Thanks for that Scott

I've got the starter and the alternator out at the moment (as well as that bloody stupid ABS 2 pump) . . . so I'll have to wait to carry out those tests. I've tested the start ...

Thanks for the heads up . . .

They all check out fine . . .

I thought I had fixed this . . .

The bike hasn't been running for about a month, but the battery has been in the house regularly connected to the CTEK conditioner.

Put the battery back in the bi ...

Is there anyone out there who has a cure for this problem ?

On connecting the battery, the clock springs into action and happily starts winding in minutes through the 24 hour clock, but on turning ...

Hi Duck,

Thanks for that, it's plugged a gap in my knowlege.

I'll most probably use the conversion described in the link you sent me.

Once again, many thanks for your help.

Thanks for the link, but I take it that means no you can't modify it. . . or am I wrong thinking the BMU is involved with the ABS check at start up ?

Like almost everyone else, I've changed all the filament bulbs (except the dash) for LED's and am now dealing with the results. I've sorted out the indicator flasher relay, but the red warning triangl ...

Forgot to say . . .

. . when removing the tank, don't forget to disconnect the fuel gauge sender . . . there's a black (on mine) electrical four pin plug on the right of the bike, just in front ...

I used a soldering (I think you guys call it sodor) iron with a flat tip on the end, the sort that the arty types use to scorch names and letters onto wood with. I placed some similar plastic on the c ...

Apologies about the very late addittion . . . but I thought I'd show you what I did when I was faced with the same problem.

Adding a Fender Extender only made the problem worse, so having fretted f ...

Hi Lee,

I've had a Starcom Advance (Digital) for a few years now, and last year I went mad and bought a couple of Shark Evolines with the Sharktooth system.

I had to get two of the Starcom Wire ...

Hi FrasMac,

Positive lot these Colonials aren't they ?

I think you have the makings there of a wonderful project . . . are you intending to do a ground up restoration ? Or just footer wi' bits ? ...

I think I ought to charge a fee for this . . .

Hi . . .

I thought I'd throw in my creation for consideration . . .

I'm also the proud owner of an old Tom Tom 520 (as well as a K1100LT), which amazingly still works fine. A couple of years ago ...

Hi Gladders,

I discovered your post on the radio swap, during a terminally boring stint of work.

I have an LT SE as well and want to replace the original radio/cassette which is only capable of ...

Oh yes . .

I've been damned for some considerable time now. It's all a question of maintaining standards . . apparently.
