Which spark plugs to use
Jethroish posted a topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Doing some winter maint on the bike. I see a few people mention using Autolites and of course the NGK OEM plugs and the platnums. Anyone use Champions? Pulling the original plugs, they are burning clean. The gaps are worn out to .038 Local O'Reillys has NGKs or Champions. -
let me explain: Was coming back on the interstate yesterday on a new to me bike, enjoying the scenery at 70 mph. Kept detecting a burning smell. OK, on a new used bike, so I checked it out but could not see anything and nothing was malfunctioning and the smell went away. I chalked it up to someone burning brush on the sides. Later, I kept getting whiffs of the smell, but I didn't put smell and smell together....Then: BANG Big explosion thumped my chest and scared the whatever out of me, and cars in front had brake lights and were scattering as I started seeing bits of tire all over the road, then bits of sheet metal all twisted, then a cargo trailer that I remembered passing me being pulled by a pickup. Construction material and pipe all in and over the trailer. Now the right fender was torn and mostly gone and at least one of the tires was coming at me! None of the cars around me would let me change lanes to get out of the debris, so I slowed way down and weaved around it. Truck/trailer pulled over, a few cars stopped (probably had debris damage) and I moved on. So if you get a whiff of something burning on the road, "listen" to it and see what might be about to explode in front of you!

I have just finished rebuilding the clutch slave cylinder, new O ring, pin and compression spring on the nautral safety switch, all new exhaust gaskets and silencers., but still getting this coolant smell. Looks like the light smoke is coming from the exhaust chamber and rising up. There isn't any oil in the coolant and no coolant in the oil. While I had the exhause off, I did a good cleaning of the bottom of the engine and all parts I had off. I did all of the fore mentioned to find this burning coolant smell problem. What lead me to tearing the exhaust off is I thought I had a coolant leak, but never any puddles. Before doing all this along with the burning coolant smell, there was also water coming out of the exhaust mufflers,(still is). This is a 1989 XVZ1300 I bought about a year and a half ago and only ridden maybe 7 or 8 miles,(been trying to get things done to get a sidecar on it). I noticed it at first and the previous owner had told me he had just spilt some coolant when filling it, I think he knew better and that's why he sold it. But my problem now and need to get it taken care of so I can finish it. Any help would be great.

Anyone tried the 9003/H4 HID kits that are all over Ebay for cars? Instead of burning a 55W bulb you're burning a 35W HID lamp that gives you a lot more light with a 20W savings. I also wonder if the computer will freak out or would you have to remove the Reserved lighting unit and other wiring and simply wire it to the handlebar switch and call it done. any ideas? a single Ebay kit would upgrade 2 bikes. You can also get bike specific types that have a HIGH/LOW beam.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BI-XENON-HID-CONVERSION-KIT-H4-3-For-Motorcycle-Bike_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713Q2em153Q2el1262QQcategoryZ36476QQihZ020QQitemZ300260708063QQtcZphoto for example. -
I'm on my 4th set of passenger headsets in 4 years. The drivers set which gets used all the time doesn't break. Could there be something in my wiring burning these out? Last ones were IMC-HS-G35U-FIVE PIN OPEN OR FLIP FRONT HELMET HEADSET.
