Let me say that changing parts willy nilly is not the proper procedure to go through, but I won't dwell on that. So it sounds like we have a...
The next day, a room temp reading of my 86 coils is 500/504 ohms. Lets apply some deductive reasoning here. You say your bike runs fine until...
I had to ride my 86 over to my brothers house to use his multimeter (couldnt find mine) so the hot reading was 627/630 ohms. I'll try and get a...
A1gatorz, since your problems occur after the bike warms up have you tested your original pick up coils after heating them? I would then heat test...
I personally was thinking your old ones are still good and your problem is else where. Yeah, 360 ohm is below spec, but they are both the same....
I used another tank of gas and the mileage is even better. The fuel light came on at 131, I switched to reserve at 143. This is great, but can...
This is just a fuel mileage update. With my needles in the same position (same as when I got the bike 3 years ago) I recorded the last 2 tanks of...
Okay, I just read of an even cheaper and easier way to check if the pipe joints are leaking. Warm up the engine and just generate a little bit of...
Dab, on another forum, suggested muffler tape and clamps. Now that's not a pretty or permanent solution, but it should work for only $5. I'm...
Hey, oil mist. Sounds good to me. Better than letting it rust. :peaceful: It sounds like you need to change all fluids including brakes and...
It's good to hear you got it running. I'll try and give you some info on these bikes. The fuel pump voltage is regulated through a safety...
Now that I think about it, if the 86 bikes fire once per cycle and the 87-89 fire twice per cycle then it's possible the 87-89 tachs would read...
Hey, that's great. Thanks a lot. I did a lot of searching for wiring diagrams for our model bike, but when I found them the links were dead...
That's the "86 only" UK or European book. There is no 87 specific info in it. No US specific stuff either. Most of the info in there is good...
You may be right. I may get it sealed up and it would sound exactly the same. I've heard that enlarging the pilot jet a size or two should fix...
I'm not sure what you mean, but I'm guessing you mean to hammer the copper into a thin strip and then force it into the gap between the pipes?...
There is plenty of room. I think the gap is about 10mm. The silicone tubing wall thickness is 5mm and the clamp will squeeze it, so that's not a...
It's just 2 pipes slipped together. The smaller pipes OD is 35mm and the larger pipes OD is 38mm. I guess you could say the wall diameter is 1.5mm...
I'm still not understanding. Do you guys have a picture or description of the seals your referring to? I've looked extensively on google and eBay...
That's what I'm looking for. Have you seen any?
