XT225 that I miss every time I'm in the mtn's

How long do you have to wait? Not that riding an R6 is the worst thing in the world. I wouldn't want to own it, but borrowing one... That's a different story! (BTW, I was very fortunate... my code-12 was fixed with a good slow charge and a battery disconnect.)

Interesting findings, Kenny. I'm always impressed when OBD system do what they were designed to do. Oddly enough mine is showing this same code after I accidentally drained the battery and tried to to charge it yesterday. I have to assume my CPS is not the real issue though considering the...

I love it - Nice work. I've been thinking about this for mine for some time. Thanks for the idea! :rockon:

Congrats on the sale!! :thumbup:

Go rat bike!!! Very very cool. :thumbup:

Not sure if this was already posted.. I couldn't find it. Original link License LOLs: Official Company Motorcycle - That Will Buff Out - Funny Car Photos

Yeah, seriously Traf001... We need more pics and info on those SW Motech Trax cases. I've long wanted Happy Trail aluminum panniers, but you've changed my mind with these bad boys. Are they the 37L? What about the racks? Standard Motech's? Must have!! (edit: Yep, you've really started...

RIP Mr. Jobs

Yeah... no... I said I'm not surprised that the bike can do 100K. However, I am a little impressed with somebody putting an average of 16,000+ miles per year on their bike. I commute on my bike every day (year round) and get in as many weekend trips as I can throughout the year and can't...

I don't expect the magnets to work, but you never know. I will say it's always best to get your motor centered right over one of the lines. I had one light that was giving me trouble almost daily on my ride to work. One day I finaly got around to calling the police dept. to report it and...

I'm not at all suprised that the bike made it to 100K miles. I am impressed with her saddle time. NICE!!!!! :cheer:

I dug a little deeper into the DID website and found a reference to a 50(530)V chain. It seems that 50 and 530 are the same size chains so maybe Yamaha calls it 50V4 yet it's also known as 530V? I guess I'll visit another Yammer shop..

So I bought a very gently used chain and sprocket set for my 2006. It's all in primo condition but it's missing a master link. I suspect this is because this style chain doesn't really have a master link so the chain had to be cut off of the original bike. It's the DID 50V4 chain that the...

Oh man... sorry to hear/see that. Thanks for sharing.

I forgot to post this last week... FIXED! Thanks again Skooter65. The new assembly did the trick! I couldn't get the harness through the frame though. The connector was just too big (I ended up cutting the connector completely off the old one to get it out. I have it routed...

...when you are coming up to an intersection on a bicycle and your left thumb flails around trying to locate the turn signal switch. This happened to me this weekend while visiting my parents in IL. My mom and I went on a bicycle ride and I did that twice.

Did you find that your's were loose? If so, was your problem resolved upon tightening?

You say it's at any speed. What about the rev range? For example say you're cruising at 65MPH and roughly (I don't know.. maybe 6500RPM's) and you pull the clutch in and release the throttle. Does the vibration stay the same or go away?

Ok - New plan!!! Scott and I worked out a deal and I will be installing a new (used) assembly. Yes, I could probably fix my kill switch, but I'd still have the hosed starter button to contend with. 2 birds... 1 stone. Life is good. Thanks Scott!
