    I did mention this site cryptically and it hasn't been removed, but I think someone (edit: pretty sure its Blitzkrieg using another name not that it matters).....is again reviving really really old threads..so I asked.....



    The end of it says " either way your late as FUCKKKKKKKKKK"
    for those that do not go there.... I have nothing against the other site..other than being annoyed when I can't tell someone about this site, or some OLDDDD dead thread gets revived for NOOOOO reason.

    I messaged them on there site and was told "there website is being updated" and I should contact them directly, or send in a parts request to ask for any of the items. (the website for the 1 in Tucson,AZ - chose that 1 as I believe in the video the young lady said all items were made in Tucson).

    I have the 16 SS with the small battery. I swapped out for the Yellow top battery and the tray is not needed it will work with out the try. It's not as pretty looking but how often do you open up the battery compartment to show it off? The bungee cords are probably useless but I threw them on since I had them and thought why not. The red "hold down" came with the yellow top battery. On the back side of the battery coming out of the vehicle there are 2 screws I covered with tire valve caps so the pointy screws wouldn't dig into the battery. The compartment is small so the battery can't escape.

    Personal opinions aside in FL it would be illegal ..... your passenger must be able to meet certain criteria since it is registered and tagged as a motorcycle. If they are still of an age or size to require a car seat or booster then they would not be able to ride.

    I'm pretty sure that is the same for almost if not all states.

    My son is 3 and I pick him up from daycare often in it. No car seat, but I do take his bike helmet and sun glasses. Also his day care is less then half a mile away and all back streets no main roads.

    I haven't hooked jumper cables to it yet, also side note normally when I drive it to my sons daycare (less than 1/2 a mile away) go in get him come back out it started right up with out the slow start.
    I just assumed if it was battery after these few weeks and we really only drive it 1 or 2 times a week to pick up my kid from daycare and that's it so no real driving for alternator to charge the battery I thought the battery would be completely dead by now if it was the issue..... I'm not a mechanic so my thought could be wayyyyyy off lol
    Edit.. not daily driver, it was my wifes until I started working from home now she drives the truck and the Honda just gets used when kid needs picking up lol

    We have a Honda SUV and a few weeks ago when you turn the key over the lights kind of flicker and it slow starts (sounds like it doesn't want to start and then turns over and starts). I thought it may need a new battery (still haven't bought a battery as we don't drive it often) any way it was doing that for a few weeks and made me think maybe it's not a battery as it would have died by now? Then today I go to start it and get that "click click click" sound like a dead battery however all my lights/gauges ect all light up brightly like the battery is good, I try again..click click click... wait a second try again and it starts up.... I was gonna go pick up my 3 year old (almost 4) from daycare but didn't want to get stuck so I took the SS instead.
    Anyway what say you mechanics.... starter is bad/going bad? or what is most likely culprit for something like this? Thanks

    Damn I missed this 1 and your up the street from me (I think we kind of meet on our ride back from Kerrville - we pulled of for gas)....
    Happy bday and hope someone starts putting together local DFW rides at some point :thumbsup:
