    Water drain in fuel tank blocked

    I had a similar problem with the vent pipe in the tank of a Vmax once. I used a new bicycle brake cable. Superglue saturated about an inch of the end. Stuck it down the pipe until it hit the obstruction. On my Vmax I had to twist and push to get around a tight bend at the beginning of the pipe...

    Early vs late R111 transmission / drivetrain comparison experiment.

    Bought a 2005 with 11K miles last year. Runs and shifts great but I noticed the drive train makes slight clunky noises when cruising at lower speeds and lower rpms and in different gears. Like 35-40 in 3rd. Small quick + or - changes in throttle causes a light clunk noise. Does it in all...

    Considering to buy 2018 Rocket 3

    I wouldn't run it with the old gas. If there's not much in it now you can just top it off before driving it. I recently bought one that had 3 year old gas in it. Ita also a 2018 flat black with stripes. I used a dipstick oil evac pump to get the gas out. Not room for anything much bigger than...

    Damage repair

    I saw some used rocket crash bars on ebay last week. I think their more useful for preventing damage from falling over while stopped or moving slowly rather than for crash protection.

    Throttle linkage issue causing high idle.

    Ok, I found the problem! The inner and outer throttle bushings above the stepper were fused together. They are supposed to move separately very slightly and have a little clearance about 1mm in the end plate dogs, that you can feel when you push the lever with the roller, and spring returns...

    Stepper motor regulation problems

    Yes the Triumph starter gear only spins one way with pliers. I do know to change out the nose of the Toyota starter. I do suspect a bad TPS. Thanks for the reply.
