Attached a pic awaiting approval. I pulled out the rubber at the bottom on the gas tank bolt hole. It definitely looks like it belonged there.

Helicoil on the tank bolt?posted in Ask a Question!
Th zip tie will probably be fine...but in case it's not, the bolt hole is stripped out for the tank on my 06 vt600. Would a helicoil be the right fix for this? also, there's rubber at the bo...

Honda shadow vlx 600 won't crank at all.posted in Ask a Question!
Have you tried hooking up the battery to a charger or jumper just to try it out? While it's a 12v battery, it should usually be a little over 13 when everything's off. This gives it the extra juice...

Evening update since I can't go to sleep when shits funked up: I already cut the neutral light out, and putting it on the battery while removed from the bike, dropped the voltage from 13 to 11. So ...

Yeah the reg/rec was bulged and cracked on the back so I'm gonna get a whole new one from Rick's. If I have the bike when the new harness fails, I'll probably hardwire it like you do.

Replacement regulator rectifier.posted in Ask a Question!
God damn, oem is expensive on those. Over $300 for mine. I know oem is king, but would you trust an aftermarket reg/rec to do the job?

Parasitic Amp Draw?posted in Ask a Question!
Just did my first longer ride on the bike and got home to it smelling like rotten eggs! I read that that's a symptom of a battery becoming overcharged, so I'm hoping that confirms its reg/rec that'...

Parasitic Amp Draw?posted in Ask a Question!
Hell yeah thanks for the rec man. I'll play around with it. I definitely don't have any accessories on the bike, so reg/rec might be the culprit.

Hoping it's just a bad battery, because I'm so tired of fucking with wiring right now, I just want to ride. but my battery is dying after about 3 days of not running. I just did an amp draw ...

I don't think it'll be too hot for glass. Just keep it protected from rocks.

Keyless Gas Cap for the Shadow?posted in Ask a Question!
I'll buy the prototype right now! Lol but seriously 😳 they would sell really well. Anyone that keeps the oem tank but bobs or chops will want one.

Tuning velocity stacks 2006 600posted in Ask a Question!
Did you try just one shim on the needle? How sure are you that you're rich and not lean? Is there a strong gas smell? Did you tune the idle first, then get the idle speed right, then move onto midr...

Keyless Gas Cap for the Shadow?posted in Ask a Question!
Anyone have any recommendations for a keyless gas cap? I already bypassed the ignition, been trying to find a direct replacement for the oem keyed gas cap.
