posted July 16, 2012 By "cannot close" assume you mean it won't stay closed? Mine did that when I bought my RSV from the PO. I took the whole thing(the entire cassette housing from inside the fairing) out and cleaned and lubricated the mechanism. Originally I thought I was missing the spring on one side but seem to have decided it only has 1 spring, on the left side IIRC. Try some wd-40 in and around where the spring lives and see if that helps. sp!ke Did somebody had the problem I have right now. I cannot close the cover of the cassette receptacle. Any suggestions?
starrider60 Posted July 16, 2012 #3 Posted July 16, 2012 HAD THE SAME ISSUE. POSTED MY PROBLEM AND GOT AN IMMEDIATE REPLY. TOLD ME TO SPRAY SOME LUBRICANT ON EACH SIDE. IT WORKED. NO MORE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE BEST BUNCH OF FOLKS. BEST $12 I EVER SPENT.
calperin Posted July 16, 2012 Author #4 Posted July 16, 2012 I'll do the WD-40. And about the $12, NO DOUBT ABOUT THIS.... Thanks to both....
Dragonslayer Posted July 17, 2012 #6 Posted July 17, 2012 I had the same problem. Whenever I would close the door it would stay closed for about 10 seconds and then would slowy open, no matter how you tried to close it. I gave up and lived with the open door. That bothered me when it rained. Weeks later i tried to close it again and it stayed closed.... I don't know why.
calperin Posted July 17, 2012 Author #7 Posted July 17, 2012 Rain watter. I'm sure it rust the spring and now it don't move any more.... Any way, FYI thanks to all as ALLWAYS WD-40 if Moves or Tape if Doesn't makes the miracle.... It is close now. And I can open it. YOUHOOOOOOOOOOO
Brake Pad Posted July 17, 2012 #8 Posted July 17, 2012 is that what that is? I never opened mine. ( I don't own cassettes, so I never opened it)
calperin Posted July 17, 2012 Author #9 Posted July 17, 2012 Yes, Some people remove that and put tachs, amp and oil pressure gauges on it. IMHO with the speedometer looking as a the ones of the 50's car, why not... At least the auxiliary input is there, and more usefull than the cassettes... :cool10::cool10:
Condor Posted July 17, 2012 #10 Posted July 17, 2012 I have the same problem....sorta. The latch on the right side won't catch. It does stay closed but a little caddy-wompass....
