    I wired my trailer from the back where I could get at the harness, under the trunk area. I glued my modulite inside the back rail and then taped the wires together and run them down the little pipe that holds the fender at the bottom. Hope this helps. Carl

    When you take your wheels off, remove the pads, but mark them so they go back to the same side, and campher the leading edge slightly with a file. You'll find that the squeel is gone.

    Sounds like it will be a real nice ride, might run into you when you're around Brantford. Going to worship first thing in the morning, as always, so we're never ready 'til 1pm anyways. Have a good ride.

    We're still working on putting on another set of tires, should be any day now. We'll let you know. What we're experincing is not a front end wobble, it's more like a fish squirm from the bike itself.

    A little late maybe, but the the plate on #2 is governed by the throttle stop screw. Took me a while to figure that one out, but solved my problem once it came to my brain. Good Luck.

    Don't know how much noise you are looking for, but I just drilled mine out with a 7\8 spade drill bit. From both ends. Gives a bit of a rumble, not anything loud but enough to show that work is being done. Easy to do, all you need is a long extension, the metal is really quite easy to drill out.

    Don't really know the answer, but on the 1st gens there are 2 power wires going to the audio, one for constsant power and one for switched power. If that is the case with yours, could be something flukie with that. That being said, members have had other problems with the ignition switch, so you might look at that.

    Thanks Lou, that was GOOD

    There's a post in the tech section on how to tighten the steering head, actually you tighten them until you have very little bounce on the handle bars when you push them over. Cupping on the tire is not going to help your situation, but from what you discribed your steering head needs tightening.

    I know this might sound some what stupid, but try to put your kickstand in the UP postion.

    Thanks for the update, we will keep praying for you two, and hopefully soon be able to praise, and be thankful for His compassion.

    Well I solved the problem, sort of. First off I found it really helps to have the throttle stop screw backed off far enough so that it will kill the engine, I did, but the sync screw on #1 was was also backed off too far and so that screwed things up some what. Once I discovered this I was able to get the sync perfect and it ran better but the idle would still hang up when it warmed. So the next thing I did was to adjust the cables to factory spec's, as I was informed, and now it will idle at 900 rpm, but it still hangs up at 1200 rpm, although with a little push on the throttle it idles fine. Don't know quite what to do about this, but someday I will find it and then all will be well. As it is, I ride and enjoy.
