  1. I am looking for a set of handlebar speakers. Was looking at some of the cheaper one on ebay. Just cannot justify 400-500 for the name brands, for that price i will just do a fairing. Anyone have any feedback on the ebay speakers. I am looking at this one. I already have my Siruis Radio installed and use my headphones. http://cgi.ebay.com/motorcycle-Ipod-audio-system-100-w-amp-2-speakers_W0QQitemZ250396165856QQihZ015QQcategoryZ18795QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
  2. The old jack I have is very stable. I have used it on all my bikes, I probably wont worry about legs.
  3. That is pretty sharp, I like that. I might consider that for gauges. It would look good body color, would make it blend really well. You did a really nice job on it.
  4. I finally got around to welding up my homemade jack adaptor. I threw some pics in. It is made of 1 inch square tubing. I had to inclube the bike too! Its not a big deal, but i am proud of it. It cost me about 20 dollars at lowes, and about 2 hrs in labor.
  5. Dan Thanks for letting me stop by and syching my carbs. It was good to meet you. My popping is now slim to none. I did not replace those caps yet, but it is a million times better! Thanks again!
  6. Well i dug into the coil today and a connection was loose. Plugged it back in and I believe it is firing correctly. I still has the backfire on the left side, a carb rebuild prob would not hurt, added some sea foam to the tank. The bike only had 1100 miles on it in 2 yrs before I bought it. Dan I would liike to get together sometime if my schedule allows I am on my 64hr week and have the weekend to work, I will def be in touch.
  7. I think I have made some headway. I checked all of the vent tubes and vacuum hoses I believe I have narrowed it down to the #1 cylinder coil. I have not ohm tested it yet but while running I pull all of the wires and that is the only one that does not change. I did replace the plugs with the 8ea plugs. Im gonna hit up the dealer and try to wrestle a coil and an I basket from them, we will see what they TRY to charge me. I am not a big fan of the dealers in my area if you cant tell.
  8. I live in Greenwood and have just purchased a 2005 RSTD. It has the BUB slip ons. I have always had Honda bikes and are used to them. I disabled the AIS and it actually made the popping on decel worse. I dont know if I have a vacuum leak somewhere. I know this is a high revving bike, but this bike seems sluggish to me. I am mechanically inclined enough to get myself into trouble. I was just wondering if there was someone around my area that would be willing to look at my bike. If you had a carbtune that would be great also. I am not looking for a handout, I will pay you for your time, but anyone in the area knows there are not any good stealers. Thanks in advance. Zach... Also I was changing the plugs and there were the 7EA plugs in it as supposed to the 8EA. Is there a reason for running a hotter plug than what factory says to?
