  1. Drop me a pm. They are in the vender member area, but not always the easiest to find there. Just drop me a PM and I will shoot you my e mail. The standard is $25 and keyless is $33. Pay Pal is about the easiest.
  2. You know when I first read this post heading, I said to myself "any road around here". Barry you forgot to mention the stupidly high amounts of wrong way drivers here in the last year. Seems to epidemic for some reason.
  3. Glad your OK. Lots of those type crossings in Oklahoma and Texas in them parts. Usually there is a large yardstick type thing close by so you can see how deep it is. Being i t has been so wet out that way may be why water and moss is still on it. Usually by this time of year its been 100+ for a couple months and water would normally be long gone I would think.
  4. Trying to figure out how to attach the PDF I have. Instruction sheet 2nd.pdf
  5. Well the open and shut was just short description. They usually act as a "flow gate" type thing you said kind of like when you take a shower and find that "rite" temperature. EXCEPT my 96 Ram diesel. That thing hits about 190 watch the gauge and it drops to like 160 or something then it will go back up to 190 when it opens again. Like a door. But I have been told this is normal for those engines. I agree what the wetters do is change the "heat absorption and dissipation" properties of the water. The thermo is still going to open @ 190 flowing. But just incase someone is thinking about it the wetters as far as I know have little to no antifreeze properties.
  6. When I did my research, I think I came to the conclusion that the dex cool wasnt going in my bike. As for any of the ice, super coolant type stuff before I did thechange some of the discussions were with a thermostat in it is going to run at the presribed temp no matter what you got in it. Anti freeze or the ice stuff if thermostat is say 210 its going to heat to 210 and open. Then when it cools so far it closes and cycles.
  7. ECK, I'd be afraid some JA would walk by and think its real then destroy my gas cap to steel a fake dollar. But looks OK. I wrapped tape around the outside of my cap, then painted the center with the plasti dip stuff. This stuff is great. Sort of a rubberized paint and if you dont likke it you can peel it off. I painted a helmet with it and its holding up will. Been a year or more and no chips in it yet.
  8. I painted mine with black plasti dip paint. Whats nice is if you decide in a couple months you can peel the stuff rite off. It also ends up with a finnish that looks close to the black plastic surround thing by cap on the RSV.
  9. From where to where? The one from the harness to the player will probably be a Yamaha only or used item. Nobody has used c-bus cables in about 15yr. At one time I had located a source because I was working on building a cable or find schematic for building an I-pod cable.
  10. Search e bay for "motorcycle air horn" I bought a couple wolo ot srebel knock off types srill many many db and they were lkke 20 bucks a piece. Just remember if you mount up one ofthese it needs to be on a relay. Also there are some "beep" type horns that are pretty good. Listed under "sickspeed" .

    Ram mounts

    I have gone thru 2 plastic phone mounts off e bay. For the money the were OK. When the last one started to get loose I shopped e bay and watched for deals. Picked up the X looking mount thing for under $30 if I remember rite. My GPS mount has been great to.Quality stuff if anybody is thinking about it. Mounts are not cheap, but chasing whats left of your phone skidding down the road.........well priceless.
  12. One of the reasons I am leaning to the 10 is the way it connects. The cradle had better reviews and I like that there is several options as far as speakers vs ear buds or you can plug in a source via wire if you want. But for the most part , yea I think the 5 does the job. And as for the i simple thing the i pods that work with it are high even in the used market.
  13. Sounds like possibly just some corrosion was limiting how much spark/signal was getting thru
  14. I go in to many thought patterns at a time. Now thinking maybe the Sena SMH 10 may be the way to go.
  15. So all is good? What fixed it? Just a wiggle and reattach everything.
  16. Pretty sure Should have had power wire into unit, a power out and the other wire (probably black) has a ring on it maybe. Should ground out. No instructions with part? Whats it look like?
  17. Coil is a coil far as I know. Got a freind on another board that just went thru coil issues. Let me ask him, Ill get back to you.
  18. OH yea If it has not been changed in 35k it sure would be a good idea.

    Dead Bike

    Well I guess you can get something bad every once in awhile. I looked at my records since I started keeping them. I made about 10 before I did. I have made over 100 of these and its the first I have had fail. Like we discussed, when I get the old one back I'll look it over to see if I can maybe figure out how it went bad. I'll get a new one out to you soon.
  20. Some of us like the 14610 filter because it is 3.52" long as opposed to the one you mention 2.95. More filter area. I just checked advance and they dont list the ML 16817, so that be why I aint running it.

    Dead Bike

    Shoot me a PM. I will replace the unit for you. I sure would like to know what the heck went on there. How long has it been installed? I'll make it right. In the probably over 100 units I have made I can say this is the first one that someone has had a problem like this. Almost looks like overheat issue. Maybe a bad connection at plug? Extremely sorry for your troubles.
  22. thanks for the kudo's
  23. Yea maybe if you left the choke on as you tried to throttle up it was to loaded up. I dunno usually mine will cough and accel bad but it will clear and go. It s the lower rpm that suffer.
  24. I wear the sport or wicker type longer underwear. Also either monkey butt powder or some baby powder. Helps
  25. Sounds fuel related. My fuel pump started to die and usually was when I had to switch from main to reserve. But if it didnt catch it would do a very simular action to what you discribed. Almost like pump had to cool off a bit then was fine. Sometimes I almost thought it was vapor lock.
