  1. Occasionaly runs like crap.

    Mr. RocketEd , I maybe outside the box here but, possible just because the headlight mod has been done doenst mean the ignition switch cant start giving you fits. mine started to act weird, so I did the Relay for the starter relay mod per Mr DeCosse's diagram found on Starter Relay mod by Mr...

  2. Fan operation.

    Every time I've removed the radiator cap I've ended up replacing it. Poor design.

  3. clutch cable

    You might apply some PJ cable lubricant before installing. Cheap enough, helps cable slide much better.

  4. RPMs drop to Zero!

    Hmm DC, these TPSs can be so temporamental. If it did just that one time I wouldnt be to concerned, but if it starts doing it again I would definitely look at replacing it. Mine use to do that on occasion until I replaced it.

  5. It will not idle with new tire!!!

    Dang I knew I should of changed the blinker fluid. Classical TPS symptoms.

  6. tires changed and bike runs like crap

    Replace your TPS period.

  7. Throttle body balance

    When you say stumble, does that mean it hiccups (backfire) through the intake? When I replaced the timing chain & sprockets on my 05 I found the intake to be off a tooth. My bike used to hiccup bad until I replaced the chain and set the timing correctly. No matter what I did tune wise it would...

  8. Installing light relays?

    I dont know about easier but, doing it the piece work way is definitely cheaper. I spent about $25-$30 when i did the mod. Which ever way, it is a must mod, or you will be fixing your ignition switch and no tellin what else wiring related until you do it.

  9. Installing light relays?

    Howdy Hamnest. Take a look at this thread post #33( ) It should answer some of your questions. By the way stop by meet the members so all the captains can wish you a welcome. And the answer to your question is Yes.

  10. Another chain tensioner question

    You will also need a new gasket for the clutch cover. About $10.

  11. Coolant overflow today.

    Radiator cap design is somewhat suspect. I had the same problem. Ive had to replace mine on occassion. Install a new one and you should be good ($20). I believe theres a thread somewhere on this as well.

  12. Removing rear wheel

    General maintenence practice is more like every 10,000 mi.

  13. Removing rear wheel

    Or for all us darksiders, every 10,000 miles.

  14. Diagnosing Electrical Short - Assistance Needed

    MrHD, you have an 05 and havent done the headlght relay mod then you are probably experiencing some sort of harness melt down. Do like Goth says and do the headlight relay. I would then seriously look into doing IDKs keyless ignition mod. Make sure you splice in front of the infamous white...

  15. NO Spark To Plugs

    Make sure all the leads going into the coils are clean and not corroded.

  16. high idle speed & intermittant erratic running.

    What he said.

  17. Final drive oil coming from breather . . .

    Rocket science at its finest.

  18. coolant leakage

    Yep that pretty much sums it up. Jack up the radiator cap and drive a new one under it.

  19. Rich Idle & decel

    Update: It definitely was the TPS. Got the new one installed & setup, bike runs like brand new. FYI, used a .016" shim instead of .010" Thanks for the insight Valmac.

  20. Rich Idle & decel

    Or I could recoat silver for an extra 40 hp Ill retorque the headers (just installed new header gaskets) & exhaust clamps. Upgrade the TPS (have been suspicious of the TPS for a while now). Im running K&N filter & just cleaned it 10,000 mi ago. All hoses are good. thanks for replying...
