RSTD Exhaust tip rotation
Flyinfool replied to Charlie01's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Is it maybe a Torx screw.? If you are lucky an allen will grab it. Just a WAG here. -
Auxiliary brake light wiring
Flyinfool replied to DarkLeftArm's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I attached the diagram to my previous post, all of the parts are from anyplace like Radio shack. The shipping and the envelope is more expensive than the parts. -

You still need to go back and do the tests I explained, while it is misbehaving to determine witch direction to start looking. If it was a short it would blow a fuse instantly, so you can rule that out.

Is there a way to have attachments in a PM just like we Have in the forums? There have been a number of times that I wanted to sends pics back and forth in a PM but had to take the conversation to another site to have pics. At least this time I do not think the answer will be to use Google search......

There is one review on that site and he says he wished he had not done it, not enough light on the road. Do you want to look cool when parked or do you want to see where you are going at night? Now if you can get some removable lens covers to tint, then you could have the best of both worlds. Or just go back to a 1st gen so everyone is not looking at the front of the bike...... Sorry, someone had to do it.

Noooooooo........ You will let the magic blue smoke out of your meter. You must set VM to any range 12Vdc or HIGHER. I always start at the symptom. In this it means the lights that are not lighting. Check the two wires at the light. Connect your meter from the battery positive to each of the wires, one at a time, One of them should show 12V. Then connect your meter from battery negative to the other wire. it should show 12V. If either of these tests do not work then you at least know which side of the bulb the problem is on. Dumb question part, but it is required just because none mentioned it yet. Did you check to be sure the bulbs are not burned out?

So You are saying I need to pull the carbs and do a rebuild? Or can the float needles be replaced while on the bike? Do you have a kit for this? Floor is concrete, there are no drip marks or stains under the bike. I did have reduced gas mileage at the end of last year along with slightly harder starting and a slight miss. I was hoping that a new set of spark plugs and a sync would make it better. I do have a set of carb diaphragms just cuz I have no idea how old these are. I hate working on carbs. Too much smoke and mirrors going on with all of the different circuits.

OK, Where do you think the gas went?? I went out to the shed today to start getting the bike ready enough to ride to go and get the new tires mounted. After a winter of sitting in the dark and the cold in the shed all alone, it did not want to start. It turned over just fine. But no so much as a fart. Hmmmmmm Then looking at the dash I notice that there are no bars showing on the gas gauge. Now when I parked it for the winter I filled the tank to the top with fresh gas with some stabil and some seafoam in it. I even got the gas from way up nort so that it would not have alky in it. So I opened the tank filler and sure enough, completely empty. There is no sign of gas having been on the floor, and the oil level is normal. So I added a gallon of fresh gas and it started right up. Benn watching it and still no drips on the floor. I don't think it could have been the neighbors, the shed is locked, the tank is locked, and a jug of gas next to the bike is still full. Where do you suppose 5 gallons of gas could have run off to????

I'll be right there......

OK so I am about ready to spring to have ALL led lights on my 88 standard except for the headlight. I want to do the front and rear turn signals, running lights, brake, and all dash lights. I know that Superbrightleds carries them, as do others, but they have a boatload of different styles of 1157 light. and 194 lights. Can some one that has done this and is happy with their result let us/me know specifically which LED lights worked for everything. I can deal with the flasher and CMU issues. I just need the bulb info.

Of course, just look at the polit............ Oopie, I almost used the "P" word

My thought processes are above in blue. I guess that I just have a warped mind to follow the reasoning so quick. Now waiting for Mar 5 for the next set of clues. Maybe I can trade in the Rustang (After I play with it for a little while ) for a new Chevy P/U truck.

So which one gave you the most trouble? The only one I had a problem with was the one with the dominos. But then I kept getting interrupted by my boss.......

If the batteries are in parallel then you keep the same voltage and you do get more run time. With LiPos you are better off just getting a bigger pack than trying to make wire harnesses to hook them up in parallel.

Speedometer Bearing Grease Coupling Price.
Flyinfool replied to GolfVenture's topic in Watering Hole
I will also take one at that price. -
You are correct
