    That is the same thing wrong with my case, but I'll still call to see what they have.

    Pinwall had one for $199.00 but no bids. I'll try calling them to see if they still have it. The insides of mine work, but the case is broken. Is the crack in yours "seal-able"? If so maybe we could work a deal to get both fixed.

    A fine young man and co-worker bought WAY too much motorcycle as his 1st ever street bike. I think it was a 1000+cc crotch rocket. He had it 2-3 days before, it was reported, he lost it because of gravel on the road and he hit a light pole. Obituary from the Jackson, MS newspaper Adam Johnson, 22, passed away Friday, April 2, 2010 at University Medical Center in Jackson from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident. Visitation will be 4-8pm today at Harmony Baptist Church. Services will be 11am Monday, April 5, 2010 at Harmony Baptist Church with burial in Harmony Cemetery. Adam was born in Jackson and lived all of his life in Crystal Springs where he was a faithful member of Harmony Baptist Church where he was also saved at the age of 9. After graduating from Union Academy, he got a degree in heavy equipment dealer service technology from South Georgia Technical College. Adam was the first Puckett Equipment employee to graduate with this degree. He married his first love, Kayla Pino Johnson July 25, 2009. Adam loved life and lived it to the fullest and always spoke words of encouragement to those around him. He enjoyed spending time with his family and extended family. He loved working in his shop, mud racing, fishing, four wheeler riding and most of all, spending time alone with his wife. He loved his work with Puckett Machinery as a heavy equipment dealer service technician with whom he had worked and attended school for the past 5 years. Adam was preceded in death by his maternal grandfathers, Walter Barlow, Sr. and his paternal grandfather, J. W. Johnson. He is survived by his wife, Kayla Pino Johnson; parents, Eddie and Sue Johnson of Crystal Springs; brother, Alex Johnson of Crystal Springs; maternal grandparents, Peggy and Paul Hunter of Crystal Springs; paternal grandparents, Doris and Seyburn Ball of Crystal Springs.

    Personal preference is that the passing light are on anytime the headlight is on (high beam or low beam).

    When you say "the fuse" was blown, which one specifically? Have you checked to be sure you have not pinched any wires when you assembled the passing lights? You may have a direct short to ground, which would certainly blow any fuses. Without a wiring diagram, off hand, I don't know what the green wire is. Using a volt meter or test light, is there power to the green wire when the ignition is on an no power when the ignition is off? If I were going to not use a relay, I think I would still look for the wire that supplies power to the dimmer switch, as a power source for the passing lights.

    Better yet if you don't need the CB, turn it off.

    If you do head for Kenny's lemme know I wanna see how it's done...

    Mine is missing as well, but the navigator doesn't have a headset, so I haven't worried about it yet. But, I am wondering how it mounts, as all I see is a small threaded hole in the switch.

    It's when you get back on the "other" (2-wheeled) bike and forget to put your feet down that you get in trouble... :yikes:

    Posted this on another thread, but may ba applicable here; Just curious how long, time wise, an Avon should last? I'm not sure at what mileage the PO put the Avon on the front of my '99 RSV, but the date code is 0906. The bike had 16,700 miles on it when I got it in September and has just shy of 22,000 miles on it now. When I got it I had to replace the rear tire, which also was an Avon, but it was slick. I inspected the front tire carefully when I saw cracking mentioned, some time ago, and found no cracks. Yesterday I made a quick check of the front tire and found at least one crack, which seems a little deeper than a cosmetic imperfection. Tread wise, the tire looks to have a good many miles left in it, but I don't have a tread gauge, nor do I know the depth of a new tire. I do have, thanks to one of our members, a 404 tire off of an '08 RSMV with very few miles on it, so I guess I'll be putting it on shortly. I had a blow out on a front tire many years ago and don't wanna do that again!!! Did I see it mentioned here that Avon warrants their tires for 5 years? I wonder if I have a shot at some help?

    Brings to mind the supposed ad about a dog; "great dog, eats anything, loves kids..."

    '09 = Warranty, does it not???

    He seems immune to a shock collar. but I think they are having second thoughts...

    Buddy needs a good home. He is three and needs a backyard to run in. He is great with kids and is a lap dog too. My daughter took him in after someone dumped him out in our neighborhood as a scrawney 10lb puppy. My daughter, also seen in the picture, was convinced the "poor little thing" would not get very big. I looked at his paws at the time and laughed!!! He really is a great dog, just spoiled and scared of thunder. Since they don't have a fenced yard, he has outgrown them, as a house dog, especially with the new grand baby.

    What he was saying is the LOAD of the passing lights will not go through the ignition switch. That load will go through the relay. Only the relay control circuit load will go through the ignition switch. The relay control coil draws MUCH less amperage than the passing light bulbs. I personally would not tap the "lighter" plug, as it is powered, at least on my RSV, in the ACC position as well as the RUN position. Where I chose to get the control voltage is from the power supply wire to the dimmer switch. (In fact I even put a relay in the headlight circuit, so now even the headlight LOAD does not go through the ignition switch. But That may cloud your issue.) The dimmer switch is only powered when the ignition switch is in the RUN position. Thus I can play the radio, in the ACC position, without any lights being on, as they would be if the control power was picked up from the "lighter" plug wire.

    Yup, our 7mo old grandson always seems to have more food ON the baby than IN the baby!!! Shown here wearing his carrots:p

    My:2cents: The wire I tapped to go to the #86 terminal of the relay is the common power wire to the dimmer switch.
