It's call a Road Glide [sm=happybounce.gif]just kidding! I'd wrap a piece of 1/8" flat stock around the problem area, weld the break like Bryan said then gusset it with the flat stock and weld it, that should solve the problem, ortry Road Glide option, same color though because it's KILLER!!! Sharp bike fryeca, when you're ready to do the I-Pod thing givemy mountsa look

Just got my bike back this week. Both brackets were broken and chapped my wires. 6 in all had to be heat shinked. Not a good situation when these brackets break and skin up your wiring.

Default memory fuse

Funny how the dealership has never heard of these common problems.

I too have a blown memory fuse. Replaced it and it worked for a few minutes.

thought I had it fixed so I didn't watch it closely. Not sure if it blew when I started it or turned on the switch - maybe even rode it. Get some more fuses and try to isolate the failure point.

Put in a new battery (HD) recently - how could taking off the seat, as someone asked, be a problem?

Thanks

Radio memory fuse blew on my 07 ultra. Used the forum advice. Pulled the Fairing and found a very small frayed wire on the radio line just as the forum suggested. A little electrical tape and it is good to go! Thank you forum!!!

Anyone else have a similar problem or fix?
Hey did you ever figure out what the issue was? My 07 StreetGlide is doing the same thing and I looked behind the fairing and couldn't find anything. Let me know please I'm at a loss
