Cougar

The last month or so I have noticed a slight front end shake/vib at 70 mph. Yes, I checked the tree for the proper adjustments and all was good there. Then I got to thinking my tire was never high speed balanced from what I found out at the Honda dealer that I took I to. So anyways I removed the tire and took the Ride-On out of it, put the tire back on and this is my results on how much the weights are. would this cause this kind of problem I am having? Notice the wheel weights to the left. I have found a shop that does high speed balance as well. I also ordered a Marc Parnes wheel balancer. boy is this a nice balancer very high grade stuff he uses in his product. much better then the bent rod harbor fright ones I was looking at. ANYWAYS! Take a look at these photos and tell me if this would cause the sight vib. at 70 mph . oh the wheel bearings are good as well. [ATTACH]84299[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]84300[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]84301[/ATTACH]

HMS rear diff ratio is 3.27

I had mine in the rain sat and sun, it did great

Use alcohol to rejuvenate the rain x effect, then windex for cleaning ,and you will be fine

Don, It's about an extra 12 a month to have a $50 ded as well. maybe less My Wife thanks you :-) wife has worked for them about 15 years now. With Geico you can also not make a payment during the winter months and you bike will be fully insured. (you just cant ride it)

Well Well Well-- LOOKY there, that is my Tinted Shield on there site now cool !

Not sure about the Tint scratching more? never heard that. I do have the TINT and no scratches yet :-).. However it is much darker then the Clearview. so keep that in mind. so far mine is scratch free and I am loving it. the cleaning is so much better when only using Windex now. I also am trying out the F4 Cleaning product and it restores the RainX feature that the windshield has. Good luck on what you decide. If you can go to F4 I would look at both to see if the TINT will be OK for you. Jeff

You already know how I feel

Strieght cut gears is making the sound.

This is a (F) basket marking... so you know what to look for. [ATTACH]84160[/ATTACH]

-I also have a 2000. -I also have change out the basket with different letters over the years. (5 times) -Changing to an (I)basket will move the (whine) to different rpm level. -I went back to a Dino oil and that helps, synthetic will make the (whine) louder. -If you install a TAC on your bike and always keep the RPM's above 3K rpm there will be no whine with a (I) basket. -Most likely with the 2000 RSV you have a (F) basket installed. Feel free to contact me if you want to talk more about this, I have been dealing with this for 7 years now. but it grows on you

YES, Solder those into those clips, those clips don't work very well. watch your heat as not to melt the conector. remove the plastic coating that goes into the V clips for a better solder joint. Good Luck ! Also check all your grounds on the trailer as well. lots of times that is the problem. Jeff

Guess It is just me after 240 views.

Why does the posted photos that folks post only show up as a black box with a spinning thing like its trying to load. then I always have to close the box then the 2nd time I click them they open just fine This happens on my Phone. my "NEW" desktop, my IPAD and Laptop. This has been going on for about a year now for me. Just wondering how many others? Thanks, Jeff

why would it be safer

I always use 12 in the front .

It was meaning like you said. just using your hand to turn the tire and balance it. thanks This must be something else why I am having the small shaking issue.

OK I have this Brand new Mich2 on the front of the trike Its also has a bottle of ride-on in it, been having no problems with that stuff for years, so I called the guy at the shop and asked them what speed do they balance at. he says they just turn the tire by hand. Are there places that balance tires like the would a car tire? My Issue is when I hit just about 70 mph the front end shakes a little not a huge amount but I can feel it. Any suggestions? I am almost sure but I should check the fork bolt I guess. otherwise it rides great until I hit the 70 mph mark. Thanks, Jeff Oh, the Tire is a rear same size front mounted backwards.

I did that same thing from harbor but found it way to wobbly to make it work right. be safe with that thing. I now have a brand new one sitting in my shed. maybe I can use it in y truck :-)

Had a bolt drop into that place one year and it wore a hole right through the rad after about a year of being in there. however I did find that bolt

OK I was reading it wrong sorry, maybe I still am.. thought you were plugging into the round 12 volt on the dash, my bad. well yes the part from the battery with the fuse that you plug your stuff into will have power all the time since it connects direct to the battery. maybe I am still not understanding Just wondering -- Why did you cut the wire from the socket or gear ?

Two more killed in Cedar Rapids Iowa on Saturday. The car decided it was going to turn in front of them. not wearing helmets.
