  1. What year wing, BTW? I put 1500 miles on a GL1800 with the wife on back and loaded bags. Probably close to 400lbs, never had any bottoming issues and I ran that thing pretty hard over three or four of the passes in the Sierra Nevadas.

    The thread subtitle says '92 GL1500. That's light years away from the one you rode.

  2. I'm watching just like the rest. I figure the engine rebuild stuff is inevitable with forced induction. It's nice to see someone that knows more about it go through it, though. It might cut the number of times I have to ask you stupid questions in the future. :icon_biggrin:

  3. I have ABE petal rotors in the front galfter in the rear, de linked, am running rc51 calipers with ebc hh pads, all braided lines and rc51 master cylinders.

    I have ZX14 stock rotors, calipers, and master cylinders with Spiegler stainless lines. So there. :icon_biggrin:

  4. That's in another post. Am I supposed to search all the posts before I ask?

    Ah, you are learning, Grasshopper. :icon_biggrin:

    Damn, come on over and let me buy you a beer...

    Drinks are on me, but you have to pay for the cab. :icon_biggrin:

  5. I've got the vacuum version, and it's been 100% since I put the vacuum canister and check valve on it... and that's been, what... 40k miles now...

    I assume you got the Audiovox ccs100? Does it work on the XX without the additional vacuum canister?

    Reading is fundamental.

  6. Make sure you install new washers and a fresh gasket.

    In a pinch, brake crush washers will work if you can't get fuel ones. Just use a dremel to hog them out a little bit.

    thanks, do you think I need a new gasket since it is only 1 week old and maybe 2 weeks by the time I get to it again??

    Put an eyeball on any parts that are almost new. You might be able to reuse them. With the leak, though, I'd be real careful about reusing the gasket.

  8. No XX its not a speedo issue as in needing correction, the pulse rate of our bikes is 80K per mile. Systems can't read it so unless you have a kit that can also use the tach signal you can't install it. The audiovox CCS100 uses both but it can have it's issues because of vacuum.

    You wouldn't need to use the speedo healer to fix your speedo, I'd just use it to fix the pulse rate to the cruse. Would be very simple a diode and the speedo healer would do it. I just wouldn't install it the way they say to, I'd install it between the VSS and the cruse module. Speedo healer is designed to modify the VSS signal.

    Or put a couple of T flipflops in before the vss signal goes to the cruise and you can do the same thing it needs, only for $1 in parts.

    Most don't have any trouble with vacuum as long as they also use a canister.

    Skull The unit I picked up is from Global Cruise AKA Rostra controls. They make the Vacuum and a DC stepper servo drive P/N 250-1316.

    Cool. Thanks! I'm experimenting with a homegrown fly-by-wire setup on a different project, and that could be very interesting.
