  1. they mixed up the boxes of springs at the factory and a bunch of them got delivered with the wrong springs in each spot. I heard

    Hello

    Here's my EV powered Convert for some inspiration.

    Hello

    what issues will you run in to? swap the front cover from the old motor, either tranny would fit right? are you going to to take all the FI and ignition with the 1100i? that will really rock. izat a p8 CPU and where will you put it? I spoze you will have to run pod filters cause the air box won't transfer? get some uni filters from denniskirk.com. there might not be room for a battery once you pack in all the electronic systems in there, fuel pump, pres reg, and the CPU. I put an EV into a Convert and put the battery under the tranny but had to eliminate the cross over which worked out w/the way a vert motor runs (lika an airplane) you might need a x-over but could run it at the headers? that will be a screamin machine, hope to see it someday!
  4. what is the performance and sound of these? and then would I want polished headers? price is still too high for seconds in my mind. is the QuatD stainless? could it be polished? where do you buy one?
  5. I like the look OK but for long pipes I really would like to have polished or chrome over my stock muffs. what if that whole quat system was Jet hot coated in a color or bright silver?? as for the outlet, it probably has an exit route that is calculated via baffles etc. I bet the exhaust travel distance around inside there would add up to the length of a full muffler? now I understand why they cost so, is it 8-900.US? I didn't realize the headers were part of the deal. please keep us posted on the QuatD.
  6. NGC but seeing your from baltimore.... I hear Baltimore is the new mecca for dirt bikes? http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/local/bal...56.story?page=1
  7. bad ground around the tail light wiring?
  8. I'm no expert AT ALL. but it sounds like the TPS might be set to high. maybe the Bozo who set it up set the idle voltage as the baseline voltage? does that bike have a p8 CPU? I have fotos of how to probe the wiring and you could check the setting yourself with a multi meter.
  9. I guess someone has checked the TPS voltage? and balanced throttle bodies? what do you mean by does not run well?
  10. I will quit bidding but will you sell me the custom footpegs? thx!
  11. those bikes are all so clean must have been foto'd before they hit the road.. real pretty stuff, love the spokes, they are tubeless, right? wish I had a Quat D but then i'd have to keep the rear end so clean, then I'd want to add the spoke wheels.. oh and then the belly pan. i think I'll have to spend my $ on gas and tires in these times.
  12. MOVE CURSOR AROUND THE PIC AND CLICK ON THE ITEMS IN IT. www.palinaspresident.us
  13. yes and YES
  14. good point on loss of pressure thru leaky clamp// But have you tried starting w/throttle open 1/4 turn? I have to give throttle for a quick start.
  15. Sorry but this thing needs flaming. mine was fun for about a day, then I put the EV1100 motor to better use in an Convert dressed as an SP.
  16. that thing is plain and pure UGLY!
  17. I once had a BMW with a piant that looked black far away but up close it was a dark rootbeer color with gold metal flake, that was cool paint, I think they called it Bronco or something. it had gold pinstriping but red would look good too.
  18. the bubbleing paint was the big issue with that year. the motor is de-tuned compared to the V11S. does it have a single plate clutch? they have had problems, some got re-fitted with the old dual plate set up. I forget what year that was. the big problem? If he gets a flat tire he will have to remove the wheel then the TUBE, patch it and re-mount everything.. If he can find a used EV it would have tubeless rims thus he could plug it on the bike, fill and go!
  19. here's one link, http://www.guzzitech.com/FuelFiltAlt.html also mgcycle.com has a nice on line catalog.
  20. can you bring the needle back to neutral with a little turn of the balance knob for butterfly sync? with the control arm conected. I think it's the white thumb screw knob I'm thinking of.
  21. I almost lost my beloved Honda Trail 90 when the bearing cored out and nearly fell off.
  22. are your header pipes rattling against something or is the cross over broken?
  23. here's a thread I can relate to.
  24. Ok I froze my hands and feet in a rainstorm at 45 degrees F on the way home BUT I STILL LOVE IT!
