  1. Its possible, buts its usually a lack of flow and an inrush of air when you open the tank. Check for any pinched vacuum line
  2. I don't think the carb sync is covered but I'm pretty sure the drive pins are. Tell him its making a creaking noise and that should cover it. #9 and #10 Clutch hub and pins are what needs to be greased and should have been from the factory. There is a tech bulletin on it. If the dealer doesn not want to do it for nothing then call Yamaha directly. http://parts.yamaha-motor.com/partimage.gifx?d=37591,2,0
  3. Try uninstalling it then reinstalling it.
  4. I used a cd for about a day then went to an mp3 player. Works better.
  5. The best way to deal with a dog running at you is to change speed. He is running on a course to intercept you and cannot change direction that quickly. Slow a bit if you have the time, He will change course then open it up all the way and the dog generally won't be able to catch you as he won't be able to change direction fast enough because he's at a dead run. If the dog just seems to appear out of nowhere and you only have a few seconds then drop a gear and nail it. They probably won't be able to catch the bike.
  6. Since when do dealers know anything about motorcycles. They only know how to sell stuff.. :rotf:
  7. The computer won't let you over rev it. Let it rip till it misses. Then you'll get use to the sound of the redline area.
  8. Just a short thought about sunset and sunrise. When you see the shadows have grown long And your still riding on The shadows point to those who cannot see For the sun is behind me And when the shadows point towards thee Those coming from behind, Its thee they don't see. Ok, I ain't no poet but thought if it sounded really dumb you may remember it.
  9. Be sure your holding the cartune straight up and down also. But I would say a leak. Use some carb cleaner to spray around hoses and stuff till you hear the engine change.
  10. Lets see if I can figure out how to do this. Used the phone for this one. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HryrB5UpGeo]YouTube - drilled out RSTD pipes[/ame]
  11. Worked good, Now if I can just get the RSV leaned over that far... Cost? BE good for some of our rides. Bandwidth is not on the VR server?
  12. That's why you double checked. Its always had to see something coming at you with the sun behind it. Brother in law was a trucker for years. Killed a man in Texas after he pulled out in front of him in his pickup. DPS said the other driver was probably blinded by the sun and did not see the 18 wheeler with a Sailboat (Wide Load) on the back of it coming at him.
  13. Remove the covers. Then turn on the blinkers. Start tapping on the blinkers,flashers,wires and switches. Some where you should cause an affect and then you know your close to the problem if it is something that's loose
  14. Mine was too soft also. That's whyI added an inch of heavy carpet padding and now its great.
  15. Most of us have. You just switch to AUX and it works
  16. Could be a bad ground or you need a DC filter. Tell them to listen to the Buzz.
  17. Must be the only city that tests bikes. CA is pretty strict but they don't even test bikes yet.
  18. Anti slip pool paint is good stuff too. Basically Driveway paint with sand in it.
  19. It dang sure ain't gonna keep up with the FJR but the wife will like riding on it a lot more, She won't have to hold on so tight
  20. Only gotchas its got is once you got it you gotta ride it and then its gotcha cause you just gotta keep ridin it till you gotta get gas. Got it? Great bikes
  21. It is a 5 pin system. Only thing I can think of is the headsets are incompatable. You need to have somebody with aset of J&M's try it
  22. No. the music does not cut off. It only cuts off for the cb
  23. So you have the IC set to 10 or higher on the control where it says IC ?
  24. I do it that way. But I use a set of sawhorses so its up high
  25. I have the Zumo550 and can see it in the bright sun. Its pricey though. I wear glasses all the time and these have the transitions, makes them turn to sunglasses in the sunlight. But the screen has never been blank. Is it possible that Polarized Sunglasses make the screen appear blank?
