    Bob, I bought a 2002 800 classic with 29K miles. On my way home from the purchase it overheated. This was after about 35 miles at 75 MPH in 90 degree heat. I stopped at a cycle dealer and we checked coolant. It was full. I made it home after another stop for it to cool (another 25 miles) and then made it home. I tested the thermostat and it opens at 140 ish. I found the radiator was a bit plugged when I ran water from the top house down. I removed it and ran the hose through the bottom and some crud came out. Now water flows through from the top fine. What is the best way to test to see if I have fixed the problem? Long ride?

    I also found a strange looking connector not attached to anything down by my oil filter. The wire from it runs up to under the gas tank where it plugs into the harness. Any idea what this is? Oil pressure?

    Hi Bob...I would like to inquire about wheels for my 2003 800A. Do you have anything on hand? Do I need to locate them and send them to you for machine work? Please let me know how to go about it...I want to mount a 180 on the back if possible so let me know if it will work with what you do.

    Bob, I was wondering if you would be willing to share info on fitting those rims to a 2005 vulcan classic. I would like to go to one piece rims and Those look like a nice fit, very well done.
