It has been mentioned that you can make the lock tool out of a coffee can. Others have mentioned that you can use a rubber oil filter strap. I haven't tried it myself.
I've seen this tool pop up a few times. Should work. A few sources here but there are others that carry it.

Have pathfinder on my R and it wurks grate, don't remember using reversing adapters but I think they were included with the light. Will take a look at my bike and see if I used them.

If you jack up your bike you will see the skid plate underneath. There is a hole almost in the center of the skid plate. Get under there with a flashlight and you will see the neutral switch with 2 wires connected to it. My neutral switch was ok but something in the speedometer head wasn't allowing the green light to turn on.

Ok so i pulled the fuel sending unit out and cleaned the rod that they say to clean and reinstalled it and the unit still does the same thing when i turn the key on the fuel gauge lights up and runs across the glass then drops back and goes dark .So now what do i try .Being that these bikes have a small tank i need gauge .
Sounds more like the gauge itself, then the sender in the tank. The sender moves the needle but the gauge should remain lit up all the time the key is on. Most just use the odo since many fuel gauges are unreliable.
Get ahold of Angelo Van Oudheusden at DutchCustomLED on FaceBook . He rebuilds clusters and might have the solution for you.

Best to use your trip meter on your odometer. Vrods get about 45 mpg, when you have gone 135 miles, you should have 3/4 of a gallon left. Fuel gauges are notoriously unreliable on the Vrod.

From the factory, stock..... maybe........... With aftermarket appliances and tune, I'm lucky to get 35 mpg.............. you are correct in the fact that you should never trust a fuel gauge, you should keep track of your odometer.

I tell you what you guys are awesome .Thanks so much
45 mpg is optimistic and likely Imperial gallon. If you convert over to US gal the absolute most you can squeeze out of these bitches is maybe 38 on a good day, warm temps and no wind, level ground. 35 mp US gal is more the norm. I believe the factory claimed 37, most never see.
