A post of mine from another list I'm on, it's making sense now.
I knew I wasn't nuts! It *occasionally* makes boost! Put a hard test ride in tonight. Took it easy checking out the route, then made my runs coming back. Nothing, in any gear, which ticked me off since I did get boost heading into work. Got back and pulled the filter, no oil, but the turbines were stiff and would
barely turn when I revved it up. *Insert frustrated sigh here*. Let the
bike cool down, and magically they turn freely again. Heat it up with more
then a 10 or so mile ride, and they barely turn. Cold they turn easily, start the
bike and while oil flows (but still cold) they turn even easier. I'm about
to declare the turbo defective unless Mr. Turbo has an explanation for this.
This explains why it worked right after the install (short ride), but not
the ride home from John's, going to work (very short ride), but not after I
sweep for leos then do test runs.
Or could I be interpreting this wrong? I want to call tomorrow and get
another unit sent out.
