  1. Yes, the idea is to build what is known as a "buck"regulator, this is a device that converts an arbitrary voltage down to some fixed level. It uses a magnetic core ( inductor) and some high speed switches to shift the voltage without very much loss. the trouble is making one to work with the fairly high voltage the Bird will put out, and handle the fairly high output current.

    Throw a few diodes (one for each phase) and a big capacitor in front of this and you're mostly there. I'd have to go research a good PWM IC, since it's been awhile.

  2. And I have a great idea,,,I think, in relation to the oiling on the turbo, using the cooler lines to feed and return the oil. Just not sure if you can do without the oil cooler in the lines. I think I would leave the cooler after the turbo. and back in to the motor....

    That's an interesting idea. I think you'll find the way they ran them on mine interesting as well. We'll pull the fairing at Josh's Thursday so you can take a peek.

  3. You should be able to hide one of the smaller bottles in the tail section. It might require a bit of creative plastic tray rearrangement to do it.

    I plan to hide mine under the gas tank where the airbox used to be. :icon_thumbsup:

  4. I think they pretty much all replace lines one-to-one. I recall having to spend some time figuring it out, but it wasn't too hard. The only major difference that I recall is the front line routing is more elegant than stock.
