My other computer when I turn it on will beep 3 or 4 times and sounds like the fan is running at high speed. The monitor says its not receiving any signal and the fan is really loud. Any ideas what happened or what I need to look for?

Is there any such thing as to loud??? Just removed some of the baffles out of my stock 1st Gens mufflers. Of course we had to start it up, and rev it up while mufflers removed. WOW that sound nice!!! Maybe to loud. So we put the partially de-baffled mufflers on. Sounds ok at idle, and at cruising speed. However sounds to raspy while going through the gears, hitting the obligatory 6-7,000 rpms. I would like a deeper rumbling sound.

After having not ridden it for about a month, since I got the RSV, I pulled the cover off the Tour Classic, this afternoon. Just as soon as I sat down on her I thought, Wow I see now why the RSV seemed so intimidating. The TC seems WAY smaller than the RSV. I can actually put both heels down and bend my knees slightly. On the RSV I cannot get both heels down at the same time, even with zero pressure in all three shocks. Then when I pulled out into the street it seemed like I was back on something, size wise, in line with an old Honda (CL77) 305 Scrambler! Ok I know the difference, but man it is seems small. I guess I was always under the mistaken notion that the Tour Classic was the same physical size as the RSV, just with less bling. Anyway, I really had an enjoyable afternoon running errands on the Old Friend! It BTW still has the completely stock Yammie mufflers on it and that was another plesentry as the RSV has Road King mufflers on it and they (IMHO) are too loud, at least for my taste. They are loud enough I have to turn up the volume on the AM/FM that I haven't yet figured out if I have one of the Chirp-er/Whine-ers Anyone wanna swap a stock/stock set of Yammie mufflers for a set of Road Kings?

Looking at Bub Sleepers and Baron Bag-Slashes for a 2006 RSTD right now. Not looking for anything too loud, just a good quality, good fitting slip-on. Any sort of consensus on this around here? -
What is the possibility of using a 2nd fuel petcock on a 2nd Gen to get full utilization of that big old gas tank? Boomer.....who's thinking out loud here.

I Hope this isn't a strange request. I'm looking for a set of mufflers off a first gen bike, I don't need the collector box or headers just the mufflers. I want to put them on my XS1100 sidecar rig. The megaphone on it are eaten through and loud as hell. Very uncomfortable to ride so loud because the sound reverbs off the sidecar body making it worst, I like the look and sound of the oem cans and would like to put a set on the 11. if anyone has a set that they've taken off and have lying around I'd be glad to negotiate a price for them. Please let me know aand contact me here. thanks guys Phil.

Riders, I know this topic has been beaten to death but I need to know "from the last related posting" what is the majority of members using for after market mufflers I don't have the metel knowledge to make mods that installing the "road king" mufflers would take.. I don't want LOUD, but I do want that deep rumble sound that will let cagers know I'm there.. Bubs ? " Do the sleepers still have the crome tip issue? Kromeworks ? etc etc Help a fellow rider out 06 RSTD THanks -
My new Steibel horn that is. Just had it installed and I can't believe how loud it is. Should get someones attention now.

Thought I would run this by some of you... I just did an oil change and decided to switch to Amsoil 20W-50 and new filter. Started it and Drove it about 3 miles, shut it off and it set for a little while, when I restarted it, the engine started tapping (like valve noise). No engine oil light came on, but noise went away after about 30 seconds... Oil level was at the top of the fill mark (with engine off). Never did this with Dino oil, just wondered what caused it to start the loud ticking noise.... Sounded like it was coming more from the front of the engine. It did do it again, but not as loud and not as long.... anyone ever experienced this happening to them ?

Well hello to everyone! It has been awhile since being on the site. Those of you don't remember me, I was the reason for everyone using earplugs at Vogel!! LOL! Yes the loud pipes are finally gone, and after two years without a bike, Eck has convinced me that I was old enough" ha ha" for a different kind of motorcycle! Seriously, I rode his new goldwing and was instantly "sold" , so I had to have one! I will be at Vogel this year and am looking very forward to seeing everyone I remember and meeting new people too! Rest assured, the only noise I will be making this year will be coming from the radio or the CB.

My exhaust on the '87 VR is starting to get loud. It's hard to describes because it's not just a loud muffler type noise....it sort of comes and goes throughout the acceleration. Is quiter when cruising and off the accelerator. Seems to get a little quieter after it has warmed up, but not as quiet as it should. I have visually inspected the system and can't see any obvious rust through holes or anything that would appear to be the problem. As a result, I can't pinpoint it with my ear either. I am hoping the issue is gaskets between the exhaust and the cylinder head. To get to the front cylinder heads where the exhaust ports are, do I need to remove the rad? It looks that way. How do I get to the rear cylinder exhaust ports?

I bought an 89 Royale and the radio has a couple of problems. First off, the volume control is extremely sensitive. One click from all the way down and the radio is at medium volume. At 2 clicks, it's loud, and at 3 its as loud as it gets. Also, the tone control seems to have very little effect from one extreme to the other. I took the control unit apart and checked the volume and tone potentiometers, and they are good. Does anybody have a more complete schematic than the one line page that's in the manual?? Frank D.

Found an interesting article on the fuzz using louder exhaust. It's seemed funny that it said there was no proof that louder exhaust reduces accidents but it was very clear to me. I had a stock Dynaglide muffler on a Suzuki S40. Not real loud but a bit more then the too quiet stock one. I used to average having someone switch into my lane once a day. With the muffler change it never did end up happening again, though with time eventually some blind moron would have done it.

basically this is the first add on to my RSTD. finally decided on the Barons slash cut's. The bike is still stock, but I guess that's the fun of customizing it. Have to start somewhere I guess. I hope that they aren't too loud!

I recently bought a 06 RSV that the previous owner had installed a set of Python slip ons. They sound great but too loud for my taste, any ideas what I might could install that would be close to the sound of the original pipes? Thanks in advance and by the way,I am new to the site and really enjoy reading everyone posts.

Hi All, A friend of a friend is selling his 2001 XVS1100 VSTAR (see pics below) for $2500.00. It has A Harley Headlight and Running Lights, Hard Saddle Bags, Cobra Exhausts, and rear Air Suspension with onboard compressor. It has 6100 miles on it. It is a bit loud for my tastes but Ebay has stock pipes cheap. If anyone knows anything about these bikes, PLEASE let me know, I know very little about the big twins. Thanks for your help, Earl

Looking for a set of RSTD's. Mine were damaged in the accident. I had a second set but I had drilled them out completely and they are too loud for me. Anybody have a set they want to sell? Or trade for a loud set of RSTD's.

I've got a question on a set of Edsets I just installed. The original headsets come in loud and clear. The Edset however needs to have the intercom on 19 to be heard and the radio also has to be loud. Are there any attenuaters in the system that can be taken out of the system, or adjustment on the headset to help out/ Thanks, Kenw:confused07:
