nice but usually stuff that do many things doesn't do anything right

My bike was backfiring on deceleration way too much and with the 4-2-4 nasty boys installed was worse and louder, after reading the simple instructions of this website plugged the AIS and voila what a difference !!!!!!!!!! I still have some but improved about 80% I will need to synchronize my carburetors but before I buy anything I will try to see how is done just want to say thanks to the group the info here is priceless !

Freedom

just purchased a set of 4-2-4 nasty boys, after cleaning and polishing they came out pretty good they have baffles and fiberglass packing and since they are out, they could use repacking. anyone have experience with different packing material? is synchronizing the carbs totally necessary (don't own a synchronizer) ? do not want to spent a lot of money on packing material, and will probably install them as they are Monday and hear how they sound will appreciated all the input good and bad you have about these

in my early twenties (many moons ago) a trucker called me that over a CB radio, liked it and become my handle.

Good question ......... I wish I knew how to change the color lol , Red is what I'm using

1) I own a RSTD no tape deck here 2) don't care much about accessories I'm reluctant to change anything and just love it the way she is (been married too long I guess) will I buy a new one ? definitely NO, because I feel they are laughing at us with this product so I wont give them my business even Vespa (another perfect machine) changed a couple things throughout the years I said this before they have improved the vmax with fuel injection etc they could've improved our bikes power plant pretty easy

yes !!never said was a good song , but it was the first thing came to my mind when I read the post

just remind me of an old song lyrics "I think I'm turning Japanese" lol they should work less and ride more often. Motorcycles are helping ugly people get laid since the early 1900's I think I'm turning Japanese by the vapors was the song sorry my espanglish is betrayed me

my son's 9th birthday is on the 5th(almost forgot) ........... not sure how we are going to celebrate it yet but I might ride there and back on the same day ......we'll see

shooting for the 4th ! is ok with me ..........looking forward to see you guys !

had a procedure ( balloon Kyphoplasty)in my fractured vertebra on July 7th, felt better right away but pain seemed to travel to different areas.......... after almost two month I can tell I will get there ............ trying to lose some extra weight to help my back in my case having the fracture for 5 months did not help at all like everyone else here I wish you a prompt recovery and the very best Dan

had back surgery almost 2 month ago (fractured lumbar vertebra) and I'm getting better and really need some riding............ I can arrange any day if I get about a week notice bottom line I would love that !!!!!!!!!!

not yet but I'm waiting for a waterproof voltmeter to arrive I'm thinking I'm going to install it along with a lighter plug in my handlebar

Yes indeed

yes I will keep an eye on it. I think the only time I've seen a regulator like that was on old Cadillac if the 2nd gen has about 14V at all times something is not right with mine. Disregard this post because it will lead to more confusion and feel free to erase it I thought that our RR might work that way Thanks again for all the help Dan

if the battery is completely charged it doesn't make any difference if you rev the engine over 2000 RPM it will only begin to charge when needs it, in my case was when the cooling fan came on. that is what made me think that the charging system wasn't working I was testing it with a battery that had just received a full charge

my bike is working fine with the aftermarket RR . tested it one more time to avoid any surprises and for awhile my voltmeter wasn't going over 12.4 V-12.6V no matter how hard I rev the bike !!!! I was thinking it was broken again but, as soon as the fan kicked on, and starved the battery a little, my voltage went up to the desired 13.8v!!!!!!!!!!!! so the original might've been ok !!!(I will test it some other time) this is new to me,I only knew of some old Cadillac that worked that way bottom line if your battery is completely charged do not expect to read 13.8v your regulator will kick on only when needed (which is awesome for the battery) hope you guys understand what I'm trying to say with my broken English but our regulators are very unique just as our bikes Dan

Should I replace my spark plugs before doing a carb synchronization or out doesn't matter........and by the way anybody near fort Lauderdale Florida with the tool and the know how?it will be useless to me if i don't learn first

happy Birthday have a blast

That is a Beautiful bike !! I really like the color enjoy it !

sorry forgot to mention voltage was perfect 13.8 volts !!

I like that tape !!! next time I play with electrical I going to wrap it on every connector Air force also holds the credit for duct tape right ? "the Handy man secret weapon" (from the red and green show)

After solving my battery charging issue lead me to think on installing a voltmeter to monitor my battery/charging any suggestions/ideas ? what type and where to install it on a 05 RSTD
