Ok guys woke up this morning and battery DEAD! Of course on my 2 year old twin daughters cardiology appt day. So go get a battery and of course leaving and notice surging and rpm bouncing at idle. Guess what says the alternator regulator is bad. So I go in and the 145 amp new alt is cheaper by 10 bucks than the standard. So I'm just checking that this is just a replace and it works thing? No upgrading for the alt to work.

Ps I'm looking at putting a 2k inverter in for future camping and long trips

Just check the plug to see if it's the same. Should be good to go.

I did the seat mod on my XL today, except mine doesn't go down as far as everyone elses. It definitely goes down further than it did, but not all the way.

It was also not a quick mod like I had imagined. Took a good hour to cut the spring, tube, and nut off.

I did the passenger side. Not too impressed. Gonna take another look at it tomorrow.

My catch can came in the mail today. Where are you guys mounting yours? I'd like to mount it next to the brake booster, but I'm gonna have to fab up some kind of bracket.

Well the dead battery from this morning was replaced from Oreillys and it's right at the same specs as the Optima red top. Well the alternator went out after I replaced the battery go figure. But the high output alternator was 10 bucks cheaper score. After asking questions here. (Thanks for the help!) Boom plugged right up and works great so back on the road and ready for our beach excursion this weekend.
