I wonder if it is like the saying " what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas"....  I think it is a body  , gotta wonder about people from rural Ohio. 

Hey troll  I will be hiking in Gatlinburg mon and tues. I would like to make the run to the tail of the dragon wed  if it is still on.

That easy of a read I  am . I am prior student and still live here .Hope he gets the best out of the school , it must have helped me I am now the lead tech for the int dealership. That was my dream vehicle and bike ,I have both now and living the dream.

Man u know what I  need thanks . I was lookin for a  hour I figured it went there but don't want to make a mistake .

I don't have a manual and I  need some help .A washer fell onto the floor when I  pulled cover while doing my clutch . I think the washer came from a small idler gear with a bearing in the front cover , if this is correct please let  me know .

Still not sure why it did not vent down, vent line is open .Sometimes things just dont go my way.i  just say errrrrr and put it in the back of my mind for next time.

Diesel tech for 20 years now ase master advanced level specialist. retirement is not in sight  ,gonna die some day with a wrench in hand tryin to fix the world 1 truck at a time. we just got purchased by  a mega dealership .I am learning new words like H R  who would have ever thought.

put mine up on the jack last week (fyi filled it up last week  got warm in garage you know what happened next gas expanded and bubbled up paint) .What a bad way to learn .

No low coolant  and just switched to t6 rotella

The problem for me is I got the bike in march no probs till about oct , after bike sat for 4days it locks clutch hard  now  it sets  overnite it locks .I just got bike back from dealer recall done and oil change dealer thought clutch issue could be the oil I was running syn mobil v twin 20w 50.  I did not want bike to set all winter with a little slime in the eng .Is there any thing i can do for this issue or mods i should do  with the cover off the clutch this winter , anything with existing clutch plates or replace them(was thinking moisture is causing sticking)  any advise sure would help thanks

I have noticed alot of condensation in window, so i canged oil and rode it hard still has condesation  and clutch is sticking so hard , I have to move bike back and forth 2 feet before it frees up .is there a clutch pack i can put in to help with this or some kind of mod .Kinda embarassing having to drag my bike back and forth in front of my  harley freinds just to ride it home . I pulled clutch cover down to clean out oil goo and want to replace anything now . bike only has 6700 miles. Maybe since I only ride  6 miles a day I need a block heater for my bike  and my truck .

Well back on track got my bike back today the recall changes the head for oil filter on the block  and now uses a catrige type filter that is how you will know if recall is done. Looks like I need to go back to dealer and return the spin on they sold me prior.   that is the 2003 1500 recall

Sorry CANADA  ( I hope still my freinds to the north ) did not realize I was picking on anybody. I am no good at grammar  nor will I ever be . I will always do my best to screw up spelling and punctuation I hope u all will still  love me anyway ......                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Just joking down here after it has been 0 deg for awhile 39 seems like a heat wave in spring but for now it is too cold for me to grovel at my dealer to give back my bike , they can keep it in the heated shop. Still yet to hear back from them , seemed like a simple recall. not sure on filter cheif they sold me a 1604 ?  thought it was a 999?? sorry not sure on #'s  . I asked service dept guy if that was the correct filter he says they are about all the same for the product line . i don't trust  the parts dept not the first time with wrong parts . sad only my sec trip to this dealer .

I know if I lived in canada I probly would be in  shorts and a t-shirt at this temp . 

Took bike to dealer for oil filter recall  it will be a couple days i was told , that was a week ago . Now wouldn't you know it would be 78 deg that week . Still waiting to get my bike back  it is 39 deg now so i probly will hear from them soon. nothing to do now but whine and cry online    :' ( 

thanks all,  just gettin use to the quarks  the stuck plates caught me off gaurd at 5 am I thought I pulled brake lever not clutch when it stalled. that is a wake up call for sure  took me a couple seconds to figure out i did every thing i should have done

I  started it in nuetral as usual pulled clutch in and shifted to 1st gear it lunged and stalled . has not done it again this week . ran in the rain 3 times lately gonna swap out oil  when i stop by my kaw shop . pics ?  just figured out how to post more hands on kinda person. bike is totaly stock for now but in the future will love to put some mods on.

got it in march 4000mile  now it has 6500 miles clean window till recent . no major coolant loss . not much moisture in oil only cloudy window noticed it when my clutch did not release after setting for 4 days . 20 yr diesel tech I know what moisture does to rods ( not to sure on bikes but I want to stop it before I  damage it). just lookin for anypoint were a very small amout of coolant can pass to oil that is common to a cow .also not to side track but i always do the recall for 03's isit just an oil filter if so do i need to buy it or can i get a k&n 204.

just figured out how to post finally yahoo, got this bike in march (been wanting 1 forever) here is what i've got . a week ago noticed foggy sight glass ran it for 30 miles and glass was clean upon return as it cooled it fogged up again ,now i am getting moisture on fill cap . is the water pump the only thing that i should be looked into
