  1. Best of ALL worlds is my 07 2Valve NORGE...
  2. I split lanes for 25 years up and down the I5 corridors in SoCal 100+ miles a day with an open faced helmet and levi jacket... Today with the texting and obnoxious drivers I spend less and less time on the road (Freeway) here in Western WA and my yearly mileage has gone down as my age has gone up for various reasons.
  3. Yes Pete I have a good YTX-20 battery installed less than a year ago and kept on maint charger. I know electrons on this bike are unusually finicky. I have checked with running at idle and high rpm and off voltage. Although Vroomhilda never shows more than 13.2 running when the digital voltage meter always shows more. Somewhere in the snaggle of wiring there is a drop in voltage from age I would imagine and other assorted fuckery.
  4. I just want a back up Starter L5A Relay just in case - as I just lat week had to replace the Auxiliary 4 pin Horn relay & fuse the previous owner installed for both the yellow wire and fused connection to the battery, and the same relay is also using the horn. Along with the back up L5A relay I believe after spending far too long reading and researching this woe beset upon by most CARC owners, I am going to install an easy to reach Solenoid to automotive button to battery+ bypassing all the spaghetti wiring, ecm, and relays as a defensiveback up emergency starter. Thanks for leaning in Pete & Docc and everyone else. Yes I will order from MPH or AF1 for the back up relay just in case.
  5. Has anyone ever Located a Norge or Carc substitute Starter Relay on Amazon?
  6. Since it works as is I have no plans to change the OS even as I am behind and it is no longer supported.
  7. I am running O/S Catalina also on my 2010 Macbook and I had no problems hooking up to my 07 Norge...
  8. Or for rear suspension replace stock shock spring with an Eibach rear shock spring like on mine + reworked front fork Matris suspension kit makes it a wholly different bike as it is on my 07 Norge. Then reset the SAG.

  10. Really does make a difference. Recent purchase of my 48,000 Mi 07 Norge and while I love it and it reminds me of riding in the 1970's bike, it felt kinda raw and in a torquey tractor way, powerful. Finally got around to having decent 40ish degree F sunny weather to get into the garage to do my first CARC Throttle body balance and TPS reset using new tools on Hi Ho Silver w/48,000 Miles. With my new Carbtune in hand and Guzzidiag connected I got'er done. S M O O T H... even as it was not that far out of compliance and pretty easy to do now in the rear view mirror. Would have been very challenging to accomplish it without A LOT of reading, some new tools and guiding insight from some very helpful individuals who write directions quite well. Something very difficult to do.
  11. It's true about changing out the fluid. My 07 Norge clutch was working fine but too close to end of lever for my comfort to feather it. Flushing and filling with new Dot 4 brought back "Crisper" feed back.. Helped. I love the sound of the dry clutch rattle when I pull in the lever.
  12. As a new Norge owner I struggle with this myself. I am am looking to order one like this. This I understand make is easier. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G5QSQFQ/ref=ewc_pr_img_1?smid=AS1QLBO8QPN9Z&psc=1.
