DesertRat Serious Thumper Offline I love rat bikes! Posts: 1569 Arizona	Did it AGAIN ... doh 11/14/15 at 12:49:39 cruising down the freeway at 75+ and bike dies without a hiccup, like instantly. WTH? pull over, first glance is at the fuel filter: BONE DRY at this point I'm laughing hard, flipped to reserve and pulled into the nearest gas station.

Posts: 5836 LYNCHBURG TN Gender:	Re: Did it AGAIN ... doh Reply #6 - 11/15/15 at 19:38:52 The little combination locks made for suitcases have three number combinations and fit on the cables in the handle-bar area. They are great for keeping track of when ya filled up last. I refill about every 100 miles or so . Not as much fun as running out of fuel once in a while --- but it works .
