Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Sounding more and more like a trip to Bristol to borrow some bits would have been worth it. I could have lent you an Abba Stand with swingarm removal kit, front lift and the swingarm socket.

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Hooked up the auxialliary lights on the DRZ. Bit of a faff running all wiring and soldering in from a switched live to the relay, then trying to fit it all tucked away in limited space. Got a feeling...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Space, weight , cost, aesthetics.
Abba stand with swingarm kit left installed on the bike works great on the SV.
Any bike I've had with a centre stand usually gets left on the side stand...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Checked again today and the voltage output from the stator running was non-existent.
Opened it up and I'm going to just bite the bullet and swap it for a good new RM Stator one. Probably a new...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Do you know what replacement you went for? I'm tempted to look for another RM Stator one if I need to swap it out, but they're expensive. If there's something as good for less then I'd opt for that...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Trying to work out what's wrong with the VFR. Took it for MOT yesterday and it passed. On the way home charging dropped and then lost all power.
I've recently done a reg rec upgrqade and hard wired...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Does anyone know anything about the SV1000 I posted the pic of above? Apparently it was an official GSXR tribute model with GSXR front end and slightly upped power etc. I can't find any details about...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Looking at possible winter projects. I still keep going back to the idea of another SV and doing the GSXR fork swap. Problem is by the time you've got an ok SV and some decent forks at prices people...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Shipping container prices (at least for bicycles we stock) went up from £100 per container to £10,000 last year and bike distibutors put up the price of every bike by £100 to compensate. Quite a few...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
I had this on my DRZ and it was the Stator. It tested just within spec of resistance but resisitance goes up with heat, so after half hour of riding resistance had risen and it wasn't putting out...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Got the Street Triple just about back together and running again at last. I won't go into the details as I've had enough of it but it was a tricky one to say the least. And not a cheap service either...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
The display is via the software that reads what the ECU is getting from all the sensors on the bike, including the air flow / mix etc.
Just got round to trying to order the software and lead...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Started the big 12k service on the Street Triple. Exhaust valves are all at the limit or slightly tight so all going down one shim size. The cam cover has to come off anyway to fit the plate to check...
