    Hmmm, could be the start of the dreaded ignition switch failure, or could be that the main connector for the controller inside the front fairing needs to be disconnected, cleaned, and apply dielectric grease then reseat a couple of times...

    Yup! You need the metric version of phillips for all the screws on the bike. Try giving the screwdriver a good wack with a hammer first before trying to unscrew. Yes, impact screwdriver is the best way but a hammer sometimes busts loose the rust and crud holding the screw...

    Last Thursday we received a set of Larry's lateast production run arm rests and I must say Becky is extremely pleased!! I feel a lot better too knowing the armrests won't swing out while we are going around curves and turns which is much more noticible on a trike where we don't lean like 2 wheelers. Installation was a breeze! The hardest part of the operation was drilling holes in the passenger grab rails. I recommend drilling a pilot hole first to make it a tad easier. Our trunk was already installed in the second set of holes so that step didn't need to be done, but in our case I discovered my trunk was not aligned properly for some reason and the passenger controls were right in front of the up tube, whereas on the other side the up tube was quite a ways over from the same point, so I am suspecting either something did not get aligned properly with the trike conversion, or my left passenger grab rail was bent out, or the right bent in, or both! Anyways I ended up drilling new holes in the bottom of my trunk to move it even further back and over about a half inch or so. I would suspect that on a normal RSV this won't be a problem! So, I am highly recommending these to anyone in the market for a set of passenger arm rests. They are high quality and rugged, typical of anything Larry builds! One nice touch is the top of the arm rest is fabric insert with the sides leather. Very nice touch in hot weather so your arms aren't stuck to the leather after a long ride! BTW I now have a set of Diamond R armrests for sale now, $100 or B/O plus shipping...

    Yah! I relocated mine all thge way down to the lower right fairing where the other fuses are and replaced it with a modern spade type fuse...

    Yes the end caps are removable with a phillips screw from the inside, so the grips have to be removed first. Stock grips are foam rubber. Aftermarket 3/4' grips will usually mount up OK...

    You could try starting out with a big sack of potatoes tied to your back seat and work up to something bigger and heavier until you are used to the extra weight..

    Very "flippible" little bike!!!

    As far as the cap, no, use the 400 volt version. Just because the input voltage is only 12 volts does not mean that there is something in the circuitry that generates some high voltage spikes that the capacitor is trying to filter out. Try some online electronics stores such as MCM, Parts Express etc... PS the voltage rating is more important than the value of capacitance. .047 microfarad is a common value but you could get away with something like a .05 etc.

    Ours sprung a leak about 6 months ago, my side right about halfway down, so I know that embarresing feeling! We decided to go with a conventional bed this time. Sprung the big bucks for a Sterns & Foster and love it!!

    Yes it is difficult to decide what to think or react. On one hand it is indeed a tragedy, but on the other hand it is ironic that the helmet he was protesting is just the thing that would have saved his life...
