Author Message   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - 01:28 pm:        Running on a new beefier server now! Also, I updated the title of this section.   Scotty_j Posted on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - 02:30 pm:        Frog, you sly little bastard. Well played!   Chippy Posted on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - 03:44 pm:        Way to go frank!   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - 06:41 pm:        True Story. I like it!   03worc9r Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 09:25 am:        When anyone ever asked what NEBO was, I had been telling them ....bike owners" for a while now.   Scotty_j Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 10:18 am:        I just tell 'em it's a bunch of fags. Like Jeff.   03worc9r Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 10:51 am:        Thats so nice of you! I still remember the first day we met....   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 12:19 pm:        Unless they own a Buell, I send them elsewhere. Most bike riders don't wear blinders, or drink old kool-Aid that others try to preach is superior to other brands...   Scotty_j Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 01:07 pm:        That's how the giraffe rolls, bitch.   Chippy Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 01:53 pm:        kool aid? i should introduce you to some ktm enthusiasts. those cats are nuts. the bmw thing is more of a wardrobe thing than an obsession, those guys just rock all the bmw gear/swag all the time.   Scotty_j Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 03:09 pm:        Hey, I only got ONE t-shirt, and they gave me that when I bought it. I think once you hit your third brand of bike you puke all of the kool-aid up and don't really givashit anymore.   Chippy Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 03:25 pm:        you don't have a bmw 'stitch yet? who are you?   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 03:33 pm:        He bought all the riding suits & farkle before the bike. He was forced into the brand.   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 08:08 pm:        well...Surgery 6:30 in the morning for me.... lets get this sh!t over with! 1-2 day stay in the recovery unit. Hopefully they can still use the pieces in there, or I'll be getting a partial shoulder replacement. F.M.L.   Chippy Posted on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 09:06 pm:        Uh, just tell them to hack it off and splice on a fancy prosthetic. Good luck mang.   Scotty_j Posted on Thursday, July 22, 2010 - 07:47 am:        -Terminator style. That would the most awesomest.   03worc9r Posted on Thursday, July 22, 2010 - 04:21 pm:        Good luck with surgery Eric. Hopefully this will save you trouble later on. Anyone up for ride on Sunday? Maybe we can plan ahead before server goes down again.   Darren_xb Posted on Thursday, July 22, 2010 - 08:20 pm:        Sun Lowell's 9am   Scotty_j Posted on Friday, July 23, 2010 - 09:47 am:        Meh. Got stuff going on.   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Friday, July 23, 2010 - 05:15 pm:        ...

Ride safe.   Blue_pipe Posted on Friday, July 23, 2010 - 10:47 pm:        I might be up for a sunday ride. Where's Lowells?   03worc9r Posted on Saturday, July 24, 2010 - 07:04 am:        http://www.lowellsrestaurant.com/   Ustorque Posted on Saturday, July 24, 2010 - 10:22 am:        I got some serious issues with the old shittyX boys, someone help me here! While commuting home about 2 months ago at highway speeds my bike began to form a stumble. It appeared to be when the throttle was held in any constant position. It was not changed by speed or RPM or gear. If the throttle was held at any one constant position it would begin to stumble. I suffered through 30+ miles of constantly varying the throttle to keep it smooth until i got home. I assumed i'd start simple so I performed a TPS reset and then took her for a 20 minute ride and all was well again. Problem solved! not quite! The next morning on the way to work about 30 minutes into my hour and a half commute it started again same as before. Constant throttle, any speed, any RPM. Once again i did the TPS and things clear up, but only for about 10 minutes this time and then symptoms returned. Over the last month i have checked a few common things intake, throttle butterfly, grounds, wiring harness. NEW AS OF THIS WEEK! I was on vacation last week and did not ride at all(very sad)due to the stumble. When i got home on monday from work i decided to ride no matter what the condition. I left my driveway made it about a half mile and the bike began to stumble so bad it was almost unrideable. I rode home and did the TPS once again hoping to get it back, but that was not the case. I did the reset and started the bike to set the idle. I set idle at around 1K and unhooked from my laptop. Over the next 20-30 seconds my bike slowly went form 1k up to 3k all by itself then down to about 600rpm then back up again. I got on and figured id go up the road......bad choice it does the same thing while riding!!! I decided to pull the race ecm and pop back in the stocker, just to rule it out as the culprit. Symptoms are the same. At this point I just wish it would throw a code, because i'm at a loss! I'm leaning heavily towards a bad TPS, But id prefer not to start replacing parts at random and hope for the best. Maybe i've overlook something. any help would be great, thanks boys!   Chippy Posted on Saturday, July 24, 2010 - 11:12 am:        Do you have a breather reroute? If not, every time a drop of oil falls in there the motor stumbles. I already told you to light that thing on fire.   Ustorque Posted on Saturday, July 24, 2010 - 11:25 am:        reoute is already done so it isnt that. This thing is F*CKIN violent!not a slight stumble.   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Saturday, July 24, 2010 - 11:46 am:        ...
