K&N's only keep out the big rocks. No, not joking. Use a K&N in dusty environments and you can count on new rings etc by 50,000 km. That K&N induction roar may prove to be a very expensive over time. LOL Good quality paper filters DON'T cost horsepower and do protect the engine. My next ...

For years I was hitting the l/h ind switch instead of the horn so in the end I transferred the micro switches within the housing from top to bottom and vice versa . There was just enough room without modifying the wiring to do this . Obviously the external "levers" are marked incorrectly ...

Notice "25kW" references in the second column of the table? Notice also the these CCP connections show Pin 86 connected to earth (Pin 30)? If you have Pin 86 connected to Pin 30 (irrespective of any other links), you will drop 25kW (33hp). }:-O I'm about to finalise an instrument panel pus...

Hi Fellow 11S Trixters. Health issues have abated such that today I've been able open Herr Flick's throttle in anger on mountain roads for the first time since adding full bellmouth profiles to the intakes of the GS intake runners that I fitted a couple of years ago. I wasn't sure if I should expect...

A woman was standing at the edge of a cliff trying to get the nerve to jump off. A homeless drunk stopped and mumbled, "If you're about to kill yourself, how about a shag before you go?" The woman was angry and said, "No! F*** off you filthy old bastard." The tramp turned to lea...

Question - if I pull out my ECU will it affect or damage my chip in any way? Also, if I remove the chip will it wipe it? Slightly reluctant to pull it at a time when I'm using the bike lots. Nik Hi Nik. No. You can't wipe the chip just by removing it from the ECU. Any changes to chip can be made on...

You need a device capable of reading the contents of the EPROM. Fortunately I have one here at work, and work with a bunch of electronics designers. I may take my ECU out over the weekend, if I can be bothered to strip all the bodywork off again... Nik It's ok Motocod. I have an electronics backgro...

Thanks - figured as much. Not sure I have the inclination to take all the bodywork off again. Does anyone have an old chip they can send me? I have the capability of reading/programming EPROMs at work, so it'll allow me to read the binary info so I can send it to John for him to tweak. Hi Motocod. ...

If a cargo plane can carry the weight of 1000 pigeons, can it carry 2000 pigeons provided you keep 1000 of them flying around the cabin? Can we simplify that? How about a box on a very sensitive weighing scale, with just one bird on a perch. We note the weight. The bird gets bored and starts flying...

First, try fitting The Choobs. Might save you lots of $$$. HerrFlick .......choobs ?????? I'm new to Oilheads. Bike has [ is getting ] Y pipe, freeflow silencer and K&N style filter pods. Hi Beachcomber, The Choobs are 1100/1150 GS intake tubes, fitted to 'S'. See 'Intake Ramtubes'. Includes dy...

Went a looking for more info and this link seems good (for laymen like me).

Haha. Great minds.

Yes Corvus, that's my understanding too. I'm not sure of what the actual process is but the wave rebounds when it reaches the end of the tube and travels back down to the inlet valve. That's what I've always understood anyway. Referring to data next to pictures. Doesn't seem to be any valve overlap...

That sounds good. I feel some velocity stacks coming on! What injun? Sohc or dohc?
