    IDK: are you pulling my leg? "Battery charged just from adding the acid?"

    New battery NOOB question:

    Thanks in advance guys. I have a new YUASA VTX20L-BS. Just put in the electrolytes. I have two chargers on hand: Battery Tender Junior: 12 Volts 750mA And Schumacher SC-1200A-CA which has an AGM 3A 12V AGM mode. Which charger should I use for this brand new battery? I'm not in a...

    What would you do?

    I have no idea what that means but couldn't the cap have blown because the fan fuse blew and the heat built up because of no fan and that made the coolant expand and pop the top?

    What would you do?

    Can't get at the bleed screw so I did my best without it for now. Refilled. Fan seems to be working at the moment.

    What would you do?

    Could I for instance use : Prestone 50/50 Antifreeze Coolant. How many gallons would I need if it were low/empty? I don't mind buying more than needed just don't want to end up with less.

    Also, the replacement fuse? How standard are they? Where do I but replacements? (I'm in the USA, NYC).

    What would you do?

    You guys think I can walk into Kmart and pick up from the automotive department coolant? Do I have to drain any remaining coolant or can the new coolant be mixed with the old? Sorry for such simple questions.

    What would you do?

    Thanks Guys! Looks like the fuse was blown. Looked discolored compared to what I assume are extras at the end of the rows. Substituted the "fresh" one with the old one. Had some trouble checking the coolant level but will try checking again once I get her into a garage.

    So was riding a lady home just now. For the first time ever noticed the heat indicator lit up. So I tried to coast the last couple of miles on low revs, problem is we are in NYC with traffic and red lights. Made it to her place. As soon as we got off though the Rocket started a medium light...

    RIII electrical issues, help please.

    With the OEM YUASA battery which has been in the rocket for 2 years the charge wouldn't hold while riding, so after maybe 6-8 rides it wouldn't start the bike so I charged it with a battery charger. Then after 2 cycles of 6-8 rides it would only last a couple of rides after wall charging it. I...

    Hey Guys, I've read about the 10K mile Valve clearances - check/adjust for a while now. Moreover, when I brought my bike in for a tire change, break change and yearly service a few months ago they reminded me that at 10K the rocket should have the valves adjusted and a long list of 10K service...
