I still can't seem to find a text book style of adjusting the mixture screws on carbs. I've tried using the Colortune but when I turn the mixture...
As the days are starting to warm up I'm noticing that my Seca 550 doesn't quite sound as smooth during the day as it does on a cool evening. It's...
I used a dental pick. It turns out the connectors were melted to the plastic harness and were stuck in there.
Anybody have any “tricks” or can suggest some tools that can get the metal connectors out of the harness. I know there’s a little tab that needs...
Success! Not only that but the bike is charging better!!! I cleaned all the connections from the list up above from XJ550H. I did notice some...
Ha! Yes I do recognize you. I already changed the brushes and cleaned the copper rings and it did not change anything. I also changed the...
Update. It's not the RR. I'm curious about the diode block assembly? If this is faulty can it have an effect on the charging system?
My old charging problem has returned on my Seca 550. I didn't ride it for a week and when I turned it on, there it was. It idles fine at around...
I honestly don't know any epoxy's.
Could you recommend a good two part epoxy? Would JB Weld work?
I'm not sure what you mean by running out of throttle but the only issue I had with the throttle is that it would sometimes just not go when I'd...
Everything is stock so not worried there but now I'm curious if I should have modified things for the Kerker.
Happy 2020. Nice to be back on here. I finally found all the pieces to the exhaust and waiting on new gaskets. I've been using an old 4 into 1...
Any chance you're still selling the exhaust collector?
First I should say that all four lights are not running lights just the front two and yes they have been modded. I figured it all out and Im good...
Well this is kind of interesting because all four of my indicator lights turn on when I turn the key.
Hello. I'm having a little trouble trying to figure out how to replace the front left turn signal. The PO had changed it once before with a heavy...
Just wondering if anybody has the long bolt that holds the rear of the engine down to the frame? thanks
My Kerker is solid. No rust hole or whatever. I'm curious though if people are suggesting ways on how to quiet the muffler. Maybe I didn't do a...
It has a baffle and I packed the crap out of it.
Very tempting but I think I want to hold onto the Kerker. I actually only need the right muffler too as I have everything else. Thanks for the...
I STAND CORRECTED. It was in fact the starter motor. I bought a whole engine block off an old Maxim and have been using parts off of it so I...
Well, I have determined that the issue is not the starter motor staying engaged. I changed out the solenoid and I unhooked the starter motor while...
After removing the starter solenoid this little plug came out of nowhere. I cannot find the male. Does anybody know where this is suppose to go...
Hmmm, is that the only way? I'm reading things about bad relays, bad solenoids, ect. Is the starter solenoid and starter relay the same thing? If...
I still have yet to do the Seafoam clean but meanwhile is it possible the starter is staying in the "on" position making that ridiculous...
I kind of like the second way. It says to put one ounce of Seafoam per quart of oil. I'm also guessing that the second way means I wouldn't have...
Yes, the brushes and holders were all new as well as the battery.
Unfortunately, the charging system was never solved and is still weak. If I ride it for a few days without putting the trickle charger on it...
I have always had an issue with the charging voltage on this bike. After 15-20 minutes of riding the bike slowly reduces its charging output. I...
I thought of that so I opened the alternator housing to check if anything was loose and rechecked the torque spec that holds the rotor in and it...
Getting an intermittent screeching sound from my starter motor on my Seca 550. It first happens when I initially start the bike but quickly...
I have a Kerker 4 into 1 on my Seca but it's just too loud for me. If you have the original mufflers I'll take them.
Any chance the rear cowl is available?
I have the same 4 into 1 kerker. I'm guessing your bike is a little on the loud side?
This will be hard to describe in words but I feel it might be related to my idling issue. When I first start the bike the engine makes a high...
Will do. I'm curious if the heat has an effect on the idle as it's been very hot lately.
I started to have a small idling problem with my Seca 550. Assuming the bike is warmed up and have been riding for a while, if I pull up to a stop...
I think I might know what the issue is. As you see in the pic there are nicks on the chrome that go into the lower shock. However, when I took it...
Help! New fork seal still leaks. I attempted to change my fork seals and the job seemed pretty straightforward, however, the same exact fork...
Word
I guess another question to ask is if it is bad to park the bike in extreme heat or not regardless of my tank situation. Can prolonged exposure...
Would this have been avoided if the tank were only half full?
So, I filled my tank up the other day and I accidentally filled it up almost to the brim. Not thinking anything of it, I quickly returned home and...
I'm not sure who decides to delete threads but I wanted to start a thread about this since there is almost no information regarding how to do this...
That's exactly what I did and that got it out. The very carefully part is in question, however. I actually just used a nail and hammer to start a...
I changed the oil and adjusted the cable on a cold bike to 3mm free play as per the manual. It works fine now. It may have been a combination of...
Would anybody have some ideas on why my bike is having a bit of trouble getting into first gear? At first it was a little sporatic but now my Seca...
Is this the part you are referring to: HCP18762 Aftermarket crankshaft flange OIL SEAL, fits on the left end of the crank to the case on all...
Sorry for the blurry pic. I'm having an oil leak out of this little drain hole. Does anybody have any idea how to fix this?
