      Hey Chuck, Long time no be on here. I am back with a new baby to work on. I have a post in the buy sale trade forum. Looking for a set of factory forward controls from a 2002-2005 Dyna FXDWG in particular. Might you have anything in your inventories that would help?

      Hey Chuck, I private messaged Kenfuzed a day or two ago about this and haven't heard back. Maybe you have an answer for me. On the "Tech Tips" blog I am blocked from posting questions, comments or tips. It seems to be the only Blog that this happens to me. Why would that be?

      have you checked the output of the alternator with a volt meter??? put it on the battery while idling, then increase engine speed. the volts should go up to near 14.5. if not you still have a charging problem. i assumed you did this before changing parts. the regulator may be bad. the reason the bike ran ok for a while is it was running on battery charge. it is not being recharged by the bike. check that stuff and let me know.....also let me know if you get this, ok??

      Hey Chuck, wondering if you had any further issues. You responded to my thread about a possible bad stator on my wr450f. "So I put in a new battery, everything seemed to be cherry. Took it for a 60 mile ride, no issues. Hungout at destination for about 4 hours then headed home, this time needing my headlights seeing as it was dark. At mile 40, roughly, exact same issue. Bike was unable to run smoothly while the lights were on. Once i got home I stuck the battery on the trickle charger. At first the charger said battery was full, but when I checked this morning, its giving my the charging and charged signal, meaning the battery is probably gone bad again. I am in need of some desperate help, the stator and battery totalled me 220 bucks, and I cant keep doing that! Any ideas?".

      Also, sorry if you are seeing this twice, I am not sure that people who respond to my threads get a notification if i respond. Thanks for any advice, highly appreciated at this point.

      if it stops spitting with the enrichner pulled, that is a sign of running lean. check for intake leaks, wrong jet size in the idle circuit, air screw adjusted incorrectly. the needle under the float is not seating in the seat. they may need a good cleaning or replacement. easiest way to check a float is to remove it and shake it. if there is liquid inside it is bad........hope this helps. welcome to the forum

      I saw in a post where you asked the guy if "will it quit spitting with the enrichner pulled out a bit???" He didn't answer but my 98 FXD will. What does this mean? You responded to a post I had and said "your float is set to high" I took the bowl off and adjusted it so the float needle sat sooner and still have the same problem. Do floats go bad? Would I test it by putting it in water and looking for bubbles?
