  1. I assume you have a manual with the charger ? check it & the Odyssey website .
  2. I'm too lazy to look.....what brand slip-ons are on the bike ?
  3. What about a 2 into 1 setup ?
  4. Hmmmm.explain # 1 a little more . Does the starting motor spin for 3-5 seconds ? The battery must be fully charged and in perfect condition for the bike to start / run properly . Remove your innovation and start over .
  5. It is beyond me why MG does not sell every unit they can produce ?
  6. When you install the hose , use Sil-Glyde you can purchase at any NAPA store to help the hose slide on easily . Take time on how you index the hose clamps when you tighten them . This will aid you the next time you R & R .
  7. It is a component you might consider replacing for your peace of mind . It is hard to argue that point.
  8. Use a good brand of Brake-Kleen and NO type of petroleum products whatsoever near , on or around the brake parts ,
  9. Cut you a block of wood like scud made to extend one caliper at a time to clean each one
  10. Did this happen AFTER you installed the levers ? What brand did you buy & adjust the screws ?
  11. There are no dumbass questions on this forum , only dumbass answers .
  12. I think the nylon will be OK with the fluid in the transmission . There are nylon parts in automatic & manual transmissions of vehicles .
  13. Were both rotors/calipers hot ? Has anyone been adjusting the master cylinder stop screw ? If so you will have to back it out until it does NOT touch the piston ., This keeps it from being a hydraulic jack . If this is ok go to the next step . You will have to get the front wheel off the ground and spin the front wheel and apply the front brake . The front wheel should stop and when you release the brake lever it will be free to roll. If the wheel does not spin break one caliper bleed screw loose and see if it spins .If not try the other side . This test will prove whether or not the problem is in the caliper(s) or not . If they do not release , it is the caliper(s). Remove them one at a time to see which one is sticking. If they are not at fault , the next step is the brake hose or master cylinder. Pull the front brake lever 3 Xs and release . If the brakes hold , loosen the bolt holding the banjo fitting to the master cylinder . If the brakes release , the problem is "probably" the brake hose . Don't forget brake fluid & painted surfaces do not mix .
  14. If you haven't boxed it up , {please} send Scud the shift spring .
  15. I just sent you the $ . Post that it came thru .
  16. Bugtarget , I am trying to reasch you you complete the transaction . Please PM me so I can pay you .
  17. Everything Joe does / sells is top notch .
  18. I think Racecraft was the company . It is some brans that is stronger / better than stock .
  19. The sidestand thrill is something everyone does ONE time .
  20. P.M. me the particulars & I will Paypal this afternoon
  21. Perform the other shift spring mod . I own a Racecraft spring & if mine breaks while sitting I am going to fix mine the other way .
  22. Has this sold yet ?
  23. I agree. And if there's a small leak from the head gasket, it's worth trying to re-torque the heads first to see if that stops the leak (or slows it to a tolerable level). But then... if the gaskets are already in the mail and you like wrenching more than watching basketball, go ahead. I can understand that too. There are O-rings between the rocker arm assy. & cylinder head. Replace them and clean the leaky area between the head / cylinder with Brake-Kleen and you're done !
  24. Modern rubber ?Does the tire size restrict your choices ?
  25. It is best to operate this shut-off until it becomes easy to open / close . Then keep it easy to operate .
