Thank you.

Has anyone said Merry Christmas or Happy New Year before the day?

If your ignition coil ohms at 3.8 to 4.5 or 4.6 (going by memory, your coil back is good. I would check fuses, but if the coil is good, I would check into changing the stator. When the original stator failed, the bike was getting harder and harder to start.

Not anything I can think of, but if you have no spark, I would check the ignition coils. Should ohm around 3.8 to 4.6 (going by memory) at about 70 degrees. The ignition coils are under the tank. Make sure to unplug them when testing. On a side note, I ruined my regulator rectifier (the heat sink item on the front of the frame behind the front tire) by jumping the bike from a running car. Was told the cars voltage was too high. Not sure if that was true, but it wouldn’t start after that. I changed the rectifier and it ran. I’ll try to make a video of testing the ignition coils and regulator rectifier

뭐 실망했는데이 로보트 좋아 갖고 싶었는데 엄마는 돈이 없어 안 사 줘요

Someday you’ll have one.

Thank you. I appreciate that. I am going to make a video on checking the ignition coils soon.

No spark. Just continued to crank. Test your ignition coils under the tank. Ohms resistance should be 3.6 to 4.8 ohm at about 68 degrees. Would be slightly higher is hot weather like 3.8-5.0 maybe. As long as you’re within that range the coils are good. I smoked my regulator on the front of the frame by jump starting the bike from a running car. Lesson learned.

RV transport was the most fun I ever had doing work. Seeing the country and meeting other transporters. I hope to start doing transport again in a few years when I am a little closer to retirement.

Thank you.!!!!

I though of putting one of those swiffer mop pads behind it and have it run back and fourth across the floor.

Maybe someday, I’ll get one. A Harley dresser is comfortable to ride.

@@gnjadventures By the time I sold my Harley in 2012, I had already been fitted to this F.....g wheelchair for 8 years. As long as you can keep the dirty side down, keep riding brother. Wind is new skin.

Sorry to hear both. Once a rider always a rider brother.

@electrician248 thanks for the heads up. I will definitely check on that. I haven’t noticed a rattle, but can’t say I’ve listened for it.

@@gnjadventures Thank you. That part of most over head cam, four stroke engines usually never gives any trouble, but its an easy fix if it does.

Yamaha V-Star.

There is a new video out out a few days ago on replacing a stator

I add seafoam to the fuel. I try to run the fuel out if possible. However, I use the generator around the yard, like building garden boxes and running my miter saw off of the generator. Winter months, I'll put the generator outside and run an electric heater while I am working in the garage.

Amen!!!!

Since my wife traveled with me, I didn’t have room in the truck for a portable AC unit. Sadly I ran the truck when it was too hot. My friend had a sliding rear window and he placed a small air conditioner at the rear window every night.

My 05 had 8500 miles and I’ve had it now 8 years. I have an oil leak that I have traced back to the stator wires leading back into the side of the engine. I have a new stator on order and I’ll make a video about changing it. I have one now, but people seem to not be able to figure out removing 3 screws and installing new screws, so I will make another video. I love mine and I’ll keep it as long as it runs. It’s paid for and gets me where I need to go. Stay safe!!

@@gnjadventures you to m8

I think I remember hearing that before.

I have been happy with my V-Star. I have the video where I replaced the stator. I have been fighting an oil leak and narrowed it down to the rubber grommet where the wires from the stator come out of the housing. I’ve ordered a replacement stator so watch for that video to come out soon. That is the only issue I have had is the stator.

HELLO *he said*

I tried to disable and it said there were a couple different routines already, so I created a new one

Happy Birthday 🎉🎈🎂!!!!!

@@gnjadventures Thanks

@@gnjadventures pin? Pls

@@gnjadventures pin?

Yes, you need to subscribe to ring for the patrols and smart alerts. We had the free 60 day trial and it was ok, but nothing I would pay for. You can say “Astro, I’m leaving and he will still go into home monitoring mode, but it has not sent me any alerts. When I come back if I don’t turn off home monitor it will say unrecognized person until it sees my face. I will try to have the neighbor come in after I set home monitor and see what it does if it doesn’t recognize that person. I do not own ring cameras, but I have the blink system (also owned by Amazon) but it is not connected to Astro.

Yes, subscription is needed for self patrols.

@GumbyPW. Yes, Astro is still working… trouble is I’m still working and just beat at the end of the day. I told my wife I need to make a video this weekend. Yes, I saw they lowered the price. Why have Astro for business that anyone can buy, but personal Astro is invite only. Maybe they figure people will buy the business model and not have to get accepted. Is your Astro still working?

@@gnjadventures Yes. I still have an occasional chargeing prob. where no mattter what I try (clean contacts, moving him on contacts, etc.) wont charge. Then just A re-boot, even doing it from the App. so I don't even touch him & charging starts. Really weird

😂

That’s great. I’ll make a short for that. Thanks for the suggestion

@@gnjadventuresno problem!

Thank you for your feedback

I have mine on carpet, at first the weight was around 3-4 lbs. I decided to “repurpose “ some old PlayStation 3 games and put one under each foot of the litter robot. Now I am getting 7.5 to 8. Lbs. I think I will take a sheet of plywood and cut it the size of the footprint of the robot and see if it gets any closer to the cats weight. Chester is about 9 pounds and Kevin is around 11 pounds. I’m not 100% the scale works very well. My 20+ year old cat refuses to use the robot, she is sure it’s a trap and wants nothing to do with it. 🤣

Sorry you’re having that issue. The customer service is hit and miss. I’ve had “better” luck through the Astro app, but when I had a battery issue they said they would send a replacement charger and battery. I only received the charger. So I understand what you mean.

I went into the Astro app. Then settings, then help & feedback and I used the speak with a representative. The chat is not as fast. Once you tap speak to a representative, you put the number you want them to call and (when I did it) someone that knows Astro will call you in a few minutes. It was very quick.

@@gnjadventures Thank you very much! I am in a separate chat window with customer support now and they are giving me the runaround. I will try from the app. Thanks again.

@@TecTimmyon the Astro app, does it say what the charge on Astro is or does nothing come up, if the battery is totally dead, maybe leave it on the charger overnight. One time Astro got stuck while we were gone for the weekend and the battery was completely dead. Set him in the charger and after about 20 mins I was able to turn him on. Just a thought.

@@gnjadventures thanks but this isn’t it. I’m waiting for customer service to call me back. They submitted a ticket. I sent them your video also as an example of the problem

🤣

😂

Thank you for the comments 😃

Thank you.

We do too, it’s like a pet that we don’t have to feed, take for a walk…

Working on an oil change and final drive fluid replacement video. Should be up today or tomorrow.

When I had the white bulb, it would distract my eyes at night. I always caught myself glancing at it. The red bulb doesn’t effect my eyes.

@@gnjadventureswondered if it was something like that. red is what is used for lighting if you're an astonomer so as not to dilate the eyes

Yes, I have made that sound as well.

I will put that on the list of upcoming shorts.

I have added the dinosaur roar. It’s more of a growl. 🐯

@@gnjadventures ohhhh okayy.

I know. Love a good round of rock paper scissors.
