.040 Over
So I decided to start a new thread since my '06 Classic has a range of issues I'd appreciate your help addressing. IDK & Warp9.9, I know you guys and others on here know what you're talking about and I trust your advice.
So about my bike first: 2006 Classic, ~48k miles, EB headlight relay, wireless ignition, darkside, LED taillights/rear signals/brake light, 3 air horns (2 compressors), Antigravity 20-cell lithium battery, commoning bars for accessory wiring, secondary ground to frame, Toyota starter with separate relay.
First, I'm having that no-start problem AGAIN. This is quite frustrating, but I believe the problem may be the starter button. Should I attempt to disassemble that housing and clean the contacts, or would this be a good time to install a remote start as I've already done the keyless ignition conversion (although my second keyless unit just burned out, so I have a hotwire setup right now)? I could not find a thread for remote starters.
Additionally, when I was troubleshooting this, I thought perhaps the clutch position switch may be dirty. When I pull the clutch lever, I hear a funny noise from the front of the engine case, even though the bike is in neutral. I haven't had trouble shifting or popping out of gear, but neutral is sometimes hard to find.
Finally, I've started hearing the cam chain rattle at take-off with some consistency. I assume this indicates that it's time to replace the guides? Does anyone know if the $200 update kit is still available?
I've done almost all of the work on this bike over the last 30k miles, except that I had my mechanic check the lifter clearances last year and they were within tolerances.
Again, any and all advice or guidance is appreciated!
