Robust. Precise.

Second project today was foot rests. My trike doesn't have crash/engine bars so the standard highway foot rest don't work. Ciro makes a great product that replaces the front floor board support. The new support is really beefy and fit well. A chrome arm attaches to new bracket that holds the foot pegs. First impression, I love them. They might need some moving to find the perfect spot. They adjust on three different axis so you can position as you please. I'm normally not impressed easily by aftermarket parts, but these are heavy duty, nice chrome and fit is perfect.

Old bracket vs new

I finally got around to changing trans/primary oil with Lucas synth and it is quite a noticeable difference.
Shifting is more firm and not as mushy. Well worth the money!

lucas brand means quality for sure.

I've got several multiple day trips coming up so I'm doing a few comfort mods. I've got to put some miles on with the foot rest and figure out the most comfortable position.

I am ordering the parts for my charging system. Gasp...I did the stator, rotor and regulator in Amazon cheap parts. Should I get all three again and does anybody have quality part sources for these? I ain't cheaping out no more.

If you went with a cheap Amazon charging kit last time, I suggest you go with all three quality parts this go around.

Bike is 2 years old tomorrow. Got the ABS system flushed.

Been having a wierd high idle problem ever since I had the wide band O2 system installed back in November.
Didn't really be an issue until I rode for more than an hour, more often this last week, so I had them take a look at that on the last warranty day.

Turned out to be bad intake seals to the heads, both sides.
Wierd that it showed up after the Wideband O2 system install.
Coincidence I guess.

Now that the warranty is out and it has a clean bill of health, it's time to do the Fuel Moto PowerVision flash.

nothing much. put new batterys in fobs for both bikes and stowed last years for spares. i used a spare once at texas twister when al's fob went dead. they should last several years but i i'm pretty sure most of us change them annually. also i notice a while back engine idle management system was disabled. i keep them enabled all the time so i changed that back. try as i might i could not think of anything maintenance wise anything else that needs done. knock on wood. cold again for a week. i gotta think of something to do in shop. hasta.

Waiting for the green lights now........

One amber, one blinking green... fingers crossed.

Not me! I like to live dangerously (like the guy in the State Farm commercial). But I did change mine out earlier this year cause my garage door opener's battery was dead dead. So I put fob battery in the opener and put fresh battery in fob.
