  1. Bob spruce

    I have a 05. It just started kicking out 4th gear.

    It goes into gear. But kicks out under load. All the other gears work great. It kicks out and there is some clatter, I can shift into 5th and its fine. Is there any adjustments that would make it not kick out? I want to add a 6th gear if I open it up. But riding season is starting and I don't...

    The annual migration (like lemmings) has started

    Well, the night started out great

    Went for a ride down the shore of Lake Michigan to take in the sunset and get something to eat. Headed home after dark which is something we rarely do. We discussed deer and decided she would look left and I would look right. Had the brights on and was going well under the 50 mph speed limit...

    Switched running power

    I was thinking last night, is there a switched power source that is only on once the bike is running? For instance, the tail light comes on with the bike in the ON position, but the radiator fan only comes on once the bike is running. I could tap the fan and use it to trigger a relay, but was...
