When this bike gets dialed in , you will really love it.

The only concern everyone has is : should the nut come loose to the point it falls off , the bolt would fall off and you're in trouble. Installing the bolt N to S ensures it will remain in place until you can tighten it and be on your way . This 10 yr old policy must mean they will look at your VIN plate to see the date of production to say "sorry it is now ten years and one month old , push it back out of the shop" . I would think there are more bikes on the road 10+ yrs. old v bikes under 10 yrs old. an absurd policy .

Looks good . Take off n throw rocks !

Listen , I helped him get it running . AFA I am concerned , I would get a GOOD ECU , have a good map installed and run it. I am sure no one would risk running this ecu and having it fail on the road . My days of pushing (British) motorcycles back to the house are long gone . You want to ride them uphill so WHEN they quit , you can ride your zero emission vehicle back home . There was this rich farmer that had an ultra-lite and he would fly by here a few times a week . this thing sputtered 10Xs worse than anything anyone on this forum has ever witnessed. The Lord God Jehovah , Yahweh , The Great I Am etc. kept this man alive to make it home every time. I would like to think He will help me but might say " Don't look at me I didn't tell you it would work" .

Did you install a new shift lever (30250832) and lever (30256925) ? This slack is what was causing the things to fall off. It was clamped as much as possible but wasn't getting tight.

IDK how much clearance you are working with , you may be able to install one conventional washer and make up the slack. How much clearance do you have ?

If you have lateral play in this shift rod , you can purchase machinery bushings and take up the side play . These are nothing more than washers in different i.d. and thickness to take up slack . Traditionally these were sold at farm equipment dealers and they might be "available" through Fastenal or an industrial supply house.

IDK if anyone where you live that repairs PC boards that can offer a spray to put on the board to stop / prevent any future problem(s) ? I am glad you got it started .

ok. I will check eBay w/the hopes someone has some to sell if I can't get some dimensions and come up w/something .

Thank you , Pete . I am gonna take the #s Docc posted from a workshop manual and see how much OEM tools are also ?

Does anyone know the o/s diameter of the "nuts" in the transmission ? I am going to try to find an affordable socket for this . I see Motion Pro sells some of these sockets.

now that was funny

Yep ! I though I remembered techs using vinegar to remove damage from D-cell battery leakage but I can't remember. Back in the mid 90s-2002 Ford p-ups would leak water through the windshield and drop onto the GEM / fuse box and cause ALL kinds of problems . You would tear into them and they would look 1000Xs worse than this . This is of course damage from water intrusion . Try to reseal as good as possible when going back together.

That one little connection looks sketchy but if you can live w/it .

. IDK what you can use to remove the oxidation ?

Good . Were you doing something else to this bike too ?

Ahhh. type in drop box in the search area (upper right portion) and it will show a compilation of drawings that Weegie compiled. Print all these off and use / keep them for when you need them .

Maybe there is a diagram on this Forum Kiwi_Roy had posted: V11 Sport ECU Test Point Layout dated May 12 2010. It has all wiring to the ECU and it's purpose . If you can't locate it , I have it in my paper library , I can take a pic and text it to you .

I forgot to ask , how long has this been a no-start ? .I hope you have the wiring diagram for the bike. there are a few differences through the years. I have replaced ECMs on automobiles through the years and the ones I was sure were bad turned out to be good and the ones I was unsure of were the bad ones . Take your time testing everything to be sure of powers / grounds and all the inputs . Make sure nothing caused this failure. Since the fuel pump "on" is the first thing to be activated , I am going to say the ecu is at fault.

I hope this works . click on the above link

I will post it in the a.m. Now , I buy the majority of tools from SnapOn so I am used to absurd prices BUT .

I can post this fact : $200+ and I don't think so I was going to find the diameter to verify the price.

I am working up an order on McMaster/Carr and they sell these sockets . I was going to get one for the future .
