Neverending Valve Adjustment

Did a search and did not really find what I was looking for. I have been having trouble with a valve adjustment and the problem is on the exhaust side. It seems that no matter what size shim is placed in all the exhaust valves, the after measurement is the same as when I started. I have tripled chec...

Re: Front sprocket Nut Torque

Plus it has come loose a couple times even with the lock washer in place. When I took the sprocket off the other day, I flattened the lock washer and...

Re: Electrically Lost

Well tore into the bike last night and as far as the turn signal goes I found the problem. It was just the turn signals themselves not the bike. I pulled them off and hooked up another set I had lying around. Seem to be functioning now. All the fuses are good and are the correct amperage. Charging v...

Electrically Lost

Need some help and dont know where to go from here: Started having some starting problems earlier this year so I looked at the battery. Battery was a little weak and some of the cells were low. Refilled with distilled water and put the battery on a battery charger/maintainer. Seemed to help as bike ...
