Best i have found is Permatex Plastic Weld. It contains the compound methyl methacrylate which is what you will find in industrial plastic bonders. I repaired my headlight mounting studs with it and it's still holding after 2 years. JB weld marine putty let go inside a year :(

I bought a used mid pipe and cat for my S1 to experiment with this. I knocked out the catalytic element and installed the pipe, only thing I got was a tiny bit louder but massive vibrations. Vibration went away when the stock pipe and cat went back in.

Standard operating characteristics as far as i can tell. Mine does the same when it gets colder, takes a minute or two but it creates a pretty good plume of white!

Sounds correct to me. H7 in the left, low only and on all the time. H4 in the right, low not connected (by default) high on with high beam switch.

I found I had to remove the muffler to make room to remove the cat, I was also removing my shock at the time. Pulling the cat took some effort, but it came eventually

I put together a 2x4 box (log cabin style) a little higher than the center of the bike, tipped it up on the sidestand and had a helper position the block roughly where the center stand bolted up. Pay attention to where the weight is bearing. I had my swingarm off a little while ago (also an 04)...

Disassembled and cleaned swingarm, bearings, tube and seals. Blasted and cadmium plated bolt to deal with corrosion. Lubricated everything now just waiting for my new chain and sprockets before everything goes back together.

I had a game stopper when i didnt have a 3/4" hex to torque the front axle with, also a 32mm (i think) socket to torque the rear. Brake bleeder Diy quad manometer to balance the throttle bodies

What did you use to heat it up? Torch? Heat gun? Likely dong mine this winter, useful bit of information!

Arrived exactly as described. Pleasure to deal with you. Thanks again! Jamie.

Heres what mine looked like.

I created one of these by forgetting to remove the retaining ring before slide-hammering the fork tube out. Replaced the bushings, seals and washer after that one. Luckily didn't damage anything major.

Solved. These are a Watsen Design product drom about 6 years ago. Design current of about 1.5A

My google-fu and ebay searching have failed me so far. nothing even remotely close to it. Figuring out the drive current is less about getting it to just work, and more about knowing the maximum power rating for the particular chip being used. Initial testing gave me a pretty typical forward...

Hi Guys, I am trying to identify the below turn signals I acquired them second or third hand. I have no idea who made them or anything. They are rather bright, single-chip LED and in a cast housing. They will be going on my bike as soon as I figure out how to drive them properly Thanks...

I have a set from TheRetrofitSource that i have been running in my truck for the last 3 years with good results, one lamp and one relay failure in that time. I am planning to do a dual projector install this winter, probably wont bother with angel eyes tho.

You should be in the ballpark, 4k of resistance in a 14v system brings you well under 3mA, plenty low enough, 1/4 watt would have been fine, 1/2 watt gives you some flexibility for later. I suspect you won't stop here. Looks like you're going to start a little electronics toolbox, good way to...

I can't do a partial quote from my phone, but in reference to the lamp. Internally if you were to take it apart you should find that there is at least 1 Light Emitting Diode and at least 1 Resistor. This is so that we can simply connect the assembly to 14v and it will work properly. If we...

You are all on the right track, you will have to play with the resistance to get the desired dim level. I do not have the same lamps you are using, so I tried to get as close as I could. This is a simple solution, but has the limitation that it needs to be built specifically for your scenario...

Tried out the idea seems to work well All I am doing is mixing the two signals (running lights and turn) together with diodes, the running lights are routed through a resistor and diode to the led assy, and the turn signal bypasses the resistor through another diode. I found that I needed a...
