    well stopped for lunch in Lancaster mo. went to leave cars on both front and back. had to turn bars tight go forward and back got out of there. stopped at other side of lot. incline, got over center no arm strength to hold her up. two big fellas helped pic her up. boy did I feel stupid. 10 more feet ground was flat. may have to get a trike.
  11. well get up do the business take pills go outside think of something to do. going to have to get a parttime job as retirement package is low because of insurance for both of us eats a big chunk. but still glad I retired from gov work
  12. there is a capacitor to put in battery sensor wire to get rid of light. its in the forum prob in tec cant remember im thinking was green black wire. but find the article I could be wrong. I spent about three dollars on it.
  13. that top picture looks like carbon has been flattened. are the pistons red colored or is light red. red is to much alcohol in fuel or water separated mix. and does car idle a lot.
  14. before top dead center lol never proof read that. that would be a waste.

    well I think thermostat is sticking. added override switch to temp sensor. never made a big difference cools off all at once like stat opens. these bikes air lock in radiator. coolant is full oil full stat is only 2month old. rebuilt waterpump replaced most hoses.
  16. you could fill cylinder with seafoam btdc soften up carbon enough to break it down so will turn over. engine will burn it up after it starts. it may sound like a rod knocking when first started just don't hammer throttle. its worth a try. remember kiss [keep it super simple] don't do any more than you have to.

    wife and I rode down to see the Mississippi flood waters. when we got there heat gauge was almost in white turned off bike she was boiling water. turned switch back on no fan. we stayed there for about 15min then took long way home so I could run faster ie air flow. I know where the sensor wire is. cant remember is there a relay or just a fuse. the little bands that held relays on are long gone. any one know wire colors blue to sensor----- if I remember correct all stuff wore off relays no numbers. going to work on tomorrow afternoon. I cant hear fan run when bike on. what ya say.
  18. o boy I got mail. it do work. lol happy4th,be safe
  19. don't leave us hanging what was it. gremlins,trolls or did I do that:confused07:
  20. if there is one strand of wire still together. meter will read full voltage. use a fuse 5 to 10 amp ground one side, put the other to power of factory fuse on side after fuse if it pops fuse have good connections. just because meter says there is voltage don't mean there is
  21. when it wont turn over any more. the cylinder closest to tdc will have the chunk of whatever is causing the stoppage. that is where its contacting the head. if your not seeing any carbon on valves prob wont be carbon.
  22. regular unlead puts carbon on top of valves gasahall puts carbon on bottom of valves. if they mix to much alcohol plugs will have red tint to them and red carbon. water in fuel makes it worse. put old plugs in for starting then change them out after mess is over. I have used a shop vac before on plug hole but a valve has to be open. I would just use cleaner.
  23. a chunk of carbon broke loose and wont let it turn over. have had this happen to me a few times. fill the cylinders with carb cleaner let it set for a while. have cyl at top. when it wont turn over anymore find cyl at top its your problem. will smoke like hel when it starts trust me he he:hurts:
  24. well I bought mine about 3 years ago. hadnt rode in 28 years. what a difference fluid clutch, brakes, etc. have dumped it one time in parking lot. make sure kick stand switch works. its like picking up a elephant. go slow you don't have to go on the highway. ride around on side streets slow. these bikes are top heavy. ive had to touch almost every thing. brakes are week so plan ahead till you get used to them. my best improvement to date is main power and ground cables bigger is better. take the time and clean all connectors in wiring big difference. my biggest lesson so far don't over fill rear brake reservoir warms up then you go no where. I got stuck on the busiest street in town middle of street bike would not move no tools.
