I ordered one from Rad, that had a slot edmed in it. The peace that was edmed out was sent with it to be installed in the slot after wire was in place. That stopped the tool from collapsing when you put pressure on it with a wrench, when loosening the freewheel.  edm= electrical discharge cutting machine. cuts with electrically charged wire.

It worked that way up until I hit 12747 miles on the bike and then the controller quite working. Then I replaced it with it with a Bolton 35 amp controller and problem went away. I now have 15250 miles and bike is running great. I don't know if the throttle worked when that happened or not.

Watch out what you hook up to the upgraded 35 amp controller on the lighting circuit. I have read that anything brighter than the small stock headlight will fry the controller. Even the upgraded Rad light is to much. Contact Area 13 for more info.

I was told you should wait an hour, before charging the battery after a ride. Battery is in draw mode and should rest before charging.

After 12,747 miles on my Rover ST1, the original controller quit working. I installed the Bolton 35amp. upgrade kit and I'm back on the rode again.  There's suppose to be a cruise control option with this upgrade, but I don't know how to activate it. I have C7 set at 1 for cruise on. The instructions I found online from Big Game Bikes states that if this feature is activated, holding the up arrow button when riding will set the cruise control at your current speed. When I try that, all that happens is my lights turn on or off. Can anyone help me get this feature working. I called Area 51 and they said they would get back to me but it hasn't happened in the last 3 days. I hope someone here can help me out. Thanks in advance
