erm, I can't find anything! But some stuff just comes to me. I think it's because I'm a V.11Forum Moderator and so have partial super-powers (and a computer). Wellllll, I have a computer.

The downside would be if you had an electrical problem with ANY one of the components in the flywheel. The Model T(I think) had the electrical/charging system integral with the flywheel. The Hybrid vehicles being produced now have this (a real mess)setup.

How do you find this stuff ?

Are you sure this sensor is going to have the same temp/resistance values ? Yes or No..not maybe.

Attach the wiring directly to the battery and place an inline fuse on the pos. wire as close to the battery as possible. Use nylon ties to secure the wires and use a sturdy bracke to mount the receptacle.........

Do you have access to a wiring diagram for your bike? I assume the pcm is easier to access than the air temp sensor.If you can disconnect the wiring harness and check the resistance at the pins to see if you have continuity or not. If you don't then gain access to the sensor and check it. If it is open the sensor is bad.If it is not you have problems with the wiring. p.s. I do not know what the resistance value is at ambient temperature. You should assume if it is between (for now) 100-2000 ohms it is o.k......

I have one for the rear caliper if you want it...................

What is a caliper cover ?

$20 for a brake hose is a bargain............

I don't think the brake hose problem could cause the pads to do this to the rotors. I suspect the caliper is sticking. It needs attention.

Is your's the Veglia model ? White or black face ? I had mine fixed at Palo Alto Speedo Service. Costly but I am happy. You can call for pricing info to decide what you want to do............

Amen.............

Define crush washers ? The belleville (Schnorr ) washer beneath the allen screws ? Fastenal has them but I think they are available in fraction size only. Don't quote me on this.

Pavel, do you know how to use an analog or digital volt/ohmeter ?

Some time ago we discussed the Norge side/stand & kick/stand problem... There was/is a cure for the dragging in corners with full luggage. I think there is a revised stand or repair for this and I can't find the topic... Can anyone remember any TSBs or part #s for this ?

If you don't come up with one, I have one. The ones on my bike are plated but the one in my spare bolt bin is black......... Just let me know!!!!!!!!!

The PowerCommander is in series with the factory ecm. It alows you to adjust everything going through the computers factory settings for your altitude, desires, etc... The only way to go. BTW, you had better enjoy fiddling with motorcycles because the bike is almost correct and you will spend your time trying to get there.

I looked at the one on my bike. It is a 12x35mm socket head capscrew. You can get one at Fastenal. Also there is a washer beneath the bolt. The lock washers I use in these applications are called high collar lock washers. They are the same diameter as the head and will fit the bore of the hole in the frame.

Do you want the dimensions to make one?

The AMP Superseal connectors look like the ones used by General Motors. They are called Weatherpac connectors.... Probably the best thing ever made to connct wiring harnesses together.

No ! You're kidding........ I use a Ford / Motorcraft XG-12 . It is used to aid in the sealing and protecting contact points. There also is a product called Stabilant 22. It will aid in contact points of electrical connections. This is a definition for the word dielectric...........http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric Make sure you want dielectric grease where it is supposed to be....

Docc, could you tack-weld a lager plate to the bottom of the spindle to keep it from falling over?

And less resistance since the it is rolling friction instead of rubbing friction.

I don't care for bullet connectors. If you can, either replace them with insulated spade connectors or just use butt connectors. The butt connectors are kind of permanent; you will have to cut / install new every time you disconnect them. When you ar eworking on this look at the integrity of the copper wire. If it has been HOT you will have to get/go/trace back in the wiring harness to find good wire to connect to. Looking at your picture I don't see anything that looks fried or melted.

The roller lifters are to stop cam lobe / lifter heel wear.
