At 13 volts a 100 ohm resistor will allow only .13 amp to flow through. In comparison, a resistance of .5 ohms allows 26 amps to flow through. So, I guess they are stuffed. So, if they are stuffed, try and pull them apart to clean the contacts, because you can't make it much worse than stuffed!

Random comment : I had a piece of card go into the airbox inlet and sit inside the 'Y' at the top of the airbox. (Don't ask how, it's stupid) When the bike was running it would whistle/whir/hum, which confused me for a while. On another tangent, I wonder if there is a measurement for how much...

Scary huh?! Glad you're OK.

WOW! What a bargain! Too cool. I want one, to convert to CNC. Then I can learn how to do 3D CAD design, and use a milling machine. Should be easy, right? :rofl_200: I agree. I wish I had pics of the brake mods I did on my little Benelli. The pad is rotated a few degrees, and it is...

Put some good gas in it, maybe that will help!

When you say you can hear the servo, what do you mean? Can you hear it whirring at idle? The cap doesn't require turning, it just presses on with the arrow facing up. Stalling problem could be vapour lock, or a dicky fuel pump, or a blocked fuel filter, or ... Also, if it hasn't done many...

You can't really get inside those mufflers without destroying them. It can be difficult to get the mufflers off sometimes, but you might be able to see something inside. I doubt it though. If it doesn't come out by itself, or burn out, I don't know what you can do.

That is the sort of thing that I would look at getting from a leather worker! What you could do is google "leather barrel bag motorcycle"!

That makes so much sense! Why hadn't I heard of it before? Lol Ninja, I recall a thread by SpecOps about his extreme efforts to seal the stator wires/grommet. If I had time I'd link it for you.

Cool. I'm glad you nutted it out! The problems you had were very interesting, and you came up with a unique solution. Rock on! :punk:

Mate, sorry for the late reply, but I didn't see this thread before. Even though the Vmax has a cable, there is still a digital signal being sent from the speedo to the flasher unit. It will be able to inform the signal dynamics unit that the bike is stationary, no problem. The only proviso...

Those covers look great. I like the fake fins too. I think that I want a full set of RSV covers now!

I left my headlight always on because I'm OK with that, but the front running lights I changed. The way I did it was to convert to single filament bulbs. I cut off the running light wire to the front indicators, then I put a solder bridge across the two connections in the indicator. ie. Pull...

That is just ****.

Get another motor off Sean or Kyle, and exchange carbs off Danny. :-)

Corsets corsets corsets ****s. :biglaugh:

Teflon can work, but it's not recommended by some fuel injection people because little bits of it come free and block holes further down the line. Whatever, it works, but not always. Permatex Aviation form a gasket No3 should work. Loctite 242 (blue) is supposed to be OK for immersion in fuel...

That looks like the box of spare money I keep under my bed.

Most of the time fuel has a dye added to make it the colour it is. In Aust. the older fuel is red, but they also have green and yellow fuel in different octane ratings. If you have a slow fuel weep, the fuel evaporates too quick to be seen on it's own, but the dye left over is visible, and...

That's nutty. I feel ashamed because he rides better than me, when he's sitting on his bike backwards.
