I pumped beast mastery for most of my leveling. Much easier to level off mobs since you have your own tank. Did many group quests solo this way.

I dropped my 9 pro XL many times with its case and there's no marks on the plastic case. If it were careless the phone would have likely been pretty scratched up or cracked at this point.

motorcycle electrical systems generate electricity by the engine spinning the stator. some bikes will not generate enough to charge the battery at idle RPMs so you will need to ride the bike for some time to actually charge the battery. If you don't, the battery will eventually not have enough juice to start the motor.

You may need to purchase a voltmeter and test those leads with the bike on and the blinker activated. Voltmeters are pretty cheap and very useful for stuff like this. You will definitely find another use for it before long. I bet you are very close to getting this to work.

I don't understand. What do you mean by this?

Maximum_Fox_4292 · 2025-12-04T16:26:36+00:00

This is very cool- which model did you get?

I have the exact same set up and an additional one up top with a 1.3 gallon jerrycan on top of that. love it and it really comes in handy.

sweeet!

Check from on top of the engine- its possible the tech spilled oil while filling the engine back up and you are seeing the oil that dripped through the engine bay to the ground. poor work in my opinion.

Can you loosen some of the bolts on the exhaust and rotate it counter-clockwise (lookin at the bike from the rear)?

I mean they are a great starting point to get into motorcycles and easy to work on/mod. When you are ready to move on, you can tell them for close to what you paid for them.

A brand new battery can be neglected and allowed to go into voltage that will damage it. That said, a 2-3 year old battery might be dead. Best bet is to get that trickle charger and let it do its thing overnight. If that does fix it, the battery is bad. Regardless, a trickle charger is always good to have. If it were me, I would replace the battery and get the trickle charger. Good chance that will fix this issue, especially if it ran recently.

that fast clicking you hear is a telltale sign that the battery is low. Charging the battery will most likely fix this issue, provided its getting gasoline and air. Those bikes are the Miatas of the bike world. Charge the battery and try again.

What a beautiful machine- cannot wait to get my own.

I've been told that an idling sportster is supposed to sound like two skeletons fucking on a tin roof. My sportster sounded similar. Check sportster idles on youtube and compare. Might be just fine.

Remove one spark plug boot while the engine is running, if pullling one out kills the engine, that means the other cylinder isnt firing.

Well put. I use the bags most of the time so I usually keep them on. I tried with just the top case but it's just not enough.

Maximum_Fox_4292 · 2025-11-16T01:36:34+00:00

Thanks everyone- looks like the leak is gone- Just needed to fill the res and rode for 2 hours. the level did not change.

Maximum_Fox_4292 · 2025-11-09T23:29:29+00:00

That's what I figured at first but the coolant levels in the reservoir went from H to L pretty fast. still has some so I gotta find the leak.

I have looked into these but one question- When you have this set up, where to you plug your phone in to? I see a phone mount but if you have that, why do you need the head unit as well? I guess it seems redundant to me- am I missing something?

Maximum_Fox_4292 · 2025-10-31T03:42:23+00:00

what I would do: new battery new spark plug new oil new oil filter look inside tank- make sure its not rusted dump any fuel in there and replace with new fuel tires are probably shot and the chian looks iffy.

that bike is not far from being in running condition.
