    plastic filler

    If you're just interested in cleaning the over-spray look into the clay bars from Meguire's http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-Smooth-Surface-Clay-Kit/dp/B00063X7KG They do work good but not a substitute for a paint job. a clay and a good wax would make that bike look alot better and could be done...

    Portland to MT and back...

    Rattlesnake Pass is the road and man let me tell you, doing that road on a fully loaded E-glide was a CHORE! I had to stop several times to rest and refocus, it is taxing physically and mentally, on my Buell it would have been funner but still exhausting for sure. Glad you had a good test run...

    Help me with numb hands

    One factor that has made a big difference in my wrist pain has been making sure the controls are adjusted to a position that makes it easy to keep my wrist in line with my forearm, thus keeping my carpel tunnel areas unstressed. use your legs and core to grip the bike and your arms loose.A death...

    anybody messed with a stripped spark plug port?

    I used a Heli-coil kit on my Harley, took the head off to do it but if I had to do it again I would leave it on and use grease on the tap. worked very well and have over 20,000 miles on it now.

    08 xb9sx ecm theory

    First thing I did was save the stock ecm bin "just in case".I'm pretty sure a guy could screw up some shit with Tuner-pro!My main issue is the lean surges at cruise, not to worried about every last horse, seems the only way to rid the bike of that is a wide-band with controller tuned to a richer...

    08 xb9sx ecm theory

    I have a 08 xb9sx with K&N filter and a race pipe and stock ecm maps, runs ok but a stumble of idle and lean surges at cruise.I have been poking around with tuner pro in a before ecm bin and a after ecm bin. both show a pretty rich fuel map with the AFV at 83.1 for both. now my theory is that...

    DDFI 3 tuning

    It is my understanding that ecm-spy is not needed and tuner-pro will do it all now.I have played with my 08 in tuner-pro but have not datalogged yet.Tuner-pro seems like a powerful program and way overkill for most people but works good if you can figure it out.good luck.

    reflash ??

    I have a 2008 xb9sx totally stock, and I think it has the original ecm flash because the fan runs after shut off. My ? is do I have the bike reflashed to the latest factory update before tuning the bike this spring or leave alone and tune as is? I have a K&N filter and stock exhaust.Does anyone...
