You need to absolutely fill that room with MV owners and other interested parties. Everyone should be well-dressed and professional-looking and be very polite.

I replaced the right-side turn signal stalk on my M1030M1 last night. What a pain! I had to remove the front cover, the headlight assembly and the tool bag. I still couldn't get to the wiring. I then unplugged all of the connectors hoping that would help. It didn't help. The wires out of...

Put what you don't want up for sale. If you got a good deal on them you should be able to make some money. A profit will help with your wife.

I'm not entirely sure what you are looking for, but here are some photos. Mine are steel and fiberglass troop seats. I couldn't open M35fan's photos, but here are some. Hope it helps.

I've had my M1030M1 almost 5 years now, and ride it regularly. I have never had a solenoid fail since I received the bike. One thing that might be the difference is that my M1030M1 starts virtually instantly. It never turns over more than 1 - 2 revolutions before it starts when cold. When...

I took the line loose and air comes out under pressure. I had a difficult time getting the line off once I loosened the nut. I hooked the line back up. Unfortunately, I hit my elbow on the hot muffler!

I haven't used this stuff personally, but I have been considering it. Apparently, it has a good reputation.

Is the valve in the photo the one you are talking about? I tapped on it, but no joy. I sprayed soapy water all over the air lines that I could get to and didn't see any leaks. Also, with the engine running and the air at full pressure and the clutch depressed all the way to the floor, when I...

I have 4 bikes, a 75 Norton Commando 850 MkIII, 68 Triumph Bonneville, 69 BSA 441 Victor Special and a USMC M1030M1 diesel. I took each one for a short 20-minute ride today, just to exercise them. The weather was perfect. The M1030M1 was the last bike I rode. I was having so much fun on...

Bleed the air pack first and then each wheel, starting at the wheel farthest from the MC. Takes two people to do it manually and some time is involved. Be careful, it is very easy to empty the MC and get air back in the system and then you have to start over. Make sure you are using the...

How long are you warming up the glow plug? Also, is your battery fully charged. The battery needs to be in good shape and fully charged to spin the engine fast.

Probably an issue with the solenoid. I've never had that happen with mine. How long do you need to turn the engine over with the starter before it starts? Mine only turns over 1 - 2 revolutions before it starts. If you have to turn it over a long time, that could also explain why the wire is...

Well, we're running on our MEP003A again. Our utility power has been out for hours due to some severe storms. I suspect a tree fell on a line somewhere, although the outage map for EMC shows a fairly large area being out where we are and a lot of other smaller outages. The temperature is...

I still don't have my FLU419 able to drive due to a problem with the intermediate speed control. Has anyone pulled the power lead from the air shift solenoid valve? I want to confirm I'm getting 24 VDC on the wire, but I can't get the wire loose. I'm not sure whether the connector simply...

You should get the part number and NSN from the TM and do a search online, starting with Ebay.

I'm not near my bike right now to take a photo, but I've been told that the starter, and I assume the solenoid, are 100% original standard KLR650. Are you getting real Kawasaki parts, or 3rd party replicas?

Have you cleaned the check valve located in the fittings directly above the tank? These notoriously plug up and have symptoms like you are describing and usually a lot of white smoke out the exhaust as well. Be careful loosening and tightening the fittings as it is easy to break them. Once...

The same with my M35A3. I basically only flip the starter lever and it fires right up. My A3 is the easiest starting diesel I've ever had.

The one that was stuck on my FLU was the left outrigger. It was stuck up and that is why I hammered it down. It works great now.

I had one stuck on my FLU419. It was severely corroded. I removed the tower like you did and took a wire brush wheel and cleaned all of the visible rust on the valve. I then put WD40 on it for several days and then hammered on it with a copper hammer. I eventually got it to move down about...
