  2. Rick, there is a right up from freebird on 2 -10, I used the process and it worked great. I did however make one mod on the temp gauge. I did not use the brass piece that screws into the plug fouler, I drilled the plug fouler and used it.

  7. Thanks for all the replies. Looks like your all right!! i fired the bike up today and cold start the gauge reads 30 to 40 so when it warms up it drops. Good to know. Also I did notice the water temp i figured if it hasn't got to 250 and no lights on I am all right..
  8. at idle i was sitting at 0 and at speed at 20 when i first installed it was around 40 to 50 at speed.
  9. Just finished installing my oil pressure gauge. worked fine and then I noticed the reading dropped to almost nothing. First installed was around 40 to 50, I was riding back home and at full speed on the interstate it was reading 20. Any ideas what could have cause this to happen. It looks like everything is tight and i have noticed a leak. Thanks
  10. Thanks for all the replies!! Mine is around 210 -215 in the Texas heat. Also i used th write up by Freebird but I used the spark plug fouler instead of the brass fitting from lowes. Had to drill the opening bigger but it worked great.

  25. The first Christmas with out my father. My dad was a Korean and Vietnam vet. He served in the Army for 20 yrs and was a Police officer for 24 yrs. He passed away on June 4th 2011, due to septic shock and some other problems. He always gave neatest and wierdest gifts for Christmas, One year he gave a ball cap with a radio built into it, one year he gave all of the guys the razor knife that fold. Small tool screw driver set in a case. He would find stuff in magazines ads or stuff online and order 7 or 8 of them and send them to his Kids and grandkids. You couldn't help go "WOW"this is a great gift. You knew it was a novilty gift. But the "Best" thing about all the gifts was that they were from the heart of a very generous and loving Man named, William Earl Best. Dad is with God and will aways be remembered with Love. These are my happiest memories of Christmas. Typing my last few words with tears in my eyes. John Best
