I want to see pictures of your added extra tailights!
You do good mods
So, did you do the test as described on the forum? Loosen the cap. Ride the bike. Did the problem go away? If so, you have an "evap" (tank venting) issue. If the problem did not go away, it was not caused by the evap system. (all rough idle, stalling, and power loss issues are not caused by a faulty evap system - in fact , very few of them are in my experience)Yalzin wrote:I was having some of the EVAP issues discussed in the forums. Unplugged the hose, plugged the end of that cap, and got a 2t cap.
If you are removing that hose and plugging it, be sure to get a vented cap.
Very Nice!!!!slotrod65 wrote:Thanks.jimmbomb wrote:Slotrod......

Here are the mods: A pair of "Zeppelin" style lights wired as aux turn signals. Since the bracket I used for mounting as insulated, I had to run a separate ground wire. These LED lit aux turn signals are very bright!
It wasn't so much a faulty evap system as gas getting into the hose when going up hill, causing the rough idle/stall/power loss. The mechanic at the shop designed something to try and prevent that from happening, which we have yet to try, but for now, the vented cap and plugging the evap system work.Dooglas wrote:So, did you do the test as described on the forum?

For the lights, just search ebay motors for "Bullet Light" or "Zeppelin Light" They come with 3, 2, or no fins. I added LED bulbs from http://www.autolumination.com/jimmbomb wrote:

Good job!!! Where did you get those LED Zeps?
