    Need Electrical Help

    That thought crossed my mind. The female slots where the original male flasher prongs plugged in, and the Signal Minder, looked dirty and greasy. Maybe the problem is there or in the fuses I pulled. If it happens again I will do some cleaning and maybe use the dielectric grease I have. Thanks.

    Need Electrical Help

    UPDATE: No surprise that I still haven't received a reply from Signal Minder for their thoughts. Doesn't really matter now because all is apparently well again. Why? I am not sure. One of my questions for Signal Minder was how in hell do I unplug the connector to what they call the...

    Need Electrical Help

    Well, interesting thought about an aftermarket Signal Minder, didn't cross my mind that what I have that has been working for years was some kind of bogus unit. Still have the pamphlet, still looks exactly like the Kisan unit that I bought from them direct. I messaged them this .am. for their...

    Need Electrical Help

    ****, Herm, you may be onto something there. That is exactly what I did with those parking bulbs because that seems nutty to me to leave them glowing inside my headlight buckets behind my new LED headlight. I figured with their rubber housings there would not be a chance for grounding or...

    Need Electrical Help

    I installed LED headlights a week ago on '06 R3 Classic. I've run the bike several times since then with no apparent electrical faults. Today, as I always do before a ride, I checked turn signal and brake light functions. Results were zip, nada, bupkis, nothing. My shop manual says fuse in...

    Front wheel bearing gone

    Approx. how many miles on that bearing when it failed? I have approx. 37,000 miles on my '06 Classic so wondering if I need to add bearings to my 'to do' list.

    Fuse? Relay? Short? Loose Wire?

    Fuse? Relay? Short? Loose Wire?

    Ignition switch on gets me headlights and tailight and inside gauge rim lights but no idiot lights and no needle sweeps until I start bike. Then needles sweep and idiots lights come on. Any ideas why the delay with the idiot lights and gauge sweeps until bike is running?

    Rear tire puncture - any emergency advice?

    Several months ago I rode my Harley over a screw on my way to meet my riding buddies at a local Harley dealer. Well, I had both a repair kit and a compressor, so did one of my buddies with a CO2 gadget who came to help me. My tires,(Pirelli Night Dragons), had gotten so thin that nothing short...

    Ear Phones That Fit Under Helmet

    I am right behind you, just turned 76. Anyway, have learned a lot of practical common sense stuff from you since getting my Rocket several years ago. A now 93 year old biker friend lost control of his Harley and knocked me off the road a few years ago. Me and the Rocket dug a fair sized hole...

    Something Broke ( gonna make more powerful 220hp coming up)

    Okay Dude, if you insist on being honest, I won't try to stop you. Just trying to give you a, "honorable" way out. Respect! :thumbsup::) I do not recall you ever getting it wrong, maybe not exactly right, but never completely wrong.

    Something Broke ( gonna make more powerful 220hp coming up)

    I recently watched a youtube.com video where a guy dumped his brand new Goldwing and blamed Honda for their, "100% design flaw." I took that to heart and from now on I blame my screw-ups on 100% design flaw. Just a suggestion, when in doubt. :thumbsup::laugh:

    Ear Phones That Fit Under Helmet

    Very interesting discussion. Like you, 1olbull, I had no idea the BT earphones were a thing. Had I known I might have experimented with a set before my recent purchase of the Sena Impulse modular helmet. For past couple decades I used Sena comms that attached to the side of my 3/4 helmets...

    Riddle Me This

    No joy, terminals clean and connections tight. By the way, my odometer bit the dust a couple years ago and my speedometer went South a few months ago, although the led's at the bottom of the gauge still light up when called for. Couple years ago I installed a small diameter(2") GPS based...

    Riddle Me This

    When I turn on ignition I get no lights or gauge sweeps until I hit starter button. Then I get good start and idle and gauge lights and sweeps. Any ideas why bike has to be running before I get signs of life?
