Check your fuel filter and make sure your petcock is all the way open. Sounds like it could be fuel supply.

Don't want to throw a damper on this Dingy, but do they have inside room in case it rains??

Ok, so now he knows about #32 as well,,,, oooppps!!! lucky I mentioned the numbers eh?

The stator will put out lot more than 17v, but at 17v you would fry the battery. The RR (regulator, rectifier) job is to change AC to DC and then to limit the voltage and govern the amperage. So if it goes, it can be lots of fun.... too much voltage plays havoc with light bulbs and anything else electrical. Our systems can handles about 15 v max, more than that real and possibly expensive problems can crop up.

What's your problem,, I thought we had discussed this at length Hooning is snoring isn't it???

In your case,,,, your right,,,,, you see, it all depends on who you're spending the night with

Just a reminder,,,, that in all your rush you remember to pack your passport,,, I know of one instance were somebody failed to remember, and had to go back to get it,,, then things can get worse,,, you can get lost after that,,, but the good thing about it is,,,,,,,, your buddies won't abandon you,,,, just leave you behind:rotf:

Could be the stator, or the regulator,, or a battery connection. Start by charging the battery to a full charge. Check the voltage on the battery post as well as the wire, they should be the same, more than 12.5 volts. Start the bike, rev it up to about 1500rpm, The voltage should now read about 14v, both the posts and the wires should read the same. If you don't have around 14v there now, most likely you have a stator issue. Could be the regulator as well but that is not common.

Connected between #32 (in the joint of the cooling system under the right side cover, 3 hoses together there on same joint) and cover # 37 which lays between the 2 cylinder banks.

It seems you don't know me very well bro,,,, I don't wear t-shirts,,,,,for if I did I would never get anything done,,,,, hugs, photo ops, combing my hair,,, yes I have hair,,, and on and on...... Ya,, thinking I should rent something for this coming weekend,, maybe a Harley,,, lately there has been a change, and I wish I could ride a bit more rather than being the celebrity on the block,,, it's nice at first, but after the first round they all come back for more,,,,, guess it's just my style!!!

Obviously he had the same problem,,, hey,, you're still a good looking chick,,, never mind his comments!!

Oh ya,, good lookin boat as well,,, where did you say you park it??

It's lake Erie that they're on, Puc,,, there's no roads on that lake and no ditches, all the poles froze off last year and the trees got move to the land side. Makes it safer for some people!,,,,,,, and it's always good to watch your back trail so that you can tell if you're actually going somewhere,,, something you learn on a Harley I guess.

Nice bike,, nice photos good job!!!

You be careful now Puc,,, that there lady do give good hugs but sometimes can't let go,,,,, 'course that could have just been my effect on her,,, but be careful, you just never know!!

Just so you are aware,, dielectric grease does not conduct electricity, and greases up the connection so that re-soldering is out of the question. Now if you twist the wires as suggested you wouldn't de-solder them anyways, but grease does tend to migrate up the wire. Now that same grease will keep out the moisture and that is good.

Maybe then I should make my own way there seeing as Spyder may a problem staying far behind you,, I tell ya, that thing wants to just go,,,,, and if I'm anywhere in the area other Harley's might even construe up the idea that we might know each other and then you would be in the HD black list,,,, and we couldn't have that happen,,,, so Spydie will be lonesome once again. Maybe Dingy will ride with me???

Got to bring this one back to the top,,, the Rooster lost it for some reason I will be leaving home @7:30 am,,, hopefully I'll be awake by that time.

I got three wheels so that I'm ready sooner,,, don't have to worry about that kick-stand thingy. Check out the thread. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?102460-S-Ontario-riders-to-MD-2015

Have been missing you,,, glad you're back.

And here I thought the REAL Saddlebum was here yesterday,,,,,, guess I'll have to wait for MD to meet the real one and that CowPUC guy with wings.

So?????????? isn't that the way it is supposed to be done??? I watched a video once and that's how he did it!!

I resemble that remark!!!!!,,,,, I see you on the weekend,,,, maybe even have to ask you to STEP-OUTSIDE!!!!! if your getting in the way of the food!!!

I will attempt to put my thoughts on paper,, well screen. Within this world there are those who would make it 'bad' for everyone else in their grouping. Take the Indians for example,,, when the white man came over here we considered them both savages and good trading partners. Not all were what we thought they might have been, and not all were that we thought they might have actually were what we thought. Then there are the Dutch,, traditionally they were considered to be the cleanest people in the whole world,, well I'm not saying they are dirty, but there is some mis-conception there as well. We could go on with different folks for different reasons, but it seems that there is always a group within a group that sets the climate that is viewed from the outside. One of the reasons that my mind was never interested in a Harley was the aura the seems to hang with the brand. I don't want that hanging on my coat-tails so to speak. Does that mean that I don't like Harley riders because what they ride??? nope, I like FreeBird, and I will even visit and park right beside a Harley given the opportunity. But yes, I notice they don't wave much,(I think something to do with bike control) and some of them don't talk much,(maybe have a slow to speak impediment) and they are usually too cheap to offer to buy me a coffee,(most of them don't know I Dutch) but hey, there are others out there that have the same opinion when it comes to Spyders and their riders,,,, too bad for them, jealousy will get them nowhere. Now to call them names as a whole bunch,, not my style,,, yes the guy quoted was looking for serious trouble, if I had been in that situation he might have found himself riding awful close to the shoulder, I've been known to slowly squeeze them back if the traffic allows,,,, but to call all Harley riders dirt bags is not fair. Taken further then,, if a person were not a rider then all MC riders are dirt-bags to them, and we need to work on changing the view of ourselves.

Or you could just leave the free part in place, and have everybody jealous that you have a 'wiggle-diggle' that they don't have. Might be a real conversation starter,,, not that you need a conversation starter,,, but it might be something for others.
