Some ideas seem so brilliant on the front. Before the slippery slope presents . . .

I was able to get the WIX 51215 to come up for the 2000 H-D 883, but not the 1200.
1984-2007 H-D Sportster 883 ought to turn up a filter anywhere.

Tom's solution is the best I have seen, by far; assuming one wants to keep the original rod. (I do!
)I know a guy that has put some serious miles on a set of Delrin bushings. I'll have to check in with him for a report . . .

WIX application chart does not bring up the 51215 for me on the Ford 2.0 Transit Connect.
Earlier, I searched a bunch of Fords and Mazdas to find the 51215, but it never came up.

?I don't think I posted a crossover with the Wix..
True, that.
What year range Ford Transit Connect have the same oil filter that fits the V11?

Don't let those connectors keep you up at night.
Looking at the CO Fuel Trim can be done cold. Changing it with guzzidiag has to be done at operating temperature. Meinolf favors changing the CO Fuel Trim in the EEPROM, but that's outside my pay grade.
-
That is nicely done, Tom!
Would it benefit from some seals (O-rings?) on each side to keep the weather out?I've always thought properly dimensioned Delrin bushings would be ideal replacements. Cheap material, easy to work, press out the old ones, in with the new and *roberto è tuo zio.*
-
Those connectors are unused on the V11.
BTW, where did you find your CO Fuel Trim set?
-
I should have the bike on Monday.
Don has painted the gearbox housing and bracket (red). Everything is cleaned up and ready for assembly.
The bracket looks smaller than I imagined, I guess that its not 13 1/2 in but cm?
Haha - yeah, man: centimeters! Five and 1/3 inches . . .

All this Greenie Attitude is getting so thick and sticky . . . like hot zydeco on a sweaty bayou.

Martin,
Where did you find the CO to begin with?
Docc, it says 50 but can't tell if it's + or - 50.
Sorry docc, thought that was directed to me.
John
Not a problem. I'm always curious where we find the CO. I haven't looked at the that display in a while, but I recall the "minus" ( - ) being obvious. It certainly will be when you move the CO setting.
50, either way, seems kind of extreme . . .

If I had not seen so many relay failures on V11, I would be inclined to agree wholeheartedly.
So, not only is there sketchy empirical evidence, but also lots of marginal science.

Aw . . . aw, man . . . what a great guy . . .

Godspeed Bruce . . . .

Pretty sure I can improve on this set-up . . .

Custom gauges delivered: just over six weeks including the meticulous face design process.
Tonight, out comes the Dremel and the wire cutters . . .

so Docc, what s the significance of the build date? Are the frames built in New Zealand?
Inquiring minds want to know.
So, I noticed your Greenie has steel "flnned" exhaust flanges. Most V11 exhaust flanges are smooth alloy pieces. From that, I always thought your V11 was an early build and *might* have the very early "steeper triple clamps."
But my Sport was built March 2000, so I guess Luigi just wanted you to have those (beautiful!) finned exhaust flanges. Very, very unlikely you have the "steeper triples." Sounds like you just need to spec your springs and "set up" your suspension. (You'll be sooooo happy you did!)
My build tag says "MFD BY Moto Guzzi Co. ITALY" just above the inscribed build date, and "THIS VEHICLE CONFORMS TO ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARDS blah-blah-blah" . . .
This is on the metal tag on the left side of the frame head tube. So: frame (vehicle) Made in Italy.
There is a paper tag on the right side of the spine frame, but I can't see it with the tank on. Is that where you see the New Zealand wording?
[P.S. - The majority of US Federal labels were applied to my swingarm under the "hugger." My replacement swingarm, from Germany, has none of these stickers.]
-
Yeah, man, if you could gets springs spec'd for your weight-in-gear, and set the preloads for the "sags" it will transform the stability.
-
Correct: the [3 pin-> OBD] has 12 volt power clips, but the actual [OBD -> USB] has to be correctly FTDI chipped.
-
Nice LeMans!
Welcome!! -
I am hoping this thread serves to keep current sources for the cables around the globe.
-
Thanks for heads up on the availability. Let's see if we can scare one up stateside. I googled "3 pin to OBD cable" and see offerings from $4-6.
Be certain your Triumph cable is FTDI chipped.
New part for shift linkage?
