OH! You lost the end cap. I was trying to figure out how you lost the adjuster when the axle runs through it! Those are cheap and easy to replace. Make sure you replace both nuts, and give the threads a good looking over too. I replaced the whole adjuster assembly when I bought mine, because

Adjusting block came off - gone gone gone. Both nuts gone, and just a gaping hole at the end of the frame with the adjusting screw pointing af. On Wednesday, June 7, 2017 at 6:08:17 AM UTC-4, Happy Home wrote: > > Of course I should have caught this in pre-ride inspections -- alas, I was >

Sounds like a loose ground then, glad it was easy. Adjusting block came OFF, as in not there, or as in no nut or lock nut? On Jun 16, 2017 14:14, "Happy Home" wrote: > Thanks all !!! > > As it turns out, there was a problem with the group where the circuit > combines with

Thanks all !!! As it turns out, there was a problem with the group where the circuit combines with the turn signal -- or so the tech told me -- in any case, it couldn't have been too hard because they only charged me $25 to find it and repair it. A far greater problem was that the left chain

Good point from Kyle's comment. Would also apply to the front brake switch. Isn't the 250 equipped with a front drum? On Jun 8, 2017 14:27, "Kyle Munz" wrote: > If the foot switch defaults to normally closed it would leave the brake > light illuminated all the time, which

If the foot switch defaults to normally closed it would leave the brake light illuminated all the time, which could be mistaken for the taillight if you never see it dim/brighten. -Kyle On Thu, Jun 8, 2017 at 1:11 PM, Keith Fougere wrote: > unlikely that both hand and

unlikely that both hand and foot switches went bad at the same time - i would suspect a bad connection somewhere in the harness On Wednesday, June 7, 2017 at 6:08:17 AM UTC-4, Happy Home wrote: > > Of course I should have caught this in pre-ride inspections -- alas, I was > focused on

I had this problem on my 96 750. There is a long spring connected to your rear break peddle. Somehow mine got stretched so that it couldn't pull far enough to activate the rear break light. It's maybe 10 inches long and has an about 2 inch long spring built into it. Right side of the bike.
