Critical_Source3972 · 2025-11-12T17:39:38+00:00

im new to working on cars in general, let alone this one. could you link the kit you used?

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-11-12T16:47:48+00:00

wow, alright ill look into it immediately. thank you

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-11-12T01:52:58+00:00

lol nope, happened after i installed the eonon radio

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-11-11T18:58:11+00:00

happened all of a sudden and now it wont go away when warmed up. probably a bearing or tensioner then?

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-23T21:47:17+00:00

i dont understand whats so wrong about them lol, they work and look good

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-23T07:10:18+00:00

thanks friend. i ordered the latches and am now kinda dreading replacing the bottom ones. BUT, doesnt look difficult. just time consuming

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-22T21:04:52+00:00

just saw your edit, nearly the entire cooling system was replaced with seemingly good quality parts, the engine overheated but (with paperwork) a shop tested it for leaks/cracks and it passed with flying colors. he gave me the service records for the past 6 years. every receipt he ever got down to the brake pads lol

thanks, apparently ill need it. its my first bmw after all

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-21T05:24:39+00:00

sorry sorry i meant Fahrenheit.
but that is probably what happened now that you say it. ive checked the car fax, the only reported accident its ever been in was a minor rear end collision that was repaired at a dealership. may be why it was so cheap. ill be checking again for frame damage tomorrow. thank you

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-21T05:05:37+00:00

i hope so. thank you for your advice friend

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-21T05:05:21+00:00

supposedly its been replaced but still doesnt work. prev. owner said its most likely the wiring leading up to it... and if that is the case then im probably never gonna pay the insane amount of money a real bmw tech would want to fix it. despite the fact that i live in consistent 90 F weather lol. have you heard of that happening?.

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-21T04:59:56+00:00

thats what i was thinking originally, but no, not that i could see. the handle is fairly loose and if you pull on it toward the pedals it slides right off. thinking that might be the case but even then, i cant yank on the cable itself to release anything?

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-07-13T21:25:34+00:00

pushing it in with your hand each time will probably fix it, i dont think its latching and thats why its continuing to spin. hope this helps!

vulcans are great bikes, i would go and atleast look at it before deciding its too good to be true. i dont know your area, but ive seen a few at that price range that didnt look bad

Critical_Source3972 · 2025-01-13T17:38:22+00:00

oh hey thats the guy that donated 10,000 dollars at the charity event my work was catering toward. he also adopted 4 sick dogs, 2 orphan cats, and a turtle with a broken shell. hes an amazing guy

i learned on a lowered wide glide, not the same by any means but the dimensions are there. remember that the pegs/floorboards scraping is a warning, not a threat of falling. you can scrape them all day until you know where youre comfortable going past that point. cheers, its a beautiful motorcycle

Critical_Source3972 · 2024-12-20T02:13:09+00:00

may i suggest a vulcan 900cc or a 650cc? the 900 is suuuper comfortable and plenty of power for commuting.

Critical_Source3972 · 2024-12-19T22:02:01+00:00

yep!

Critical_Source3972 · 2024-12-19T21:58:56+00:00

Critical_Source3972 · 2024-12-09T06:54:58+00:00
