Most states that have the non steady flash law are 5 flashes and then steady red. If you don't change it over to this, don't go to California. They will be more than happy to reward you with an expensive piece of paper! And you don't move you bike until you unhook them.

I am a Odyssey PC 680 fan. Mine has been in the bike for over 8 years now and still starts the bike like the day I put it in. I have even killed it twice by leaving the ignition switch on in the ACC position by mistake. Charged it back up and it is still going strong. I had one in a Suzuki that was ...

Check to see if there are any salvage yards around. Not sure how popular the wing is in Australia, but you might find a compressor there.

You would be better off picking up a complete compressor off E Bay. Otherwise you would need to put a air stem on the compressor line. Way easier to just get a newer compressor. I looked at the parts fiche, and there are no internal parts listed for the compressor. You need to purchase the complete ...

Agree with the other posts. The carb float is sticking or the valve is not seating correctly to shut off the fuel. I had this happen on a ATV carb I just rebuilt. It eventually sealed. With replacing your jets. Was the slow jet a #55? That is what Honda replaced the stock #50 with when they did the ...

Look for a referb Zumo. They are waterproof and sealed for dust. They are also built for the road shock on a bike. Mine (550) is about 15 years old now and still going strong. Because it is waterproof you can use it when it is raining. With a car unit in a case, you can't use the touch screen if you...

Another vote for the Odyssey. The one in my 1500 fits perfect. It is going on 8 years old and still starts the bike like the day I put it in. I have even killed it twice by leaving the key on in the Acc. position. Just charged it back up and it was as good as new.

Another vote for the isolator. You just need to make sure it is not converting a 5 wire system down to a 4 wire. You trailer is a 5 wire system. Also, get rid of the adapter you have that is going from the flat to round plug. Just put the round plug on the trailer and call it good. Just one less thi...

I have not seen an "Idiot Light" for a wing yet. You will need to go with a digital gauge like Joe is showing. I have the digital one from Electrical Connection. It is plug and play and is mounted behind the left speaker grill. It is always visible at a quick glance. https://electricalconnection.com...

A syphon pump can found at Wal Mart, Harbor Freight, or your local auto parts store to remove the old fuel. For all of these methods of removing the rust, you will need to remove the tank. You need to dump everything out of the tank while flushing the crud out. The best way to do that is by turning ...

And after you change the belts, turn the motor over by hand. Put a socket wrench on the crank bolt to turn it over. One of my first bikes sat for a long time. One of the valves stuck in the open position when I was turning it over by hand. If I would have used the starter, that valve would have been...

On your 88 carb, by switching the main jet from a 50 to a 55 will solve the stumble. You do not need to replace the whole carb. My bike did not get the recall done back in the day. I just switched the jets and it solved the problem. The bike had no stumble at all after the switch. The only other thi...

6 years for a Oddssey is nothing. Mine is 8 years old and still going strong. I have even killed it twice by not turning the key off all the way. I drained it down in the ACC position. With keeping it on the maintainer, it should go at least 10 years. I normally get at least 8 years off a non Oddsse...

My 88 did something similar. Take it apart and clean out the grease that is in there. When it get's old, it gets sticky and the switch will not move like it should. Get some Dielectric Grease from your local auto parts store. It is in a small tube. Clean out the old grease, put in new, and you will ...

This is what I have been using. Same blue stuff that Honda cars are using and I can get it at Wal Mart. So far, so good, no issues to report.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010HM43RQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_JI4.Cb81NQ7JP I didn't know one could get a 1/2 amp fuse, let alone an 1/8. You are not going to find it at the auto parts store! You will need to go to a business that deals with electronics to find one. Your best bet would be E Bay or Amaz...

I have an XM modulator. You un plug the bike radio antenna wire, plug in the XM modulator wire into the radio antenna jack, then plug the bike antenna into the modulator. There is a wire that then goes to the XM radio. I do not have to turn the modulator on or off. When set the radio to 88.5, it com...

[/quote] The songs must be in MP3 format. The bike will not recognize MP4 songs at all. [/quote] MP4 is used on Apple products and thier Apple Play. If that is where he is getting his music from, he will need to use a converter to go from MP4 to 3. I had no problems coping songs from the Microsoft p...

I've done the seafoam thing on several units and it just never worked and honestly once I pulled the pilot jet out and ran a wire through it. I don't see how seafoam could have dissolved the clog? Once everything is at least running then I agree seafoam or anything else helps alot. I think the only...

Agree with Mh434. Any alternator shop should have one in stock and can put it in for you.

Instead of pulling the injectors, put some fresh fuel in and use Sea Foam for a couple of tanks. Use 2 oz. per gallon and do it for a couple of tanks. The ECM reset as Keith has described is also a good idea. See if that works.

I have a 1988 1500 with 44,000 mi. I put a LAlectric alternator on it. When idling it makes a knocking sound. Has anyone else had this happen? I put a LAlectric on my 88 and it did the same thing even with new dampers installed. My OEM alternator just needed cleaning so I put it back in. I had the ...

Did Avon re design the Cobra yet? My rear blew out at 70 mph due to the tire separating. It only had about 7 K miles on it. Tire pressure was at 41 and the bike was not overloaded. The front was fine, but I get much better millage with a Bridgestone 709 then I did out of the Cobra front. Because of ...

I use a Ultraguard half cover when I travel. It has been a great cover for the past 4 years.

http://wingstuff.com/products/163-ultra ... m_search=1

It can be very windy in SD. More than likely the bike would have been blown over with a half or a full cover!

I had the same problem with my 88. I tried to take the assembly apart, but the plastic is old enough and brittle, the holding tabs broke. I ended up getting a used one off E Bay and sprayed a bunch of CRC electrical contact cleaner in there to prevent the problem. So far so good. I would still try t...
