My Moto Hobo life


i agree
i suggested he buy an extra battery just in case.
with towing the trailer i assume it will be on
but if just after the rush hour in the morning might be ok.
 
I had sent Mike the test process already but he is a 30-year HD Master Mechanic so I will trust he did the procedure correctly.

I will try to time my passing through Phoenix between 1-4pm and take the 101 bypass loop.

I’ll have my 12V battery on top of my trailer with cables ready to go should I need to stop for traffic to ease up.

I’ll order the parts tonight once I’m sure the bike is running and get back to camp.

Keven said that he can send the necessary tools to borrow overnight.
 
yeah just let me know where to send, im taking it not to mikes shop so i pulled back off shipping there and will hold until i hear definite where to send. I have the rotor tool and i have engine collar tools. Holding until i get address and to definitely ship.
 
if you have made a firm decision to come to tucson then i would have tools and parts sent here
if u have faith in rick then go with that. (its not going to hurt my feelings either way.)
herman.
i think he is correct that the stator is bad and u need to order.
 

I was 90% sure I was headed your way last night Herman but woke up and saw the light (other than the bright sun shining on my camper) and it’s a done deal after considering the risk/reward.

I’m walking back to Mikes soon and hopefully they have my bike ready to go.

US$140 vs your US$225 quoted for a Rick's Stator seems quite good and you cannot beat Hermes for reliability and service from all reports.

I am sorry that I don't live closer.

I have a spare stater that was removed at the dealership two years ago said it looked bad. Even have spare indicators too. Will find photo and post later. @Rocket Scientist posted pictures of his that he put back in his bike.
 
weather in tucson 1-4 will be 98 degress. about 8 degress higher in phoenix,
estimate driving 2 1/2 hours to phoenix
phoenix to tucson across town another 2 1/2 hours.
i would suggest u leave around 7 and avoid the heat that would put u into phoenix about 9:30
when u come down off that mountain it like coming into hell i get depressed.
 
kevin can u explain what u do (take off) to remove that cover to get to stator?
can reply tomorrow.
