Thanks Mike,
I tried to look her up in the member list but didn't see her. Hoping she runs across this.

Thanks everyone.
Mike, you are correct... there is no camber adjustment... just wondering if there was a spec. camber measurement from the factory. And there seems to be a little difference between...

Thanks for the replies... I'll go with the 165/60's
Mike, what kind of alignment problem would cause both tires to wear on the outside edges?
I have the Baja Ron shock adjusters and was wondering...

Hope I'm not hijacking this thread... I'm trying to decide what size tire to put on the front of my 2017 RT.
I'm going to try the Vrendestein Q5. Several people here have gone to 165/60... but I'm...

stmike, that is a great idea... I'll have to remember that.

Well I put 120 miles on the bike today. No problems.
I guess I'll put the body panels back on and just hope the problem(s) never return.
How long are the codes stored in the system?
When things...

I guess I jumped the gun thinking the trailer wiring harness was the culprit.
I had forgotten to connect it to the battery before testing it. When connected to the battery it does not cause a...

Well, everything is working properly at the moment... I may have found the problem... keeping my fingers crossed.

Since the day/running lights were acting weird I disconnected the plugs going to...

More wrinkles...
With F1 fuse pulled I can step on the brake pedal and the Day/Running Lights light up. I can also connect the tail light assemblies... step on the brake pedal... the brake lights...

Thanks Joel,
Yes, I do have a brake light on the trunk. That was one of the first things I disconnected... along with the trailer harness... just to eliminate those possibilities from the start.

Will try to check those things the next time I'm working on it.

Thanks

Idaho,
Yes I do have a shop manual.
I haven't seen the brake lights work since I limped it home the other day... so I don't know when they stopped working.
I'll have to wait until I get more fuses...

With two more fuses left I did the following:
Unplugged the connectors to the [Brake Light Switch & the Low Pressure Switch... started the engine... Hazard Lights worked and NO blown fuse in F2...

Thanks Idaho,
I don't know if the hazard lights worked or not... I didn't think to try them.
I am out of fuses... ordered a supply this evening... I'll have to wait a couple of days before I can...

OK
I removed the body panels.
No sign of mouse chewed wires.
I have a trailer wiring harness installed so I unplugged that to rule out any problems with that.
Re-installed the battery and a...

Thanks Doug... but I don't suspect rodent damage at all. I've never seen any evidence of mice in the place where I keep the bike... but that is something to keep in mind. I suspect a brake switch or...

Looking for some help.

2017 RTS SE6 8000 miles

Bike ran fine when last ridden 3 months ago. Had to replace the battery before going for a ride today (Yuasa battery went bad after only 11...

On a 2017 RT-S you turn the piston clockwise (facing it) to retract it .

Turning it counterclockwise will cause you lots of grief... ask me how I know :-)

Turn it clockwise to retract it.

Bump :helpsmilie:

Does anyone know where I can get the paint code for the black (charcoal) wheels on a 2017 RT-S?
Thought about bead blasting and painting the wheels on a Bushtec trailer to match the wheels on the...

pjweimer,
Did you have any trouble connecting both the GearBrake and the TricLED's together? Did they both have the OEM "plug n play" connectors?
I'm planning to use the Gearbrake module in...

Has anyone used the GearBrake (Smart Brake Light Module)
I'm interested in the "Flashing" model.
Wondering if they activate (flash) too much and annoy people following you.

I was curious as to how far I could go after the Low Fuel Light came on.
I took a small can of gas with me and ran our 2017 RTS until it quit.
Went 45 miles after the light came on.

Highwayman,
The link you gave leads to a website that sells a GoldWing 1500 vent.
Do you know if the curvature of that vent matches the RT windshields?
Thanks

I'm planning to put one of the GoldWing style vents on my 2017 RT.
I see there are vents listed for the GW1200, 1500 and 1800.
I'm assuming there might be a difference in the curvature of the...
