27 mm = 1.06299 " or 1-1/16" Yep. I should have gone out to the garage and looked at the one I have. Sigh.

It's sold. -
Make sure you check the simple things, too, like air pressure in your tires. How many miles on your XX? The plugs are due at 32k on an 01, but I've usually done mine about every 25k.

Yep...and you just planted your foot in it. SNAP! snap? why post pro oiler in this thread? You fucken oxygen thief Perhaps you should look at the video I quoted. That video showed the Totorro oiler nozzle failing when it got caught in the chain even though it was mounted as directed. I had similar issues with the bracket on the Pro-Oiler. Whey you pay $35 for a chain oiler, how high-end a product do you expect to get? If the Pro-Oiler had it's own issues at over $200, what do you think $35 will bring? There was a connection...you just get off calling people names rather than looking for it. your full of shit, in the 'video review' he said with reference to the installation " he made it up as he went along". Doesn't sound like he used the instructions. Not having any instructions to look at he has obviously done something wrong , comparing the pics from the website shows one situation where the nozzle is mounted similar to the example in the video. I had a Scott Oiler and it mounted in the same way, using cable ties. I changed that for a Pro Oiler and using the self tapping screws that were provided it has stayed on the swing arm for about 4-5 years. ever heard the saying" better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than open it and remove all doubt. this applies directly to you are you sure it's not you in the video? cause he's a fuckwit as well. anyhow my point is why would you bring up an oiler system that has nothing to do with what the thread is about a about a group buy t. that is all I apologize for trashing up this thread. Edited: You two should meet in person. My money's on Mac. Just sayin'

Is she hot? I have some ladies gloves (ICON) that I'll toss in when I go to RedNeXXt. If they fit her, great. If not, I'll get them from you at PriXXs -
Will have to do search on here...don't know how to check. Follow the RED wire from the battery... it runs to a rubber mounted block on the left side of the battery box, with a red cap over a fuse. That's the main fuse. There's a starter solenoid next to it.

Don't feel bad, Joe. I think the situation on the track is extreme enought that a weak BAS that works perfect on the street could be a failing one on the track. I may take the one that Phillip has and use it as a spare. I've checked with my local stealer, and it's a $100 part. New might be a good plan in this case. If it turns out I don't need it, I'll return it to him along with a stack of cheese curds.

Yes, please. Send away. Need my address? I compared the action of the one on it with the one on the XX. If you shake the on on it side to side, you can audibly hear the pendulum clunk. Not so with the one on my XX. You put your hot dog in your dad's gas tank? Didn't that hurt? I originally thought it might be something like this, as the problem in August happened right after I refuelled the tank in between sessions. I've been through the vent line, it's fine. There's no kinks/bends in the line, and if you blow air goes through to the tank. I would also expect that something like that would be more of a loss of engine power failure, not a "it just quit".

My thought was that sensor was going off way too easily. I don't want to disable the sensor, I just want it to work as expected. I loosened it, started the bike, tilted it left and at about 45 degrees the bike stopped. Cycle the key, start the bike, tilt it right, and at about 60 degrees the bike stopped. Wasn't very consistent, though... sometimes left would go 60-70 degrees, sometimes it would quit at 45. I realize when the bike's cornering there are other forces at work. The strange thing is that when the bike would quit for me, it was after a long hard mostly straight high RPM patch. I'd get off the gas and on the brake, then when I'd get back on the gas for the corner, the bike's not running. I thought fuel pump, vapor lock, etc, but would have thought that would have other symptoms. I've been through the electrical/ground etc stuff, but will probably do it again just in case.

Interestingly enough, it is the same part number. 35160-MBW-D21 Just looked it up. If you're willing to part with it, I promise a reach around and reimbursement for postage. Got my address?

Last year (August?) I did a track day (at Blackhawk) and the bike just died (in between turn 6, while braking before turn 7). Engine idiot lights indicate power, but bike not running. I put my hand up, coasted down the pit lane, and eventually the bike fired back up. I checked the bike over, went back out, and the bike died in the same place. Since it was the afternoon session, I just decided to call it a day (it's an OMEN!). I went through the kill switch, it's clean, went through the wiring harness, and I don't see anything wrong. Checked the kickstand switch, it seems fine, too. Bike runs great on the street, Forrest rode it at WiXX, not a lick of trouble. Fast forward to RacerXX... I rode it all day on Friday and Saturday morning, and then Chris took it out, and it died on him. He wasn't able to get it restarted, so they went to pick him up at the end of the session. When we got it in the pits, it fired right up. So the only suspect thing on the bike has been the bank angle sensor. I bought this bike from Joe after Griff crashed it at NeXXt. The BAS has a broken tab, but Joe had expertly re-attached the BAS with a zip tie, it is rock solid. Last night I pulled it, and was able to confirm basic operation: If you start the bike, turn the sensor on the side, the bike stops. No amount of thumbing the starter will start the bike (although I didn't wait like a minute with the key on) until you cycle the key, then it fires right up. I'm thinking it's a $100 part, and worth replacing since it has a broken tab and is suspect. But I'm also taking other suggestions of things to investigate. Thoughts?

2002 Silver XX Plastic Set for sale

PM Sent, too. Dibs if the first guy doesn't work out. -
I'm running a Rick's in my 2002, with no problems whatsoever. They put the proper connector on based on the year you buy, and it matches up to the OEM. That having been said, the connector on mine eventually ended up being loose, got hot and eventually cooked one of the 3 leads. I decided that rather than fuck around with it, I would just cut and solder the wires after putting them together with a western union splice: It took a while to solder, as those are some big wires and it took a bit to get them hot enough for the solder to flow. I then covered the wires with heat shrink tubing to keep them from grounding out. So far, it's worked flawlessly.
