    Intro and new guy question

    Nope, it will be just fine. The 141 is only slightly longer in practice than a 137". The viper is a reliable machine, perfect for anyone who isn't after that turbo rush.

    Motogp is fantastic entertainment

    That is interesting, I had not heard that. Maybe the 2027 bikes are the right entry point for them. Would not make sense before then.

    Motogp is fantastic entertainment

    I would love it if BMW joined motogp but I doubt they will. The 1000rr is a great machine and it does well against the competition no matter where it is raced but I cannot see BMW building a one-off for MotoGP as it wouldn't be commercially relevant to them. It suprises me that they have such...

    Motogp is fantastic entertainment

    Those 2024 ducatis just have too much grunt. You can see Pecco and Jorge put 5 bikes on Marc without even trying. 5/10ths between Pecco and and Marc and anther few 10ths to the next fastest 2023. Just shows what an advantage the 2024s have over the 2023s and how good Marc is compared to the...

    '06 Apex in cool street car...how to clear codes when wiring all modified? Anyone? Lg wires for thumb and Yr for grip

    Because he is complaining that it isn't running off idle. "Starts and idles fine, but when I try to raise the RPM it start to surge and misfire." I am just passing along what I would do, wire in a switch to clear the codes and figure out what the engine is really complaining about.

    EPS Conversion?

    Because of two reasons. One, your horn is not a constant use circuit and two, they don't care about voltage drop for the horn. This is a case of the problem is self regulating. In the chart below you can see that for a non-critical electrical circuit (horn) and using 10% voltage drop as the...

    '06 Apex in cool street car...how to clear codes when wiring all modified? Anyone? Lg wires for thumb and Yr for grip

    Clear the codes. Once you clear the codes you can narrow down the problem. For tips on installation in other vehicles you might want to check the airplane forums that use the Yamaha motors. These guys used to make a kit. http://bdturnkeyengines.com/yamaha-apex The engine doesn't know whether...

    EPS Conversion?

    A vehicle sold in NA has to meet NA standards regardless of where the wire or fuse comes from. The fuse is there to protect the circuit, no engineer is going to over rate the fuse just to keep it from blowing because they know the wire would become the fuse. If you want to be sure, you can...

    '06 Apex in cool street car...how to clear codes when wiring all modified? Anyone? Lg wires for thumb and Yr for grip

    In the 06 service manual, under grip warmer system, that wire does nothing. As previously stated, if you are having a performance problem, the grip warmer codes can be ignored. The only codes that matter are the sensors related to fuel/air/timing. To clear the codes, wire up a switch as shown...

    No idea, I don't have that schematic or service manual. What year is this?

    EPS Conversion?

    I had a look at the wiring diagram for a newer sled. It shows the EPS sharing power with rest of the direct connect accessories on the Red/White wire. I just went out and pulled the fuse block out of my sled, and flipped it over to see what ga wire is feeding the 30amp main sled fuse and it...

    I would be shocked if it is 12 awg for 50 amps.

    If you are looking at 17 hanging off the ECU in the drawing you posted, those look like the actual grip heaters (resistive heating elements). The grip warmer switch is on the right of that drawing. I only have the service manual for the 2006-2010 and 2013 models, both of which show the grip...

    Looks like #8 under there. I take that back, it could be anything inside that insulation, you cannot judge by how it looks.

    '06 Apex in cool street car...how to clear codes when wiring all modified? Anyone? Lg wires for thumb and Yr for grip

    If you have a switch wired properly, you should be able to clear the codes. No idea beyond that.

    EPS Conversion?

    10Ga will pass 30 amps all day long in a DC circuit as long as you are not concerned about voltage drop. If you factor in voltage drop, 10ga is borderline in even very short runs. The break-over point for 30 amps is 15 feet depending on connectors, etc, when you consider targeted voltage drop...
