Happy Birthday Boss

Each Cylinder will be in a different state of the combustion cycle

So Exhaust valves on one cylinder will be closed and another cylinder the exhaust valves will be open or partially opening/closing

Always worth keeping a couple of these

I just replaced an old one with this guy and postage was really fast

Good Job

Diagnosing engine sounds via recordings is always tricky......they rarely sound like they do in real life,

pull the plug and put a pic up here, did it have problems before you had carb cleaned?

Did you clean it or a Pro?

Hello BTW

I also have put a brand new carb in it.

Go back a step

Waiting for [mention]Bender[/mention] to pop up

Lets see how funny an AI can be

I do meals on wheels deliveries. I can see me in ten years time, being driven from drop to drop by a driverless car

Wont happen seeing as a hot meal is only a part of the service you provide

Some of them must really look forward to seeing a friendly face every day......they cant chat to a robot........although I do tell my Roomba its a dick sometimes

Well Done Guys

So here's a tale.

Been away for a couple of nights with Lisa. Runswick bay.

Anyway we went the scenic route up and stopped at Pickering for some dinner.

Parked up on the pavement as you do next to 4 other bikes.....

Only been stopped for 2 mins.

Traffic warden appears starts wailing at us and the 4 approaching fellow bikers who turned out to be a support club for a well known patch club predominantly based in Glasgow n Bradford.

Go to move the bike n the bloody things dead.....

4 said "scary bikers" push us down the high street trying to get it bumped.

Won't happen.

One of them produces some jump leads.

Half hour later all is well.

Bikes started.

Top lads

I broke down the other week (my fault) not one biker stopped to help despite me having my tank on the prop, although to be fair they were all small bikes and I assume they wouldnt know were to start (or maybe a bit scared to ask me if I needed help)

Van turns up with two HA looking types offering to help me out, they were nice helpful guys, but by then I was about 200 yards from my friends garage

A Busa with a Full tank is a hard push!

On reflection im glad it isnt a Triumph Rocket 3

Timing is slightly advanced which is where the high Psi is produced

I have new Heavy duty cables too

The engine is seriously hard to turn over by hand with plugs in, Its running the way I wanted it too

24v Starter system works really well, as you can hear on the video, and I had to use it before I broke a tooth on my starter clutch (I have checked it & ok)

The last diagram connects 24v when the button is pressed and then goes to seperate battery charging when engine running

As some of you know After I finished my engine work my bike was hard to start with lots of starter clutch kickback

a 24v starting system was the answer

Bike has a Li-ion battery which should be enough to start 200+ Psi, but wasnt (a normal battery just clicks)

At the moment Im using the below method, however this has its downside of having to charge #2 battery with a tender or charger and "if" you let #2 battery discharge to empty the system wont start......stuck by the road but in reality it would have to be heavily discharged

I will be upgrading to a system that auto charges both batteries when all the parts come, and I will update accordingly

This consists of a Magnecraft 92S11D22D Relay wired as below

I dunno 'Busa... When was the last time you tucked in on a small bike? Streamlining makes a good deal of difference on low powered bikes.

Now I think of it [mention]Mr Fro[/mention] is right,

Its been Decades since I rode anything lower than an 850 but I do remember more speed when tucked in

A 13 tooth on front will sharpen it up a bit,

Is it worth buying an exhaust that may or may not increase power? same for carb.

But if you dont have any worry about legal requirement where you are why not just buy a bigger bike?

Plastics do make a difference on top speed on a big bike BUT probably not a lot on a small bike

Is refusing to enter anywhere that has a Ouija board a phobia? (or has had one) even if its in the Loft

I blame watching "the Exorcist" when I was 9! .......I still wont watch it now .even though I watch much worse horrors now

Even Odder when I consider that I dont believe in life after death

And a last question. Was my english good or bad? Im training for my english test as well.

Pretty good actually!

Well This looks easy and a damn site cheaper than £200 for a made up harness

Thanks to a member of www.psychobike.com called "Quicker Gixxer"

The Absolute IDIOT (Me) who went out with the secondary battery flat, assuming power would pass through battery #2 and it would still start.(after stopping to do tyres)......NOPE,

So had to push the bloody heavy Busa one mile back to my friends garage

Lesson Learnt, Wont be making that mistake again

A pretty exhausting test of system

Next project make a harness that charges both batteries

Is it Torqued to the right lb's

I worked with some HA on the V festival in 1999 and the guys were decent enough.........the total Dick heads were the ones trying to be in the HA.....what a bunch of absolute twats they were

Tie back the lever over night

Bungee strap or anything that works

Throttle body cleaned and re-assembled, and everything is back where it should be... almost.

Just a Quick one mate

If you have bike run Rough at low/mid revs when its back together....(sometimes very rough)

It could be the throttle bodies badly out of sync after being put back together

Something to be aware of..... and its an easy problem to sort...... but if you dont know about it you could be disheartened

just a heads up

I would say yes

If bike runs fine without TPS connected then it wont make a difference if you buy the none TPS variety

I haven't cleaned the air filter, but it's only about 6 months old.

Still Worth checking

Sounds like the jet hole might have been cleaned with a needle.......and probably expanding the hole so too much fuel is getting in

I've cleaned the carb twice. The problem is it's running too rich, but no amount of adjustments makes it run leaner, it's always rich and just cuts out after a minute or so riding, if i can even get it started.

Stupid Q but have you cleaned the Air Filter?
