Please can someone tell me what to do with these...
They're obviously air sensors of some sort. I've just removed the airbox from my Speedmaster EFI. Should I just tie them somewhere under the seat, stick 'em in something, or junk them altogether??
The first one is the Atmospheric pressure sensor and the second the IAT, Intake air temperature sensor.
You'll find another two components identical with the pressure sensor, just above the throttle bodies. They're the MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensors. Don't tamper with them or their hoses if you can help it.
The first one is fixed to the chasis, leave it more or less where it is and ensure the open spigot is not blocked by anything. The second needs to be fixed somewhere near the air intake to the Throttle bodies, in a place where it doesn't get the full blast of engine hot air but where it can sense the ambient temperature.
If you have pod filters with a metallic rear plate this sort of fixing for the IAT is ideal:
Thanks guys. I've completely removed the airbox and I'm going for the "open" look with K&N pod filters, so I'll attach the IAT sensor to one of them as per the linked thread.
This is where the AP sensor was originally so I guess I'll find a spot under the seat and tie it to the frame.
I switched out my stock handlebars for mini ape's, changed to extended cables with the exception of the throttle cables, plan to just ran out of time. Also didnt put oil in the front brakes after switching cable.
Ran up the road 2 miles to see if I adjusted the bars to a comfortable spot, on my...
I've never installed a sidecar before. I rode an outfit around last year which was fun, it was a 1979 Suzuki GS850G with an American Spirit Eagle - basically just served to find out whether I would like sidecar-ing, which I do. So I pulled the trigger on a brand new Watsonian Squire Grand Prix...
How often do you folks change that front fork oil.
I've got 35,000 miles on an 2007 with factory fork oil.
Some folks out here in California say it never need change because of the dry climate.
I'm probably going to change it this week sometime because I've got one of them Harbor...
Hoping that someone out there can be of assistance.
My pride and joy is a 2006, 865 Bonneville black. The bike has about 80,000 kms (50,000 m), it has developed a very annoying intermittent problem. While riding along, in fact even on occasions while idling the bike will suffer a total loss of...
Looking to see if any of you guys done one. 2015 Scrambler and I got the motogadget tiny and m-tri from Baak out of France. They wire the m-tri so it’s plug and play.
Everything is connected and I turn on the key, gauge comes alive, turn signals work but the fuel pump didn’t come on and the...
