    It almost sounds like an exhaust leak. The sound seems to go away with rpm, drive faster........

    Why?

    Flyinfool replied to mraf's topic in Watering Hole

    WHY can those Canadians not keep the back door closed to keep all this cold air up there?

    I guess we will just have to bury that in snow so that the next time Puc gets his picture took it is just a wall of white.......

    Yup the ferry that runs out of Milwaukee would be 88 per person 44 per bike 25 per bike trailer 6 security check? 163 total one way But Manitowoc is 100 miles north of me and Ludington is farther from Dons house than my house is. Now if anyone want to meet up with me on the other side of HELL (chicago) early Friday morning ................. Or maybe I can meet up with Eagle and Puc and some of the other MI group somewhere around Toledo..........

    Even with Pucs endless love of SNOW, He could even make watching a blizzard mesmerizing.

    It all depends on just how bad is bad. Try a hard stop, if the front bottoms out real easy then you should do the springs right away, if it does not bottom out easy then it is safe to wait. Right now the springs on my 88 will only bottom out with a near the edge of traction stop, while hitting a bump in the road. They will be replaced just for the better ride. Most people either remove or disable the anti dives with the progressive springs. The CLASS will still work with the progressives, but for most people it is not needed in the front. Most run the front at 0 PSI with progressives.

    Since most of them are based on meteorologists, and we all know meteorologists all are not real good at what they do....... The best ones are Stickyourheadoutthewindowandlookup.con or Goforarideandseewhathappens.con

    I guess that will vary by locality. In Wisconsin you do have to pay the tax at the store because the GVW of the trailer is under 3,000 lbs so no registration or plates required. If you take that state paperwork back to the HF store and talk nice, you can probably get the tax refunded to you.

    Having put in the heavier starter cables does help the hot starting. If you should happen to get into the area of the starter, putting in the ground mods helps hot cranking a lot too, or replacing the starter with a 4 brush starter is the best option. The AGM batteries in the stock size all are an improvement in hot cranking. I don't know if brand really matters much. There are many of the flodded batteries that also do not have the hole for the probe and need the resistor mod.

    There are at least a couple that do. It does go down from bumper to bumper traffic down to just really heavy traffic in the middle of the night........

    Its looking more and more like I will be caging it to Dons. Whether I cage or bike I usually leave Milwaukee around 3:am Friday morning so that I can be past Chicago and Illinois before those crazies wake up.

    I found your Snowlets I think you better ease up on using strange chemicals in the basement.......... I guess I may have to get a clothing attachment to send over some cloths for you to wear.......... COOL!! 8 more weeks to play!!!!!!!

    Ya know Puc I really don't think they mind who shows up, after all they are letting you and me show up...... Cha Its only a maintenance day, not a rebuild day..........

    The other common culprit is the contacts in the start switch. But I would start with the fuse box. Those factory fuse holders are really bad news.

    In addition to what you said Sync the carbs. Have a new set of plugs ready, heavy Seafoam will foul plugs. Check the date code on the tires. as well as look close for any sign of cracking. Change the engine oil, rear end oil and antifreeze. Fill the gas tank and go like hell..........

    The biggest problem is that most people that upgrade their lights never bother to aim them properly. I have been told that my HID is no more offensive than the stock headlight, but I do take the time to keep it properly aimed, and I do really like the extra visibility at night. It has saved me from more than one deer. I have never changed a headlight bulb, even replacing a stock bulb with the identical bulb, that did not need to have the aim adjusted. There are manufacturing tolerances on the bulb and the filament will always be in exactly the same place, hence the need to reaim. Aiming is especially important when changing the type of bulb. Most people that aim lights by themselves have them adjusted to high, which is hard on other drivers.
