Hey Chuck I really appreciate all of the information here. You do some really great work. I'm going to work on the TRE, and the air box mod (have an extra air box). Again Thanks,....Craig

Hey man, everyone talks about the "tapping" from these motors. Mine seems to be a good deal louder than I think may be normal. It's a metallic TAP/RAP from about 2,400-4,000, when floating (no load). The noise comes from the top of the front cylinder only, as far as I can tell.
Any thoughts? Normal or spun big bearing, allowing the piston to kiss the top??
Chuck: Could be a spun crank bearing but it could also be a bad exhaust gasket or more commonly the throttle body boots are loose or the throttle bodies are not seated |

Hey guys need some help!!! I am having a problem with fouling out plugs in my tl. I'll put new plugs in and it runs awesome for the fist ride and it will sit for a while after and then out of nowhere it wont start and fouls out the plugs!!! I have done the TPS sync and TB Sync, running NGK cr9eks in it, we switched out throttle bodies from my buddies that was running good and still same issue, even switched out ECM and still same Prob. Any help would be great!!! thanks
Chuck: Put the bike in dealer mode and check for codes. I would expect the air temp sensor or atmospheric pressure sensor to be out of whack since it sounds like your mix is way off |

Hi Chuck, I have 99 tlr that suddenly wont turn over. Switch on and all dash lights fine and the fuel pump primes, press start button and fuel pump relay clicks but the starter relay dosnt. Have replaced start relay and battery. Have tested every relay and switch I can think of...nothing wrong.Starter works if you run a direct lead. No fault code on dash. I dont seem to be getting power to start relay, how can i trace the prob. Thanks
Chuck: Maybe try putting 12v directly to the starter and see if it turns over. Rebuilding the starter usually makes the starter spin faster. I have also seen where the starter magnets break away from the inside wall causing serious issues. You may also want to try the electrical fix which eliminates the starter relay plug. That plug is usually the cause for the majority of TL electrical bugs |

Chuck looking for some advice on my TLR, its popping and virtualy unrideable when you go for throttle at low speed, between 2000 and 3000 rpms, it also momentarily cuts out then snaps on the fuel, checked everything bar changing electrical components? any advice. cheers.
Chuck: You will want to go right through the bike starting with dealer codes. You probably have a TPS issue or a vacuum leak |
