  1. Post your Voltmeter mount pics 14 Jul 2017 19:25 Haha... Yeah. All the discussion on R/R failing made the R1 piece and this meter the first mods I did. But I didn't want to spend too much money on my first attempt putting a meter on. So this was the result. Working…
  2. Post your Voltmeter mount pics 14 Jul 2017 16:23 Here's mine. Cheapo eBay meter and I bent a wire hanger to secure it to one of the tank bolts. [image: IMG_20170714_120622.jpg] [image: IMG_20170714_120657.jpg]
  3. Helmet-friendly bluetooth earbuds? 1 Apr 2017 00:05 9 hours ago, duccmann [image: IMG_0073.JPG] Been using these the last year, charge with your laptop and very happy. Great sound and think I paid $35 at wallyworld Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk They do not get…
  4. The Drill 24 Feb 2017 20:48 Didn't realize it's been this long... I installed r1 RR, soldering the wires, over the winter. Just ran through the tests and everything came within range as listed. Thanks for your help, mello.
  5. Stator Tests 6 Nov 2016 19:18 That's what I was thinking as well... I'll double check with my voltmeter. Read online that I can check by starting and revving the engine, seeing where the voltage is at. Any opinions on that method?
  6. The Drill 6 Nov 2016 16:54 Thanks, mello. I skipped straight to the resistance test figuring the batt was fine. Stopped by the local auto store this morning, and turns out the batt is in need of change. Thought it was fine as I've had no problems…
  7. Stator Tests 6 Nov 2016 16:52 14 hours ago, thtanner You test VAC between the 3 legs. You want to see 20vac at idle and 50vac+ at 5k rpm across all 3 (A to B, B to C, A to C) Thank you. I actually went to the local auto store to check my battery…
  8. The Drill 6 Nov 2016 02:15 Thanks for posting this. For stator test, what if resistance shows -000 for all three wires? Indication of user error, or bad stator? Thanks.
  9. Stator Tests 5 Nov 2016 15:51 I tested my stator this morning, per instructions found elsewhere. Battery checked at 12.8, after full charge off the bike and left hooked up to the bike overnight. Ohms reading is -00.0 across all terminals. I have not…
  10. Returning Rider: VFR 800 or 1200? 3 Nov 2016 07:42 I just bought a 2000 yellow recently, and have the super MOSFET kit and a bottle of dielectric grease in the mail today. Soldering kit and a voltmeter already ordered (thanks for the reminder on that Duc2V4). Bike has…
  11. NEVER STOP LEARNING 3 Nov 2016 07:00 5 hours ago, timmythecop https://www.ridelikeapro.com/ Awesome. Thank you.
  12. NEVER STOP LEARNING 2 Nov 2016 15:17 Very cool. I wonder if there are similar training courses available to the average folk.
  13. REBUILDING MY '96 4 Feb 2012 20:41 Wow, nice. It's great seeing what others are doing with their bikes here. Wish I had the facilities you have.
