  5. 300 factory

    in OSSA

    Posted

    Thanks!

       It should be lots of fun.  I did see a missing bushing and screw on the lower kickstart (common to come loose) and that makes it harder to start also. I think I have a spare around (it looked like something that could get lost)- otherwise I'll get one coming. 

    The TPS needed to be reset again- it was a little off. So far, Ive seen the like to be reset a after a number of hours, then every 100 hours or so. (It has 17 hours).

    Well, I now have four OSSAs in the garage. (One is a restoration project).

    we did some trading and I now have the 2014 Factory 300 that has been talked about a bit. I didn't have much trouble starting it, but I'm going to do my 'super easy start' mod anyway. I'll check the mixture and all that stuff too.

      Certainly more power than my Explorer, but it is heavier also. I'm not exactly sure how I'll set it up- some sort of 'long range' seat/tank likely the Betas have I think. I'd like to try one of those and see if they fit.

  7. Ossa tr300i fan relay issue

    in OSSA

    Posted

    I had to replace the fan itself on mine. Maybe 250+ hours.

      It had started to make noise when first starting- so I already had one in the garage. of course, I was out on the tail when it failed (bike started steaming) and I had to tow it back much of the way.

    I think I have a spare relay- but probably a good idea to have one handy.

  8. 14 tr300i Factory Headlight removal?

    With 'easy start' AAA battery fully charged

    Push kill button once.

    take slack out of kickstarter, then give it a VERY healthy kick.  Don't touch the throttle!

    Mine will generally start 1st or 2nd kick from cold, 1 from hot. (With my latest map/fuel mixture setting when cold it has been taking a few kicks, but it runs so well when warm I've left it)

     

    that's what works for me anyway.

    Even with the junk around, the stator certainly could produce voltage.

    BUT the pickup for the spark timing won't work.

    im not sure if i have any test values around for the stator, I was thinking it was in the service manual? If it were me, I would replace the screws (properly locktited as mentioned) clean everything up and see if it will start.
