  1. I assume the bike is new to you, so did you do anything to it when you got it (plugs, battery ? ) How many miles on it. Did it crank over or just click, when trying to start it ? After chargeing the battery did crank and how long before the battery drained ? I would assume it may be original battery. IF so replace it ! As for the spark, this normally means something was turned on, some power was being drawn from something, maybe the key was on when you connected the charger. LEt us know how it goes. There is quite a few of us around. BRad
  2. Probably none ! Brad
  3. Congrats to the two of you. I am sure you will love it as well. Hope to see (meet) you at Maintenace day or the international ride. Brad
  4. Glad to hear. It rained all day here, but I am not ready anyway. Curious is the windshield too tall ? Did you get the goodies on the bike yet ? Did you need us young fellows to come down and work your tools again BRad
  5. Ours isn't either but at least in places we are starting to see it. Brad
  6. I would try this route as well, most likely not get anything but nice to vent on somebody so maybe they get out there next time and clean it up faster. Sorry to hear and wishing both the best. BRad
  7. But that was Cindy not Dale ! Brad
  8. Wow, never saw one of those before (I am sure I am not the only one. )and the Attachment does not open up ? Brad

    Seat removal II

    I did this right after I lost the first ones. BRad
  10. I do not have one but I think the 86-93 are different than what you have. Have fun should be a little easier than the cats. Brad
  11. So, will this one will be harder to find than the ones in your yards ? BRad

    Seat removal II

    This is how I get mine off. 3/8" drive are too big to fit. I will have to take a look as I am not sure what you were talking about ? Wait till you have to put the screw back on :rotf:Don't over tighten or it will pull the stud out of the seat, too loose and when you sit on the seat the nut is loose and will fall off. Brad

    Last Day

    4 Oclock to Midnight, last shift, How much work did you get Done ?? Congrats to you. See you in the summer. Enjoy your retirement BRad
  14. YAh Right, where do you think we will find a WILD catus ? I can even take one out of the pot and put it in the ground without showelling snow Brad
  15. Nice Ride, I am sure you will enjoy it. Brad
  16. Checked a couple at 50-60,000 miles and they were still within specs. I would not worry too much about them. Not sure what the recomended time to check them is. Brad
  17. Appears you all get another year. Being pushed out again, to June 2009. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23834411 Brad
  18. There has been 3 or 4 first gens that I know off. Brad
  19. I would guess a Battery problem. Check the battery cables for Corrosion/contact. Also check the frame end of the negative. Did you keep the battery charged all winter ?? You could always run the jumper wire on the Ignition and put a switch in and hide it under the seat, this would help you figure out which one. Also a good backup, for the just in case. Brad
  20. WHen we ship our products over the ocena some of them sit on the deck. I believe they are sprayed with something to protect the electrical and the paint. Our Brazilian office is now shrink wrapping them. That Salt air will destroy everything Chrome, electrical, paint etc... Brad
  21. Glad to hear it is a relatively cheap fix. Brad
  22. Thanks Just have to roll the bike out of garage into the driveway. Snowbanks are even larger than the bike still. BRad
  23. I too like the full instrumentation, and get rid of the cassette. A little larger rear speakers would be great for a little more base. Other than that I am fairly happy with the bike, a little more power would be great but not really needed on a big bike. I do not need to race Wings or Crotch rockets. What I think would be real nice is that they take a few minutes out of there busy schedule and take a peak in here and ask the question. Then they can hear it for themselves. (asking a little much Eh !) Brad
  24. I doubt it will be too soon. :rotf:Charlie does, so why would Redneck not ? Brad
  25. Yeh they sound and look good too, too bad they did not make it into my trunk Bet you were keeping your eye on them BRad
