  1. Progressive 430 HD Shocks

    Ive had a set on my bike for uuuhhmm about 2 months now I think.. I noticed the difference right off the bat from the stock shocks, feel much more confidant in tight sweepers... they are suppose to be adjustable by hand.. but you have to be well.. atleast stronger than me to be able to do...

  3. Oil drips from where drive shaft enters engine rear

    thanks DCRocket, I just fired out emails to two local shops, basically telling them I was shopping around for work to be done, and asking if either are familiar with these "good will warranties", if they offer, them or honor them... if they don't bite.. I will try a few more shops a little...
  4. Work on your own Bike??

    Howdy all.. hey, Im curious on who has worked on thier own bikes and what type of work theyve done? things from as easy as changing the oil to actually removing the engine and opening it up. I have an out of warranty 05. Ive done some simple things such as changed my oil, changed out my...
  5. Oil drips from where drive shaft enters engine rear

    DCRocket: So how did you go about asking your shop to do work that was out of warranty?.. or did they just offer to do it. Ive heard of many people get the work done.. but I get this feeling that my main place I take bike too.. will not back me on out of warranty work.. thats why I may take...
  6. Oil drips from where drive shaft enters engine rear

    I hadn't taken it in to the dealer to check it out yet... im a little frustrated with my current dealer now.. because Ive started hearing and noticing wierd sounds when I decelerate and the cluch pulled in. I told them about it, they test rode it for about 7 miles and said they didn't...
  7. Oil drips from where drive shaft enters engine rear

    I just recently had this exact same thing start happening with my 05 Standard... initially I think I overfilled it with oil.. .but since then ive done an oil change.. and I still get the exact same kind of oil drip that youve explained??
  8. PROGRESSIVE 430'S

    Just wanted to give everyone a little review on the Progressive 430 11.5" shocks with the HD Springs. Im 5'11" @ 175lbs, I ride daily to work, and every weekend always looking for a good variety of tight twisties and long sweepers and I have noticed that with the HD springs, it does tend to...
  9. Another High Idle Scenario

    Yea, mine is acting up again... I had a TPS replaced and reset about 1 year ago.. same issues.. idle would get stuck at 1500-2000 rpm.. sometimes 3k. took it in last weekend, they said it would be a few days til they could look at my bike.. I couldn't wait.. so I tinkered with the tps...
  10. Rocket fixed. It was the stepper motor

    Yea, when you are riding down a mountain with twisties and your bike doesnt drop the RPM's to give that throttle control that is needed. Im guessing since it all electrical driven... the stepper motor just started going haywire. I did a really nice ride today through some twisties in the...
  11. Rocket fixed. It was the stepper motor

    I had crazy RPMS as well during riding.. it seemed it would get stuck at 1500rmp, then 2000, then 3000rpm all within about 15 minutes of riding. I would cut the ignition on the bike, and things would settle down a bit.. but after about 15 minutes of riding.. it would do it again.. Plus...
  12. Rocket fixed. It was the stepper motor

    the TPS and Stepper motor does look like its removable w/o removing the throttle bodies.. but the manual says you have to remove the throttle bodies... I just wasn't sure if I was missing something.. so now I will prob be looking into doing a stepper motor and/or TPS R&R myself...
  13. Rocket fixed. It was the stepper motor

    GASKET: did you manage to see the process of R&R'n the stepper motor and TPS? did they need to remove the throttle bodies? do you have a cost esitmate of what they charged for the work? .......................... Im still thinking its my stepper motor that has caused erratic idle...
