Sorry fellas, but I'm out. I have to stick around town for work. I had been hoping to get caught up enough to take Friday off, but it ain't happenin. I'm in Groundhog Day hell.  | ||

Well if I cannot figure out my surging issue I might not be able to attend friday. I rode the bike to work today and after 4k the bike produces zero power. Im going to tinker tonight and probably take thursday off to work on it. | ||

I'm trying to think about what it could be, have you checked the knowledge vault to see if there's any info in there? Don't supposed you've had the TPS reset anytime recently? How many miles on it? If it's at 8k miles or better, I'd put some good plugs in it. How about the air filter? It sounds like a familiar problem but I can't put my finger on it (maybe cause I've drank a few green beers)........ Any ideas Sam? | ||

I start every engine troubleshooting session with a TPS reset. I have been lucky so far and this has fixed all of my issues (surging, sputtering, rough idle, etc...). | ||

Was having this issue last year before putting in the garage for the winter. At that time I did the TPS via ECM spy and that resolved the issue for like half a day. When the issue came back and I tried the TPS it was a no go. Before starting it for the first time in like a couple months yesterday I put in new plugs, wires and air filter. I currently have SUSE installed on my laptop so im reloading at the moment to windows so I can get ECM spy back in the works. Hopefully that will complete in the next few hours (stupid windows) so I can reset the TPS. I also have a new O2 sensor but I have not put that on. Can the TPS sensor go bad? If so is it common? | ||

My 2000 x1 rear shock just went out.  Anyone got a lead on affordable local shock? | ||
| Ratfink |
Bear. I got all different colors just in case someone wanted a color other then white. So if anyone needs one, I got them. And duff, ur still insane. I hate getting caught in rain. But one thing I hate more. And that's riding into rain. I'll go buy some good rain gear if ur serious. U just wanna get away from ur girl is all. LOL | ||
| Duff24 |
Nahhh, rain aint so bad, worst part is your bike gets dirty. Atleast this way you'll be ready, its worse when you're NOT prepared! | ||
| Mr_incognito |
I hate riding in the rain! Ill be coming back Fri night lol...I guess ill come back by myself if I have to  | ||
| Bearracing |
Just got back from RiverFront Harley... Bike might be ready by friday mid morning.. Down side is i wont be able to ride it in the rain as they didnt get my fuse box cover in yet. So if i am able to ride my bike friday.. ill be coming back friday night, so i can keep electrics dry! Its looking more like ill be driving my truck down though.. :-( | ||
| Mr_incognito |
Tell them to hurry up on your bike so I have someone to ride home with Fri night LOL | ||
| Bearracing |
Chances are it should be ready.. Just needs all the plastics put on, and pretty much a few small things.. like i said cant ride in the rain cause my fuse box and wires are still out in the open to the wet. But they told me they would have it at least be able to ride by friday mid morning.. But id have to keep it drive till the rest of the parts come in.. So keeping my fingers crossed!! | ||
| Ratfink |
Incognito. Duffs insane. Went out and got me some rain gear this morning. Girl called me. Now I gotta be in wichita by 2 pm saturday. And i'm not pulling an all-nighter till Saturday... *hint* Sorry doood. I'm on for a full day Friday only. Chicks gotta come first! But on a side note, I now have some really kick-ass rain gear! | ||
| Hookgo |
I will be out there tommorow, is everyone still meeting at151st and 69 Hwy. I am planning on riding back Friday so Incognito has someone to ride back with.  | ||
| Duff24 |
Yeah hopefully everybody will be out there, the ones who are left anyways. Hopefully we can leave by 10 or a little after. Fink, you wanna drop off those markers by my place since you're not going? Punk! So for those who didn't get the memo: Friday, 3/20/09 9:45am QuikTrip at 151st and 69 highway | ||
| Gowindward |
B.J. If you get the bike back, with no fuse box covers. Put gallon size plastic bags over them and zip tie them on. The area is pretty well protected already even in a down pour. | ||
| Hookgo |
Where do you think would be good to get rain gear? I think I will pick some up tonight looking at the weather it is calling for a 30 percent chance after 5pm. | ||
| Caféelite |
Im a no go tomorrow.. I cannot get my piece of shit running correctly. Actually its running worse now. •••• it I dont care anymore it can set in garage all summer. | ||
| Ratfink |
WHAT? Wait. You read my post wrong! I'm going. Just not gonna be staying overnight. Thats all. | ||
| Duff24 |
Ok well you're still a punk. Just not as bad. | ||
| Ratfink |
Riggggghhhtttt.... I'll be at your house around 9ish. | ||
| Bwesky |
Hey incog I'll prolly be riding back with you Friday | ||
| Ratfink |
So will I. Can we hold hands? Just wait till u see how sweet the HID light is! | ||
| Mr_incognito |
Sweet! I dont have to ride back alone tomorow night. BTW, I have some crap to do in the morning before we take off, so I wont be there until closer to 10 probably...just dont leave without me!....unless Bwesky and Fink are gonna hold hands on the way down there..in which case, go ahead without me. LOL | ||
| Ratfink |
Uhhhh no. Only the ride home. I heard he's kind of afraid to ride in the dark. | ||
| Ratfink |
And riding with duff at night means that we will have a signal for planes to find us if we get lost. | ||
| Duff24 |
Not afraid of riding, just afraid of doing ANYTHING in the dark with you! | ||
| Bearracing |
Ugh... still no word on my bike yet from Riverfront harley... They might have it ready friday morning.. But as of now im driving in my truck unless i hear other wise.. soo soo soo sad..Hope to meet a few of you in Joplin, if you see me.. grab me and say hello! | ||
| Dtx |
Man, sure wish I was riding my bike to Joplin tomorrow. Depending on how work goes tomorrow, I may drive the truck up in the afternoon (from Tulsa). For the ones riding, have a good trip and we may see you there! |
