Comparing the Sylvania Silver Star Ultra to HID
wes0778 replied to Dave77459's topic in Watering Hole
I notice that there is a disclaimer at the bottom of this ad that says this bulb is not intended for highway use. Just curious, has anybody here ever been stopped and the DOT approval verified for any lighting? -

The Cliff Notes version is the thermostat maintains the MINIMUM engine temp and provides enough restriction, when fully open, so the coolant stays in the radiator long enough to loose enough heat to be able to properly cool the engine. Not sure about the Yamaha radiators, but the cooling systems I have worked on for 33+ years expect the radiator to change the temperature (inlet to outlet) of the coolant in a range of 12 to 15 degrees. If the "drop" is much less than 12 (closer to 0) there is usually said to be a capacity problem. (radiator is too small or externally plugged) if the "drop" is much more than 15 (Further from 0) there is usually a Flow problem. (the radiator is internally plugged, water pump not pumping sufficient flow, or thermostat not opening.)

Try Pinwall's FleaBay store if you wanna keep the OEM style. I went to Flying J and replaced both antennas, mounts, connectors and all for a little over $100.00US

Since I don't have a tach, I just guessed at "Super Slab RPM", on the RSV, and did the sync. Now it is off at idle, but is smoother at road speed, than when I did the sync at idle. I need to try this procedure on the Tour Classic. Kbran and Squidley got it absolutely perfect at idle, at MD. Now there is a definite vibration at highway speed.

1st thing I would do is put everything back like it was when it worked and see if it works again. If it does, think about the saying; "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!!".

If Ra-di-dio Shak can't help you, check with your local Motorola 2-way shop. Larson makes a base loaded "NMO mount" antenna. You'll have to specify the 27MHz coil. I think you can get the coil in grey or black.

Would you have expected anything different from the inmates in this asylum??? :crackup::crackup::crackup:

You think the RSV is HOT, have you ridden any of the large air cooled v-twins, lately???

HUH????????????????????

If that is the case, it helps keep the radiator COMPLETELY full. When the coolant heats up and expands the "extra" flows to the recovery bottle. When the engine is shut down and cools off, the coolant contracts back into the radiator, from the bottle.

You wanna watch an insurance company adjuster (not an independent) squirm, tell him the word "totaled" is not gonna enter into the conversation. Tell him that you are expecting your truck back in the same condition that it was in before HIS client hit you! No better, no worse, but at least in the SAME condition. Still probably won't get the truck fixed, but MAY get you a better settlement! Oh and BTW, where is my rental truck until this is settled???????????? (Since you have a business to run......)

Just a suggestion, but riders in that area/county should be on the phone, or send letters or email, to the local prosecutor demanding the driver be charged as mentioned above!!!

As I understand it, any and all up to, but not including, DOT5 are compatible/mixable. DOT5 is a special "breed" apart. The DOT4 has higher temperature limits.
