Whew.. been busy at work. Yeah it's a stock motor. 103" . I'm not sure if they determined the no compression after the TB or not. The mechanic originally thought the TB was it and was gonna have me back on the road but then the service manager came and gave the bad news. He wanted to no who did my motor work and what kind of cams I was running. I told him I just had a lifter job and that the motor was stock. I love my bike but I may start looking for a upgrade. I kinda hate to do that because your rolling the dice no matter what you buy. I'll know something tomorrow. I sure hope the guys at Bumpus in Jackson TN know what they're doing.

I think your safe with the guys at Bumpus working on your bike. They've always taken good care of mine and gotten me back on the road quickly. Won't be cheap but dealers never are and will be done right based on my experiences with them.

on my older RK that I don't have anymore, when the fuel pump on start up sounded like garbage, it was the fuel pressure regulator bowl. The bowl is plastic and one of the dog ears broke.

Sorry to hear for your troubles and i hope you can get everything worked out. People think I'm crazy for getting the extended warranties, but I'm glad I do. Best of luck bro

Based on my recent experience, we are crazy not to get extended warranties.

Definitely, I had a thing for her too when I was a teen.

I'll probably regret saying this but when I got the bike I was trying to come up with a name and my girlfriend said Ginger. I was like dammit woman, you cant name my bike...lol. It's been Ginger ever since.
