Re: Liquifire crank seals

New to the Kawi, do I have to split the case to replace the crank seals? Can I just do the two seals? Or do I need more gaskets etc? Seal Part numbers?

Liquifire crank seals

Start to finish, from the time you open the hood to adding coolant. What's the average time for doing crank seals? Fire series chassis.

Re: Fire series Liquifire clutch cooling

Why the additional cooling? These holes are not on the fan cooled sleds.

Fire series Liquifire clutch cooling

I had thought the original owner of my Liquifire drilled the holes in the left front for clutch cooling, as I was told he just towed his ice shack with it. Found out it is a factory thing. Why all the holes? I tried to ride a little powder and snow just dumps on the belt. Do you guys close it off fo...

Re: Head light inop.

Check voltage at the connector that goes to the dimmer switch and see what reading you have there. You may have a bad dimmer switch. Here's what I did, I unplugged the main wiring harness at the motor. Took a car battery, ground to body, positive to the yellow and brown wires in the main harness. A...

Re: Head light inop.

It sounds like you could possibly have a faulty voltage regulator. What kind of readings do you see on your meter? You can temporarily load test the headlamp circuit with just about any old sealed beam headlight if you happen to have one laying around... I switch up to a needle meter in leu of the ...
