    Question. You did the hemi and im doing a LS. Where did you get the 12 volts off the switch to fire injectors? My 86 wiring bulkhead is different than the 87 we did LS couple years ago. Cranks with the switch but when I cut the key off it doesn't kill the power completely . Engine is slow to cut off . Yes. People post on Market place but evidently don't really want to sale it.

    • @TermiteOffroad
      @TermiteOffroad 3 дня назад

      I’ll have to go back in notes to see which wire from the bulkhead it was exactly. I used Sublimes quick run harness and it was a simple hook up to that. I’ll check tomorrow and let you know. 👍

    I have a Redhead on Radio Flyer. No issues with almost 35K miles on it. Initially, I noticed a bit firmer steering feel than what I prefer in a vintage ride, but I got used to it. I feel your frustration. In the middle of installing the A/C back in. For the last 3 weeks......... Fighting the flare fittings at the evap core. The seats look pretty rough for a new flare. Looks like poor quality control. Ended up ordering a second one. Will be using the coated cone washers on the new install. Never have had issues with flare fittings til this thing. I am so over this job. I'm in the middle of remodeling our bedroom and need the Wag to pick up some trim boards since it is frequently raining and the wag is the only vehicle with the size to haul them in the dry. Figured it would be a quick, one week process since I had new everything. Nope. I feel that quality control is lacking or non-existent any more. Especially noticed this on generic replacement or reman parts. It seems you have to spend big $$$ on "upgraded' parts to get quality, when that level of quality was originally built into the old part. Yep. There's a reason I call it Fakebook Marketflakes. Noticed that as well. You at least got a response. I try to straight up schedule a meeting time. Freaking crickets..... Good luck on your upcoming big trip! It is a major feeling to know a ride you built did something like that.

    • @TermiteOffroad

      Yeah that’s a very familiar story, this should only take a couple days 😂. It’s kinda become the norm unfortunately. Sounds like you got it figured out though which is good. If this steering box continues to hold I’m gonna run it for a while. I’d rather put the money towards getting the cruise control figured out!

    So i have previously looked as you well know at all 3 of those bikes.. I would say get the crf 300l rally. Heres my reasonings. The cb500x and trans alp is both 100 pounds more than the xr and 300. The 300 is the samish price as the 500x where as TA is a few thousand more. The HP difference on the 300 and XR is you lose only 8 HP. Glad the adjustments worked though. P.s. i completely understand the spider deal!!

      The only part they recommend is the intake if you had engine failure due to metal possibly getting trapped in the intake. I didn’t have total failure so they told me I’m good to just clean it good. I’m just over 20k on mine and all is well!

    Look at the Kaplan video more closely. They never got the fueling under control before blaming the XR's Only header. It was especially bad in the midrange which they made a big deal about. "5hp down"...you don't just lose 11% of your power on that engine by having a header that much bigger than stock. You *do* lose 10% by having the mixture as rich as they did.

    Up here in New England almost any ride involves mud and it usually cakes in every nook and cranny of the bike. I also do all my own repairs and maintenance and I can't deal with working around dirt. So almost every ride the bike gets washed with a low pressure spray to get the heavy stuff off. Then I spray the entire bike down with Spectro Motorcycle Wash, let it work a few minutes, then rinse the remaining dirt off. When dry, I use Tusk gloss on the plastics and WD40 on the chain and moving parts.
