“Only members in this area”. Forget to use your spectacles again?😁 You and Ben and anybody else wants to make the trip can join in.
My bad,,,, when you live in S. Ontario it's hard to remember that there are other areas. Enjoy the ride together.

Good for you, take it easy at first just to make sure you didn't forget something.

Good for you, bet that trailer won't last long.

Well I found what I wanted at a better price. 2023 LT-1LT Z71 crew cab $12,000 below MSRP and they gave me a solid trade in on my truck. Getting hard to find chrome bumpers anymore, they want to paint them all.
Had to drive 3 1/2 hours one way to get it.
Good choice, not that's it's perfect, but better than most.

We discovered that the same model is built different depending on where it is purchased. We bought ours at CTC but discovered that ordering parts or additions from Amazon weren't compatible. So caution. Good machine though, either way.

It is very possible. Also even an unused battery that has sat on the shelf too long prior to being sold can sulfate. Last week my son bought a new battery and swaped it out in the parking lot were he bought it. by the time he drove home the truck started running very badly, the alternator quit charging and then died as he pulled in the driveway. Battery voltage was at 1.6 volts. he tried charging the battery but it would not take and after he boosted the truck the alt would not charge. He removed the alternator and took it to a re-builder who later showed him the old parts he removed. They were fried and he told my son this was the result of a bad battery. He took the battery back to were he got it and after testing it and determining it had an internal short, they replaced it and all is now fine. When I was a youth working for Canadian tire I would test the battery's before selling to a customer and quite often I would come across one that was bad off the shelf.
When I was a youth???? I suppose that might be a possibility, but you haven't convinced me yet!

Getting interesting!

Look at the switch setup from the bottom, there may be 2 screws holding things together. Watch out for little springs and things, work over a towel or such.

It was charged out of the bike for a couple of hours. I've checked it several times and still only shows BAD on my load tester. It has voltage, but no amperage.
Sounds not good to me,, could have been a bad run.

Take that battery out of the bike, charge it on the bench, then check the voltage after an hour or so, then leave it and check the voltage again in 24 hours. There should be little or no voltage drop.

Take a piece of white paper and place a drop of oil on it. If it spreads evenly there is a good chance there is no gas in the oil. If you end up with a dark center and a lighter ring around it there could be gas in the oil. Another way is to rub some oil between your thump and finger. If it remains slippery it should be OK but if feels like it is just rubbing away and loosing it's slippery feel than there is likely gas in the oil.
Words of wisdom!
Did I say that??

Took my '05 RSTD for a rip with Granddaughter.
Just replaced clutch with help from skydoc_17.
Really hooks up now. Way better giddy up and go from stop. No more slipping.
This site has been great. Just became subscribed member.
Are there members from Manitoba here? How would I find out besides asking here?
Cheers
Hopefully I got this right:
Go to the search on the top bar of your screen, drop down menu to members. Put nothing in the box. Goto search 'more search options' and enter only the province. Voila!
