no cruser 4 work !!! getting a cage,topic over!

[sharky]

Not sure I'm following the logic here mate...
Wife is complaining about the $80 a week on fuel plus you want the TLS off the road to 'fighter it...fair enough...
But why then spend 10k on something just to commute if you're trying to save money ?
Surely there's bikes out there that would fit the bill for a lot less...

[Hillsy]

What is your commute to work like? If you have to deal with any slow moving traffic / lane filtering you'll be regretting getting a cruiser within a fortnight.

Like sharky said, I'd be looking for a cheaper UJM option like a Bandit, FJ12, ZRX, XJR or whatever.

I rode my old Divi into the CBD every day for 2 years and put 500K's on it most weekends 2-up and it did it all without a hitch. Oil change every 5000k and a set of tyres once a year and it was the most economical bike I've owned for that kind of work.

just ride a pushy, way cheaper and so long as you dont wear lycra, heaps less gay.

sharky the money ive got was to spend on the tls but in order to do that it has to come of the road ,cant do without the bike, yes it costs $80 plus a week we have a budget for fuel,food the fuggin lot now that im not working in the mines no more, slashed my pay in half to have a life!!

i want the cruser to comute, go away with wife or kids for the day or weekend ,if i finish the tls i wont be able to carry them or my rack bag for work!!

i work in newy its 15 klms on highway,5 urban and 7 city

[ALBI]

[rod185651]

Maybe something like this?

[ALBI]

hmmmm looks a wee bit painfull that one ^^^^^^
must be a dapto bike ??

[ALBI]

hey todd i agree its worth the whole lot he is asking ,but!!!!!! its screaming to be turbo'd and make the cops cry !!

[ALBI]

ok before we go any further here and a gay bike .

the
TLS is a fuggin great bike i love it and love riding it!!! ive tried everything to get her to run good but still only gets 120 klm out of a tank!!
wat i have done cleaned injectors
re-set TPS
checked fuel presure ,purfect
checked coolant temp sensor,it was out of range by 20 ohms so i replaced it ,new one
new coolant fan sensor as the coolant fan wasnt turning on and still isnt
the only thuings that goven the fuel is
tps
coolant temp sensor
coolant fan sensor
fuel presure
all to whuich is new or in range
all that is left is wiring harness and ECU
appart from the TRE wich is not fitted "cant find one"
i have fitted the thermostate mod housing" moves the temp sensor from left hand side of rad to thermostate housing and the by-pass hose to water pump.
if i can get it working correctly i will ride it always to work and not worry about the cruzer!!
its just a pain as i can take it to a bloke in adamstown to get sorted but need to get to work and being a mech i hate to pay other mechs top do my dirty work
anyone got ideas on what i may have missed?????

[El_Hefty]

the standard TL's have a cable choke on the left hand switch block , im guessing this has been removed when youve changed the handlebars etc and if so has the choke mechanism been block/held open etc?

just a thought

..or about 20c if you can get as far as
Dick Smiths / Tandy, and know how to solder....

[Yella]

Put a throttle stop in so you only get 1/4 of a turn. That should help

[ALBI]

WELL it wasnt fitted when i got it ?? the cable is there but not hooked up by memory i have pulled it to see if it works and the revs go up ! so i know its backed off so to speak
