It is slow around here recently, I'm certainly guilty of reading and not commenting; I think I am not the only one... I see the regulars posting more infrequently as well. I'm not making a value judgment, simply commenting on the pattern I see. Summer is upon us, though in our pluged in world I'm sure people are still checking in here nearly as frequently. So I suppose I would say, yes we are here, were just having one of those seven minute lulls in the conversation. Best of luck, and enjoy your build TT.
I'm pretty much a "newbie" here, but check in a few times a week. My bike is currently the way I want it, so haven't had the need to post for advice. Sure helped me get where I am with it, and was much appreciated.
I'm in dead center NY state, and we're planning to head South to Newburgh to the motorcycle museum in a few weeks - nice long day trip.

I check in pretty regularly, but have been pretty quiet myself since I haven't really had much issues with my Speedmaster - it's fantastic!

It's sunny and in the mid 60s with highs getting into the mid 70s today, I'm going for a ride.

Disconnect everything non essential and see if it still blows. Remove all bulbs, or better yet disconnect them from the harness. Can also remove all fuses that don't run the engine. Ad stuff back one at a time and maybe you can find the problem. Could likely be a power wire with worn insulation shorting against the frame.

when exactly does it blow?

At first, immediately. Changed a ratty looking STOP/RUN switch and found a couple of bare spots on other wires. Now, it takes a second or two to blow.

Since January, Momma got bilateral hip replacements...so I've been a bit distracted from anything other than applying/removing compression stockings and dealing with the emotional upheaval of a yoga teacher with an uncertain future for resuming her career path. Still looking forward to my first ride of the year.

Sorry to hear about your wife Bee. If it's any consolation, if any one can resume their career after a hip replacement it would be a yoga instructor. I can't think of any one more qualified or disciplined to follow through with proper stretching and mobility exercises post surgery. I keep telling myself I need to start doing yoga.. And I keep getting less flexible lol

Thanks for the encouragement. She'll get there. I, too, am getting less flexible by the day waiting for my favorite yoga diva to return to the mat. In the meantime, I'm compensating by visiting a local asian massage joint to work out the kinks. Not sure if that is taking our or putting in kinks...
As an aside, I just got Rodburner's old frame rails back from the powdercoater and I'll be getting some custom lines made up ASAP so's I can wrap up my OIF conversion. I actually may get in the wind before the end of June. Allin - I should have my old oil cooler available to send your way in the next month or so....
