Dougie is spot on check/upgrade those breakers. The bad news is yours are on the splash guard and will require pulling the rear wheel to service. The ones in the ignition boxes are more prone to be effected by the heat off the motor but you may just have a bad breaker.

Also the symptom of cutting out can sometimes mean vapor lock from a blocked vent tube. Open the gas cap and see if it starts right back up. Your lucky replacing a Vindicator cap is cheap.

LOL….I’ve watched and read your gas cap thread dougie, and I hope you got your’s resolved, sounds like you did. As for me, it’s not critical, it’s just about having a stand-by, so I’ll be doing some looking and talk to the machine man about a possible build?
Stephen impresses me as a stand-up dude, and I hope to swill some scotch and smoke a fine cigar with him next June.

Let me know if you get one and if it works. We built a handful of early 03 with the Hotmatch cap. When Metal Monsters (Trent) started making them the thread pitch was changed and the Hotmatch won’t work. I have 3 different “Trent” caps that I’ve had made for people.

There is moisture in concrete. A good cover will create a terrarium. Gun shops sell dehydrators for gun safes. Not a bad idea to have one sitting on the ground if you cover your bike for a long time.

Read the forum you’ll learn a lot. There’s even few postings with links to Spykes (starter mfg) web site. Welcome!

I’ll go find it. I’ll do some digging to see if I can figure out how many we made. I’m working on moving over the database of bikes so WE can search it. 🙂 White bikes are rare but they look great when they have the right graphics.

Based on the cap base you sent me, my guess is the base diameter is a little too large. Maybe if you have it turned down a 1/4″ you’ll clear the step in the bung and get the cap down flush.

I posted a set of Sampson Sinners on eBay today. They will fit on any LSD Vengeance. We used them on Banshees.
