    Bike won't hold idle

    A bad throttle body synch can cause this. Also can cause a hunting idle. For what it's worth, I had 2 intakes at the tight limit last valve check, so adjusted for more gap. Listened to light cold tap for 20k, redid last winter, they hadn't moved a smidgen, so back to tight they went-all is good.

    Frank won't quit

    He's got Zook to keep him company, Franks never lonely. Been debatin' getting rid of skoots altogether and building another hot rod too, but don't know that I wanna do it so bad I haven't got anything to ride. Honestly, I think Franks safe, for a while at least.

    Can Am Spyder RT

    Some n00b just posted up how he dumped one (junk engine control system, lived at dealer forever) and bought a Feej, couldn't be happier. Sounds like a bad ride to me. Found it
