Ok- Back to the drawing boards....My bike has an s and s lower end, big sputhe barrels with 4.1 bore and 4 5/8 stroke, wellover 100 c.i. and hundred plus hp. It has vented rocker boxes(not the factory style head breathers, but actually vented rocker boxes) and it has the standard crankcase vent that would originally go to the carb but now is routed up and into a catch can (actually a 16 oz water bottle) that is mounted on the side of the frame about carb height or so. The problem is I keep dumping oil out of the crankcase vent big time. Not just a drop, dumping. I rode across town and filled the 16 oz bottle, I put in a quart in the oil bag(it was a bit low before that ride) and on the way home I filled the bottle again and them some. That is a quart in like a 5 mile ride. Before I...

Anyone know how to solve the problem I am having uploading some pics? My files are too large, so how do I fix that issue? Thanks, as a computer geek I am a hell of a biker lmao.
Ride Free......

I just installed the PCIII today, along with my new slip-ons and SE air cleaner. I bought the PCIII from Jamie at Fuelmoto... the maps were installed by Jamie prior to me receiving it. The bike is MUCH more responsive... I am happy.

What I am not happy with is that there seems to be a delay, or hesitation, when I hit the throttle (except in first or second gear). WTF!?!?! :gah:

Does anyone know how I can fix this? If the maps were installed by Jamie, do I still need to do the 0 throttle setting thing?

This has been around before but I ran across it again and thought I'd share it here.


An apology is in order, so, please, forgive me. It was not until this
morning on my ride to work that I fully understood I was in error.
Yes, I've noticed that there are many very busy and important people
on the roads. You all are hard to miss with the cell phones, laptops,
breakfast bars, coffee, cigarettes and all, but until now, I didn't
realize I was causing so much trouble for you busy, multitasking
drivers.

I figured it out this morning, thanks to the nice lady working on the
laptop who needed the lane I was in.

First, ma'am, let me say that when I honked at you from the shoulder,
I didn't mean to startle you. My intent was just to give you a little
beep to let you know the lane...
