    rear tire pressure goes down to 25 or so psi if it sits 2 days or more.

    Dunno what happened to my 'quote' but anyway . . . Tearing rubber away from the rim area, yep you can do that absolutely, but that rubber is not the bead. The bead it steel wires encased inside that rubber. Tearing the rubber is not breaking the bead, it's tearing rubber. Just sayin . . ...

    I have a Scan tool & the option for coding keys is one of the functions - saw it yesterday actually. As for how long it takes, god knows.

    Turbo mate, you are never gonna break a bead on a tire. You can surely break a bead away from a rim, (it's a process) but you will never break a tires bead. It's made of lots of wires encased in rubber and wound into a circle. Then ends are then either pressed into each other or the bead is...

    Yep, that'll work. Alternatively, it's the rear, take the wheel off & stick it in a kids paddling pool & look for bubbles.

    You could try a new valve core, they cost cents and is very quick to do. Least you'd eliminate a faulty valve core if nothing else. The core has a wee spring pressing against the seal, could be an issue with this area?

    New member could use some help in Michigan

    I went out the the shed & took some example pic's for you. It's an old bike battery, you can see it's resting voltage is 12.72v but it's not a good battery, it just can't supply enough grunt to start a bike, but it's handy for odd 12v things in the shed. Each pic is a stage in the process...

    Did it come with instructions? Put a pic of it up, someone may have the exact same unit. You're voltage readings are ok, a little low perhaps if you're using an AGM battery, but still ok. There should be a battery test function, you just connect the battery (don't try to start it) then...

    Contemplating installing Power Commander

    Oh, ok sorry. I thought you had a Gen 2 rocket (R3R) Yeah, dunno about ECU tunes on Gen 1, but there are plenty of folk on here that will know all about your model.

    Contemplating installing Power Commander

    I'm no expert either, but if I were you I'd be talking to Mr Penner & installing one of his tunes over a PC 5 or PC 6. Alternatively download TuneECU. pay the subscription find a suitable map for your setup & go from there.
