wrillo Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 oh yeah, to rub salt in the wound, they also left vomit all over the gas tank before/after pushing it over.. fucking dickheads...she is all good though, I cleaned her asap and the right mirror took the blunt of the fall on to a fence & held it there. So my mirror is scratched to hell, but she actually never hit the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavscout73 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 okay so its a week later, I put the stator in the bike.. It spit sputtered then started, I check the voltage and its at 14.3 idling.. I think the problems are solved. shut it off to go grab my helmet and jacket start it back up and no spark again.... So I check the plugs I can smell the fuel and no spark at the plugs.. which I will say I will never change plugs on it again. I will pay to get them done... call the dealer I bought it off of "the cycle co" in columbus and Andy the guy that runs it said to bring it back and he will make it right.. Hopefully it gets taken care of.. I have rode the bike 3 freakin miles since it left their store... so another week without the bike, I am loving life right now.. :mad: :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavscout73 Posted March 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 will see, I dropped it off today.. he said today that he wouldnt charge to look at it, but wouldnt say about fixing it... so who knows what I will be getting into when I get home from south carolina next week...my only issue is that the problem was there when I bought it.. just wasnt able to find it in the middle of winter snow..(had it out for less than 3 miles before it died) he seems to think it is the ECM, but is going to check it over completely, and said that if it is ecm that it would be better to replace the factory with a power commander.. does the PC3 replace all functions of the ecm?just keeping the fingers crossed that he takes care of the problem and I dont get hosed in the process...

CBRzach Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Or this,I get pulled over for 81 in a 65 the other day in Dayton. I will admit upfront I was a dumbass and forgot to register a new insurance policy for 09 since I canceled last fall. So now I'm looking at a 90 day suspension and sr-22 high risk insurance and blah blah blah. I registered new insurance that night so it's not like I was avoiding anything.I mentioned to a friend at work what happened, and he told me it might be a good idea to mention it to my boss just in case it would somehow affect my work being military and all. I didnt think it would, but him being a trusted friend and higher ranking individual, I did. Well my boss tells his boss who tells his boss the colonel. Monday I get called in on my day off and after getting my head chewed off about how I'm irresponsible and a danger to myself, they forced me to hand over my motorcycle keys until next week. I get to sit down with the colonel and explain why I should get my keys back. I may not be able to make the dyno day or get some riding in before Ohio possibly suspends my riding priviledges.FML.

Guess we'll keep hoping shit works out... for future reference, I lived in Florida for more than a year, and they call for rain daily on the forecast there. It is definitely going to rain somewhere. If you stay in the same spot for 24 hrs, it will rain on you but only for minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
