superhawk996 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 If the charging system is 'leaking' AC into the system could it be messing with the ignition system and cause this? Mostly aimed at Mike, I think he's the most likely to have an answer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALCXX Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 That had crossed my mind also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomek Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Well, sure fix would be Gixxer motor swap. I don't miss electronics of 70's and 80's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXitanium Posted August 30, 2022 Author Share Posted August 30, 2022 Fish on! (As in I am the fish) You don't get it. 40 year old bike - engine has six pipes blasting out the front - the engine is a stressed member of the frame. The sound is music. The community have created a Kawasaki alternator conversion "kit". TOMEK ...go buy a new bike if that's what you want. It will be easier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXitanium Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 Why are you still riding old bikes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomek Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Not much going on race replica front. 2022 r1 is almost the same as 2015, and so on. SPORT-touring is dead, totally uninterested in Adv bike. Styling of most of Japanese bikes sucks big time right now, totally. I can go on. But thanks for asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXitanium Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 Why we like our old rusty useless CBXs. You answered your own question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unique inline 6 sound. I was, of course, trolling. But you knew it from the get go. Btw, that explains my current nondirt bikes. Vfr12f has narrow angle V4 with unequal length primaries. Sounds like nothing else on the planet, although kinda trashy. Crossplain R1, I could blip the throttle all day. Sounds that good. Telepathic throttle to rear wheel connection. After 300k miles on various "regular" inline 4s I want something else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
