Re: What caused the engine to seize?
Thanx for the update. I remember back when the thread was active thinking that this motor needed the oil out and to be rotated at the crank. Glad things worked out so well, congrats. RR

Re: Brake Light Micro Switch Problem
The same thing happened to me. 2000 r11r w/ 35,000mi.. I did pretty much as you did, a little brake cleaner, wd40, and I tweeked the switch blade a bit. It's been a year and a half since the fix, no problems. I never checked on a new one. Ron

p.s. I know, no help

Re: problem externalizing fuel filter
Okay, I failed at putting up a diagram from the manual. Let me see if I can say this a little differently w/o referencing the connectors. With the IN on the tank and the IN on the filter facing each other, you are asking the fuel to go two different directions. Fuel flow direction thru the filter ca...
