  1. best replacement battery?

    +1 on the Shorai. After 5 years, my trusty Odyssey 545MJ couldn't crank a cold rocket even after staying on the Odyssey charger. It would hold a charge, but voltage would drop down to 7.5V on initial crank. That's not hardly enough to start the ECU or coils. Out of the box, the Shorai...
  2. Dropped it again today

    Almost dropped mine when it was two weeks old. On the way to dealer to get 500 mile oil change. Stop and go traffic and did a panic stop just short of railroad tracks. Wasn't plumb when it stopped and she started leaning over. Caught it just before it made contact. I'm thinking wrench my...
  3. Jumping out of gear - HELP

    http://www.r3owners.net/final-drive/7681-ever-heard-r3-blowing-up-2.html#post85896 Here ya go. Happy reading. That post has all the links of my saga and the eventual happy ending. BTW, I still like Stone Arrogant Bastard and nobody else does - - so more for me ha ha! Good news is she is...
  4. PLX Wiki Wi-Fi and Rocket ECU

    After searching through the PLX support forums, it appears you can no longer configure your own PIDs through the iPhone app. At one time, this may have been possible, but the forum posts sound like it got scrapped in the final version of the DashCommand app. However, you MAY be able to setup...
  5. PLX Wiki Wi-Fi and Rocket ECU

    Got the plx kiwi wifi working tonight. Found out from the rat site that I had to jumper pins 4 and 5 to get the device to power up. Not all PIDs got monitored, but dascommand did detect MAF, MAP, fuel flow, rpm, ST and LT fuel trims, IAT, coolant temp, gear selected, and engine load. A/F ratio...
  6. Overheating?

    I have an '06 classic also. High coolant temp and low oil pressure use the same red warning light. There is a little triangle in the LCD screen that points to which icon for either oil pressure or temp. This is the only way of knowing which one is the problem. Is it possible you were...
  7. PLX Wiki Wi-Fi and Rocket ECU

    PLX Kiwi Wi-Fi and Rocket ECU Just got a PLX OBD-II adapter and the iPhone app DashCommand. Works great on my two Ford vehicles and wanted to do some data logging on the rocket. Even though the box says it it compatible with KWP-2000 protocol, I can't even get the adapter to power up when I...
  8. TuneECU Question

    Tx, Not sure if this will help, but here is what worked for me: http://www.r3owners.net/tuneecu-source/7831-tune-ecu-success.html Last few months I have been getting fast idle occasionally after long hauls. Hope it is not TPS disease. Seems to happen more often when it is really hot...
  9. Poor Gas Mileage...?

    Stock '06 Classic with 24,000 miles. Roadster windscreen and Corbin Beetle Bags full. Best ever was 38 mpg riding one up. Highway only + 65 mph + right hand behaving itself. Worst mileage was 28 mpg with a lot of stop and go traffic in the summer. Mileage drops about 2 mpg around this...
  10. Battery Keeps Dying

    PC545MJ 3 years old. Very reliable until this winter. Last 3 months, it will not start the bike when temps are below 40F. Got an Odyssey Ultimizer charger and it did improve the starting performance. But the battery simply didn't have enough cajones to start the cold-hearted SOB after the...
  11. Charging System?

    Tried an experiment to see what the current draw was with ignition on and high beams selected. Hooked up my fully charged battery on smart charger and verified zero amp draw with the ignition off. When I turned on the ignition, the current draw was 10 amps!! With the factory battery only...
  12. Tranny problems in the older bikes.

    British-USA. (Bought it there also).
  13. Tranny problems in the older bikes.

    Paul - - We live in the same neck of the woods. (I'm in Seabrook). So you know which dealer I use. Dealer learned the hard way how NOT to do the upgrade kit on my '06 Classic. Took 9 months and 4 attempts. But when they finally did get it done right, it has worked very well since. I had...
  14. Tune ECU Success

    Gear position, not cylinder numbers. Dohh! Forgot about that. Thanks.
  15. Tune ECU Success

    Took me a second to remember the function keys . . . First, load tune #1. Then select File, Compare File on the menu. Pick tune #2 you want to compare from the file directory. It will load up in the background. The first tune you loaded is still displaying at this point. Pick a table...
  16. How do you know whats good?

    Had a good experience uploading my tune and tweaking the throttle plates. Maybe this will help: http://www.r3owners.net/tuneecu-source/7831-tune-ecu-success.html
  17. Progressive 418 Shocks

    The Progressive shocks come with a spanner wrench. Be sure to use the grease that comes in the kit. Makes adjusting the preload much easier. The 418s are much easier to adjust than the stockers.
  18. Progressive 418 Shocks

    Got the regular (non-HD) 418s since I mainly ride 1-up. I believe the damping is achieved by an adjustable orifice in the hex adjuster up top. The higher the number, the smaller the orifice. That will control the rate at which oil passes from the high pressure side to low pressure side...
  19. Progressive 418 Shocks

    Oops. Missed this thread when I replied to the other one. http://www.r3owners.net/general-tech-talk/8181-high-speed-laid-over-bump-then-2.html#post85291
  20. High speed, laid over, bump then...

    Put 418s on my '06 R3 classic in the first year. I mostly ride one up (165 lbs) and have the Corbins loaded. With the stock shocks, small bumps and highway expansion joints used to bounce me right out of the seat. Hard cornering at highway speed was downright scary. With the 418s...
