    Help, think my rec/reg is toast

    During a ride last weekend the bike died and wouldn't restart. Turns out the batt was dead. Charging system fuse was blown. Put in a new fuse......flash! new fuse toast. Did some checkin', red wire from MikesXS p/n 24-2089 rec/reg is grounded. Pretty sure a grounded red wire is not good. That...

    Every time I click on the thread "0-rings head cover?" my computer locks up. When I exit this site the little box that contains the first few words of the thread that you get when you put your mouse arrow over the link stays on my wall paper and the only way to fix this is to restart my...

    Clutch squeals on take-off

    Just noticed this today on a short run to OSH. I was suprised I could hear it with my poor hearing and helmet on and loud pipes combined. 'Spose it's just being in tune with the bike. I know a new clutch is in the future (works OK, just want to put in Barnett pieces and check the throw-out...

    Master cylinder reservoir "diaper"

    Rear master res cap seems to be weeping on my tracker. It's the round plastic type. I've seen pics of what appears to be a terrycloth wrap, similar to a wristband, wrapped around the body of the res. Can't find these listed anywhere. anyone know where to get them?

    Why resistor spark plugs?

    The title says it all. I understand why we run resistor spark plugs in our cages with radios and all the computer what nots but on these ancient motorcycles wouldn't a non-resistor plug deliver more spark? I'm having starting issues and I'm working in several directions but this has bugged me...

    Clutch help

    Damn I hate to do this 'cause it seems like there's a thousand threads on this (I think I've read them all, too) but I'm gonna anyway. Before I take the clutch apart (and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to) I thought I'd pick y'all's brains. I didn't have this problem when I first finished the...

    Pamco Pete doesn't lie!

    Ever since I've got the tracker runnin' it's started pretty good but not consistently. Sometimes it's taken more kicks than I thought it should. Sometimes it's taken too long to warm up. I've known since the beginning the mechanical advance weights haven't "snapped" back the way Pete preaches to...

    Kill switch-help!

    Want to replace the kill switch on my tracker. Not too long ago on what I think was a build thread someone gave a link to a switch that mounted a lot like the levers do, that is two bolts that clamp the switch to the bars. Black it was (sounds like Yoda!). Just a 2 wire button on/off switch...
