  1. WELL, I SAY WE NEED TO RUN OVER TO A TRUCK STOP AND GET THE BIKE ON A CAT SCALE,AND SEE WHAT THE WEIGHT IS, SHOULD BEABLE TO PUT THE FRONT WHEEL IN ONE PAD OF THE SCALE AND THE REAR ON THE OTHER PAD AND SEE WHAT THE WEIGHT IS PER AXLE.
  2. NO SPARK PLUGS? UNLESS ITS A DIESEL ITS GOT SPARK PLUGS,IM PREATY SURE ITS THE SAME ENGINE I HAD IN MY DURANGO AND THEY HAVE A COIL PACK ON TOP OF EACH SPARK PLUG. 4.7 V-8 GOOD ENGINE JUST LOVES GAS. I NEVER SEEN ANY BIG CHANGES ON A GAS ENGINE FROM POWER CHIPS, BUT THEY MAKE BIG POWER FOR DIESEL ENGINES.
  3. YOUR GONNA BE OVER LOADED ON THE REAR TIRE BY ALOT. I RUN BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR TIRE BETWEEN 36 TO 40 PSI. IF I RUN ANY LOWER THAN THAT, TIRES SOUND LIKE A DUMP TRUCK IS COMING DOWN THE ROAD,AND REAR TIRE GETS KINDA HOT. MY PROBLEM IS TOO MUCH CARGO AROUND THE BELT AND THEN THE WIFE GETS ON. I THINKS IS CALLED BIKE ABUSE!:rotf:
  4. MY OLD 93 HAS OVER A 100,000 MILES ON IT NOW AND I REPLACED THE FRONT FORK SPRINGS LAST SPRING,SO THIS WINTER I THOUGHT I WOULD WORK ON THE REAR SUSPENSION,SO I GOT A REAR LINKAGE ARM FROM EBAY AND IM GOING TO REPLACE THE BUSHINGS, AND IM THINKING ABOUT REPLACING THE REAR SHOCK WITH A NEW Progressive Suspension 420 Series Shocks, Aluminum. HAS ANYONE ON HERE TRYED ONE OF THESE SHOCKS BEFORE. THEY ARE KINDA HIGH PRICE AND WOULD LIKE SOME INPUT BEFORE I GET ONE,THANKS
  5. THAT WAS COOL,I PUT THE WIFE'S NAME IN FIRST.:rotf::rotf:
  6. THATS HOW IT WORKS IN MY HOUSE TRAILER,TRY THIS LINK,MIGHT GIVE YA A BETER UNDER STANDING OF WHAT YOU DEALING WITH. http://home.howstuffworks.com/question117.htm
  7. I WOULD SAY THEY DIED FROM LACK OF OXGEN, A OPEN FLAME HEATER IN A SMALL ROOM WILL TAKE AND BURN UP ALL THE OXGEN PREATY FAST DEPENDING ON HOW TIGHT THE ROOM IS SEALED.IM ALSO A DIESEL MECHANIC AND HAVE BEEN AROUND DIESEL SMOKE FOR 20 YEARS NOW AND IM NOT DEAD YET, JUST LACKING SOME BRAIN CELLS.
  8. CHECK THIS LINK OUT, LOOKS LIKE THIS GUY HAS THE STUFF TO DO IT. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CUSTOM-CHROME-LETTERING-EMBLEM-BADGE-LETTERS-NUMBERS_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ50447QQihZ017QQitemZ270197532886QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW
  9. I have two friends who i do alot of riding with,one has a 2001 road king and the other has a 2003 kawasaki voager.at a yellow light i can stop with no problems, both of them are in the middle of the intersection smoking their rear tire off tring to stop. as far as im concerned linked brakes are the way to go.If some day i ever advance to a 2nd gen,i will link the brakes.
  10. get Ahold Of Leadwolf 56 Hes Got 3 Front Fenders In Stock,just Talk To Him The Other Day About Them.
