Hey Doc, best I can tell it is all hooked up, per factory. I took it off my Ducati Monster, 2014. Sold that bike. The new bikes (some) the computer senses it is missing. I think a light comes on and stays on. Maybe once i get the LeMans all sorted out I will mess with this. I hate to throw another variable in the mix right now. So close to having it run great. Know what I mean? Gil

Geez, think this one comes from the tank, cant imagine anything but fumes goes thru it. Will run with it on, and off to see it there is a difference. Plugs into a barb, top of the canister.

Hey Chuck, I think part of my problem is the low fuel light came on, and I read stories about running out of gas in a hurry. So I came home, and dumped some Non Ethanol Premium gas (containing a fuel stabilizer that was probably on the heavy side on how much to use) . The computer and or sensors may not of liked that too much. So, took my truck and got some good fresh premium and filled it up. Ran pretty good today, only died once at throttle chop ,and went to 1000 RPM at stops and stayed there. The throttle bodies have been re balanced, but I have know Idea why the dealer did it at 1000 rpm. I did notice a hose off the charcoal canister while cleaning it, and stuck it back on the canister. So this ride I took the hose back off, cant imagine that helped anything unless it made a difference with it being off during re balancing. So, will continue to ride it, and get back to the dealer and get the idle up a tick and the book says Vac gauges need to be used to set idle correctly. Thanks, Gil

Thanks Doc, It is never simple for me! Will check this out. What RPM to you run yours?

Greetings Group, First, thank you for putting up my stupid questions. You guys have been great. So here is another one. My bike Idles at 1000 rpm. Sometimes even with the enrichiner on full the bike does not want to keep running while warming up. And after it is warmed up it Idles at 1000 rpm, and sometimes when coming to a stop, or corner, and the throttle is chopped and it dips a bit below 1000 rpm and recovers, or it may stall. I rode it Saturday and it was about 45 degrees F, ran great . Today it is 80 F and the Idle is down. How do I correctly kick the Idle up to 1100 rpm? It looks to me if I adjust one Idle stop screw the other Throttle Body will follow along. The manual says a vacuum gauge must be used to set the idle. Is this true even for a small change? I think if I get it up a tick it will help things. Thanks,

Think I found it, Hepco and Becker. Just need to verify for sure. Thanks, Gil

Thanks, hope so. Never seen one like this. Looks very well made and not too big. Just nice for a medium bag. Gil

Nice Docc, but looking for the back rack builder. Thanks

Greetings, Can anyone help with the model, brand , make and vendor of the rear rack and bag supports tor this 2002 LeMans? And the make of the bags to fit this. Looks well made. Picture attached, I hope. Regards, Gil

Good comments. Lets not use the term steer for motorcycles. Its not a car, the push right, left is easy to practice and will come natural when you need it. Riders do it riding everyday and are not even aware of it. In a panic situation it must become "natural". One mistake in a corner leads to many.

I think that is a good idea also. The V11 of mine is 16 years old now. Lubricants have come a long way in that time. I see in the manual they say a add "Moly" to the oil. Think it was for the rear drive. I would imagine there are synthetic gear lubes that are better now.

Thanks

You guys just use the Sig 3000 exclusively on the splines? What about for the grease fittings back there, same stuff? Thanks

Sorry I missed your message, but I have a set on the way. Thanks for the offer.
