Hi chuck, I got a 99 tls w/ 02 tlr motor. crank/no start the power connector looks clean. pump makes noise. spark may be weak? but its there. HELP

Chuck: Yeah I have the same problem. New plugs and clean all electrical until there is a good spark. My motor sat for a while so I opened it up and cleaned the stator and rotor -was a buildup on them.

the fighter looks bad ass! have you done anything to it lately?

Chuck: Thanks Solomon. I haven't done anything to it. I'm not getting spark at the moment and rewiring the harness.

Did TRE mod. Got better off idle and want to keep mod - but red FI light on tach lit and LCD flops temp and "FI" every ~5 sec. Heard of this? Ideas?

Chuck: Haven't heard of any common FI code issues from the TRE. You should put the bike in dealer mode to see what the code/ problem is. (how to retrieve code is in the FAQ on the TL page)

WANT TO CONVERT MY TLR/01 TO A SINGLE RADIATOR WITH AN OIL COOLER LIKE A TLS. ANY COMMENTS/SUGGESTIONS.

Chuck: Should be a fairly easy conversion. If you decide to sell the R stuff it will go quickly :)

Thanks for Plug suggestion! - front one was bad. Stator bad too-to be replaced.
? - clutch VERY sensitive, ~1/8 for engagment, is this typical?

Chuck: Your clutch is normal. You may want to flush it to regain some of your grab. Instructions are on this site :) Also do the electrical fix BEFORE investing in a new stator, again instructions within...

Hi Chuck
do you of an easy way to attach an on/off light switch to the bike? Cheers for your advice

Chuck: It seems lots of folks want to do this to shut the headlight off while starting. I have been hesitant to do this because the headlights are a critical system IMO and I don't like messing with them.

I may put up a mod page for this if I get around to it. It would entail adding a relay in line with the headlight fuse that is controlled by starter power. So whenever the starter is engaged it powers the relay to disconnect the headlight.
