no clue... I work with glass not plastic.

If you got glass scratches I can help.

Typical flyers fan nothing useful ever

 

So it was nice out today and did not go away boarding this weekend
So decided to button up the bike
After the motor swap i had some issues
With stalling on hard barking and if leaning bike to right side
I suspected it was the choke
So i ordered a choke knob to eliminate the cable

Swapped in a new oil cooler
And hooked up all wiring and phone mount, installed the vapor unit, aux charge ports usb and cig, trickle charger hookup
Small fuse block, changed the oil twice and filter too
Only very minimal metal shavings on first change and only on drain plug
Nothing on oil filter magnet
Bike runs great now
I might go with a pumper carb, when i install my dg exhaust next week
Some pics from the day
Choke tube, very gummed up



Choke cable
Was not even functioning

New choke knob
Problem is when i put my huge gas tank back on its buried hahahaha

Here is the vapor mounted up
Might move it around a little bit
I kept the stock speedo for know
I may eliminate it in future

Mounted the lifeproof motorcycle mount
I may move it around a bit
But dam i am loving this thing


Here is the usb and cig outlet
I may install a switch to this
I have been hearing usb may draw some while not in use
I will check that with a meter tomorrow


Here is all 3 things installed

I was a bit unhappy the wire for the temp sensor was not a foot or more longer
I may cut it some time in future
And make it longer




My mini bike fuse block
I love this thing has a 40 max draw
Perfect, perfect, perfect
A great $20 spent




Here is my trickle charger hook up
No more popping the seat off to get to it
Wooot

And this is where i hooked up the rmp's
Unsure may tap into coil wire at another time
We shall see

Then i jb welded the magnet to the rotor
And drilled the caliper mount and installed sensor
Over all not hard at all
The hard part will be programing this and learning how to use all its functions

 

Nice work, looks like you took advantage of the sunny day!

 

Hell yea
Not to mention a few nice rides between oil changes
Dam oil is costly

 

Update
I changed the plugs
Wasn't bad
Cleaned up the coil bolts
Looked worse then it was
A few plugs were to freaking tight
Dint think someone used antisieze or they were original
Unsure
Rusted coil bolts

This is how i instal the new ones

Here is the old plugs


Also did an oil change
Oil looked brand new, but i decided to change it anyway so i know its been done
I do need a bigger oil pan tho
Almost over flowed 6-6.5 q

Installed my ez drain
Love this thing




Still got the wet carpet thing going on
Checked the radiator and it was right to the top
Ac drain - i have yet to see it drip


Tried to clear drain with this but could only get it in 5"
(Let the jokes fly)

Wanted to cleanup the headlights
Took seriously 2 mins to go from this

To this meguires plastic polish and a rag

Finished installing my moog bushings in my lcas

This is how i do them "install"

I picked up some of this but haven't used it yet

Anyone know what this is
Block drain?




Still didn't get around to removing sway bars
Diff fluids
Install of diff skid
Always another day

 

Make sure the AC drain is connected in the footwell. Not sure if it's the same or similar, but on my truck there's a rubber fitting that goes through the firewall and is just slip fit onto the condenser in the passenger footwell. Mine got disconnected somehow and was dripping in the cab.
