  1. Two seperate strips of 8" red LED lights acquired from Ebay. Wired through a trailer converter which ties barkes and blinkers together and then run through some resistor/diodes which makes the running lights dim and then the blinker/brake over-ride the running lights. So the two lights perform all three functions of running/brake/blinkers. Very clean!
  2. Listed on Ebay now

  7. One more. New chin spoiler, new fly screen and helmet. Bad lightng in pic! (cell phone lol)
  8. New chin spoiler I picked up from Jaap. Thanks mate!
  9. I tested a pannel first. compared to my side cover. DEAD match!
  10. I actually found a post from another forum and ordered the paint he recommended. The guy was dead on so I wanted to share. I did a 100% paint match to the color! Here are what is needed: All materials are from House Of Kolor and I ordered them from KolorHouse dot com (1) Silver Metallic base. (FBC-02) Qt size is plenty enough to do several bikes. (2) "ORGANIC GREEN" INTENSIFIER KANDY (KK-09). I ordered a 2oz bottle. Believe me you will only need about 4 drops! (3) "LIME GOLD" INTENSIFIER KANDY (KK-02). I ordered a 1/2pt or 8oz bottle. I used about 1/2 of it. (4) Intercoat Clear (SG-100)it's a clear basecoat. I ordered a qt. OK now buy an empty qt paint can and pour 1/2 of the intercoat clear base. Now pour 1/2 of the Lime Gold candy into the 1/2qt of the clear base and start sturring in the Organic Green A DROP AT A TIME until the color appears to match. (I used one of my side covers beside to refference). It only took about 4-5 drops of green to get there!! Then thin with basecoat reducer until the qt can is full. Lay the silver first, let dry. Then lay 3-4 coats of the kandy base you made up letting tack between coats (10-15min). Compare to the bike pannels until you have achieved the proper kandy color. Finally clear over with an automotive urethane clear and you're done! I even did a blend on a side cover (area that was rubbed bad) and the blend turned out about 98% match. (If anyone knows about blend matching, that can't get any better!) I sprayed my chin spoiler, a new fly screen and my helmet. Pics to follow.
  11. Thanks! So after some more talking with the owner and more research I found it to be a PC3 NON-USB and fit the 2000 v11. So I'm missing the software (which I can d/l from the PC site), 9 pin data cable and the 9V batt adapter. I assume any serial cable will work? So without the 9 Volt adapter I can still program using my laptop plugged into the bike correct? Hopefully I think I have it all sorted and maybe a good deal as well..
  12. Ran across a PC for sale but the guy doens't know anything about it. I asked him which model it is but he doesn't know. I can't find much info about the older versions of the PC and I have a faint idea it is one of the older PC without the USB slot. Can maps be loaded to these? What are the major differences between the two? This one is just the unit, no cables, CD, paperwork, ect. I also assume I can d/l the software from the PC site? Although he does guarantee working operation is it worth a purchase? Asking price is $100.00

    Congrats! Good to see the old models still bringing new blood to the fourms (myself included)Lots of reading here! You made a great choice my friend
  17. Oh, word of warning for those who do this mod; warn your mechanic BEFORE he starts the bike! I took my Jackal in for a service years back and the mechanic went to pull the bike in, hit the high idle lever and then the start button... Be about laid it down when she started up at 4grand lol. The look on his face! Funny stuff
  18. ^ Pretty unique I must say! Painted. Will snap a few pics mounted this weekend.
  19. For bar clamps, watch ebay for used California models (Basa, Jackal, ect). They mount up perfectly and are the stock clamps. Good deals can be had, I gave $24.00 for mine in great condition.
  20. 1" drop pegs mounted, everything adjusted and sorted. Bike is a pleasure to ride with the extra room! Thanks guys!!
  21. I couldn't see where it makes a difference operating via left tb linkage v/s right tb linkage. The cross over rod seems up to the task.. That being said this mod should be used to give the throttle hand a rest for a bit, not log hundreds of miles lol. I can assure you this mod does operate flawlessly as I have use it extensively.
  22. I did this trick on my old Jackal and it worked like a charm, I loggel many a mile without problems. The picture is of my V11 I just did. The Pic will explain most of it but here is a step-by-step of the deal: The fast idle cam mounted under the right TB will come off and be moved over one peg. You will see the unused peg. You will need to do a few simple things: (1) Grind down the sharp edge on the cam to make it more of a smoothe roll on the linkage. (2) Add a small spacer or washer to space the cam down to center the linkage roller. (3) Stretch the spring out to cover the extra cable gained. (4) Hardest part; drill a small hole in the peg and pin it so the cam doesn't fall off. DONE! Working the fast idle will give just under 1/2 throttle. I have found it to be more than sufficient cruising light throttle. It gives plenty throttle to pull hills and such. Make sure you stretch the spring and work it to make sure there is no hang up in operation. Enjoy!!
  23. Done with the shaping. Looks better than original and not even painted yet! I'll sling some paint on it in a day or two.