  11. YEA, WHAT DID HAPPEN TO CINDI AND BINKY ? ENQUIRING MINES WANT TO KNOW
  12. THIS HAPPEN TO MY 93 A YEAR AGO,I JUST TOOK OFF THE LID ON THE MASTER AND OPEN THE BLEEDER,AND RAN A PINT OF NEW VALVOLINE SYNTHETIC FLUID THOUGH IT AND MY CLUTCH HAS WORK GOOD EVER SINCE. I JUST LET IT GRAVITY BLEED, JUST DONT LET THE TANK GO DRY AND YOU WILL BE OK.
  13. Hey Man Just Take The End Loose Down By The Wheel And Pull Out The Center Part Of The Cable You Dont Have To Remove The Jacket.
  14. My 93 Has Had A Noise Coming From The Starter Clutch For Some Time Now But Its Getting Worse, Only On Start Up And When The Engine Is Hot It Will Really Make Some Noise. If I Order #7 In The Picture Below , Will That Give Me Everthing I Need To Fix The Problem ?. I Know I Will Need A Cover Gasket. Thanks
  15. My 93 Dont Have The Rubber Shock Covers,i Think Its A Add On. When I Got My Progressive Spring I Could Have Got The Shock Protectors As Well. I Dont Really Like The Look Of Them Rubber Covers.
  16. I WAS HAVING A E-4 CODE COMING ON MINE ALSO,IM GLAD YOU POSTED THIS THREAD,SO TODAY I CHECK OUT WHAT FREEBIRD HAD POSTED AND WHEN I TOOK MINE APART I FOUND THE SAME THING THAT WAS IN THE PICTURE,I HAD 3 CRACK SOUDER JOINTS.RESOUDERED AND FIX THE PROBLEM. NOT REAL HARD TO DO EITHER. THANKS!!! :)
  17. I Put Them In My 93 And Like Them Alot,made The Bike Feel And Handle Better.makes The Engine And Frame One,you Get A Little More Vibration From The Handle Bars And In The Foot Pegs But It Is Well Worth It.i Think They Cost Me Around 70 Bucks.and I Think I Got Them From Buckeye Performance,they Are Not Alot Of Fun To Install,the One On The Left Rear I Still Need To Change Out Over The Winter,looks Like The Engine Has To Be Preaty Loose To Get It In.
  18. I Would Say You Looking In The Right Direction,sounds Like A Float Is Stuck,you Can Try Taping On Carb Bowls And See If It Stops,but This Will Just Prolong The Problem It Wont Go Away That Easy I Bet.
  19. OK I DID IT, HAD TO REMOVE LEFT SIDE COVER AND TAKE OFF THE LID FOR THE CLUTCH RESVOIR REMOVED THE BLEEDER,PUT MY FINGER OVER THE HOLE AND PULLED IN ON THE CLUTCH HANDLE TILL IT STOPED.LET BACK OFF OF THE HANDLE SLOW WHILE HOLDING FINGER OVER HOLE TIGHT SO NOT TO LET ANY AIR IN SYSTEM.DID THIS ABOUT FIVE TIMES HAD TO REFILL RESVOIR,AND IT BEGAN TO GRAVITY BLEED ON ITS OWN.JUST KEEP FILLING IT BACK UP UNTIL NEW FLUID STARTED FLOWING.USED A Q-TIP AND WIPED OUT ALL OF THE NASTY STUFF ON THE BOTTOM OF THE RESVOIR. SO FAR THE CLUTCH IS BACK TO NORMAL! I USED A WHOLE PINT BOTTLE OF DOT 4 FLUID.
  20. The fluid is in bad shape from and i was tring to wait untill winter to do this,im scared i might need to rebuild the cylinder or the clutch cylinder if i mess with the fluid change.
  21. I Let My 93 Venture Sit For A Week And Went I Went To Get It Out The Clutch Lever Dont Feel Right,and Is Getting Harder To Get In And Out Of Gear.has Anyone Had Any Luck With Gravity Bleading? Or Should I Just Try To Pumping The Handle And Releasing The Bleader?
  22. Have You Been Using Armoral Or Tire Black. i Think That Stuff Causes Cracks In The Tires Like That,i Would Get A New Tire ,you Only Got 2 So They Had Better Be Good Ones.
