  1. If it was a part that never came apart it would be fine. But spark plug holes or these manifolds are constantly being used so the failure rate will be higher with the helcoil.
  2. Energy = heat No getting away from that. But because it's electronics it's just a matter of time before we have super powerful LED bulbs that are compact but I doubt we'll getting away from the cooling needs. What would be nice is variable speed cooling fans. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/20757/led-lighting-with-incandescent-spectrum
  4. So a Sucra will make noise in neutral? What is making the noise?
  5. You don't want White for the tail light. With LED you want the light to match the lens. I posted why on Wild Guzzi recently.
  6. Those cameras are less than $20 on Amazon. Cheaper than pulling the transmission off! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Are you running a separate headlight relay?
  8. What they don't show you is the wiring required for that light. Well, they show it but not attached.
  9. Ain't hard to figure out how much space you have in the bucket. But I'd be surprised if you had 35mm.
  10. I wouldn't recommend removing the spring, at least switch it out with the seat release one first. With the clutch lever pulled in you should hear rattles (twin plate). It should be quieter when in neutral with lever released.
  11. I like mine. Set the "choke" and let it idle for a minute or two. Then ready to go. I guess an automatic fast idle for cold starts was too much to ask in 2001?
  12. It's that kind of attitude (along with a sprinkle of greenie attitude) that makes this forum such a great place. "When you lose, don't lose the lesson." - generally attributed (although perhaps incorrectly) to Dalai Lama. Quotes are never incorrectly attributed on the internet. Ever.
  13. We learn as much from our mistakes as our successes. So if we only post our successes we're only learning half as much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. They don't technically have to.
  15. So the $20 bulb puts out 200 lumen and the regular one is 1850 and you're complaining? The blue/white is very effective at one thing, drivers seeing you.
  16. We need a better "new owner and forum member's checklist" otherwise known as "what you will get yelled at first about". 1. F'n Relays - docc 2. Winkie light - Kiwi_Roy 3. Why didn't you listen to the first two guys - Scud Something like that.
  17. I didn't know there was now a lumen and color requirement.
  18. So does it actually crossover or just kiss?
  19. The V11 bucket is about the same size as the 850T one. About 5in deep. For $20 you can confirm the bulbs I recommended work.
  20. You can get those cameras on Amazon. Get the best resolution you can.
  21. One can fail from repeated use. One cannot.
  22. So what are the OEM connectors? Or is there a mix of AMP Superseal and Delphi Metri-Pack?
  23. Well, yeah . . . you know where to post your results! Wild Guzzi? [moderator edit: ] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. When I'm forced to Speedhuts I'll dust off the 3D printer and make some parts to help seal them up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Back then the cars had equally bad brakes so it was even.
