  1. Maybe this technology is, at best, "Artificial Decision" (AD) with "intelligence" being a long way off, and likely a perpetual misnomer.
  2. Pretty sure I'm not Geek Qualified, but agreed. The distinction I would make between AI (artificial intelligence) and CG (computer generated) is decision making. Trusting a vehicle's sensors and interpretive systems to operate the vehicle is "AI", IMO. Generating an image, video, or voice narration digitally remains CG/computer generated as the software behind the generation is still built by human software engineers and is not making any decisions for us. To anchor this back to this music thread, it reminds me of my drummer friend's opinion about drum machines. He said something like, "Yeah, they keep perfect time, but they've got no soul." Real drummers make decisions. The hallmark of "intelligence." "The [drummers] here can set me straight."
  3. @Weegie to the rescue with links to both @Kiwi_Roy's diagrams and @callison's content (hosted on Gregory Bender's thisoldtractor ), as well as linking to @stewgnu's diagrams for the later V11:

    Just your consent to move these wiring diagram posts/links to their own thread.
  6. I know this is just "splitting hairs", but wouldn't the more accurate term be "CG" (computer generated) for these images and voice overs we are seeing, and hearing, more and more of?

    Wiring Diagrams

    Wow, @Weegie, what a great resource putting that all together! I suggest we put that post in "How To" as a reference, if you are up for that? edit: There are also @stewgnu's wiring diagrams for the 2002 and later V11 wiring including one showing the additional to address "Startus Interuptus" . . .
  8. Offender identified and blocked. Account deleted. Do not hesitate to report this kind of activity so that we can act on it swiftly. Thank you @HadaDaytona for the assistance!
  9. Tchaikovsky it is, then. At about 3:17, when the trippy Fantasia thistles go all Cossack, I feel mySport ripping off into the hillsides and along the creeks. All the melody up until then is just adjusting valves, seeing to tire pressures, and charging the battery . . .
  10. Disney's Fantasia is an amazing compilation of music with animated video. And, hey: 1940!! Tchaikovsky ?
  11. I know this is just a matter of semantics and terminology, but to clarify: When a member uses "Message" on this platform (within the forum structure), no one else can see the content besides the participants. This is also referred to as "PM" (Personal Messenger or Private Message) and sometimes "DM" (Direct Message). Even as a Moderator, I cannot see this content. What we can all see is each member's topics, posting, and replies. An unwelcome, registered member may (likely) have seen @HadaDaytona's "Wanted" topic ( . . ."Just bought a front fairing for a 1997 Daytona RS" . . .) and two other inquiries seeking parts on Classifieds. In this case, the unwanted user likely "Messaged" our member with the external email contact information. Again, this is strictly a Red Flag and should be reported by clicking the "Report" button on the message. Also, for clarification, please know that your email address is only seen by the Admin and the Moderator. No member can see another's email unless a member posts it here. Further, please know that software developers can parse our paltry attempts to veil our email or phone numbers when we post something like "bobseven- at_geewhiz-mail-" or whatever. Or phone numbers mixed with words and numerals: seven 5 one two 3 4 eight nine 7 6 (for example). A senior software engineer once looked at me quizzically and said, "You don't think we can figure that out ?"
  12. If anyone is contacted on the forum's Personal Message system with an email contact, please go to that message a click "Report" so the Admin can deal with the user. The tip-off is always "I have a friend" or "I have an uncle", rather than "here is my email address." All members, please note this post pinned in the "Wanted" classifieds:
  13. For so long, I tried memorize the phrase, "MV Augusta Turismo Veloce Otto Cento Lusso " . . .
  14. Seems there was a bit of a re-party after all.
  15. My V11 Sport crossover was replaced under warranty for a baffle that came loose inside. Not sure what could be accomplished with a couple well placed sheet metal screws . . . The stock cans from the 1100 Sport should be "really close", but the headers and crossover less likely because of the different gearboxes.
  16. Is it this one, Pete?
  17. Seven months to South'n Spine raid XXI . . . no pressure. Hey, but pressure is what "pressure angles" do best!
  18. Yes, please, on the "Inspection" write up!! Pinned topic at the top of "Newer Models" . . .
  19. Motorcycle content . . . because they are part of our spirit . . .
  20. The importance of the main ground from the battery to the back of the gearbox cannot be overemphasized . . . As well as the additional ground from the regulator case to the engine timing chest:
  21. It will be VERY telling what changes when the green wire is moved from the positive to the negative battery terminal.
  22. A ruse on how hard it has been to grease the front U-joint on the V11 SpineFrame driveshaft.
  23. The alternator rotor of the V11 is crank driven inside its "stator", no belt.
