  1. 0.15/0.20 would be best? (In spite of "the manual")?
  2. Posts moved for clarity and technical discussion . . .
  3. @Revilo has recovered his stolen V11, yet worse for the wear. Any and all help most appreciated! (Posts moved for focus.)
  4. With an over-voltage failure like that, watch your relays for signs of damage and malfunction . . .
  5. I've been away for the weekend for a V11 meet-up. Both @Revilo's posts and the @audiomick's Ford fuel line connectors should be their own topics, IMHO, rather than in this menagerie thread. I am quite busy catching up, but will try and focus those topics ASAP . . . [edit]:
  6. No doubt, you will arrive to a warm welcome. Ahead of the storms would be a bonus . . .
  7. I am reminded of @Admin Jaap's G&B Sport Monza V11 :
  8. While rather angular for my tastes, I bet it is luscious to see in person . . .
  9. Whew, footpeg behind the swingarm pivot. That's not for everybody . . .
  10. The replacement universals are in the spares cabinet. I was fortunate to source a complete used driveshaft.
  11. Kinda painful how that beautiful Fender bass is just back there for show . . .
  12. Every one of these steps will make your V11 better and better. Along with the throttle body synch, it is some kind of magic . . .
  13. Finish the "Decent Tune-up" and ride it! [The throttle body balance (at "some" rpm) is well indicated after the canister change.]
  14. It is not as simple as richer versus leaner, but more where the throttle opening(s) are indexed to the mapping.
  15. I hope someone has the answer to this. Finding the "fully and completely closed" throttle plate position has become a maddening event on my well-worn Sport. 30mV is as close as I can get, as well. Not perfect . . . Otherwise, it is a matter of: set it / ride it. Love it or change it.
  16. What is the fuel range of a modern small block V7?
  17. Sacrilege!
  18. First, well: Hey, welcome, @JimM ! Let's get clarified on your "V11" model. What is this V11 "e" of yours? As in "EV?" Next, I would suggest (regardless of the V11 variant/motor), valve clearances 0.006"/0.008" Intake/Exhaust (0.15/0.20 mm). Removing the injectors is probably not "next" . . .
  19. Yeah. I don't want to be that guy. Again. I try, but that was the strangest brake failure, ever. You guys were awesome hanging with me. Right down to @kalev11 following me out to to the ledge hollering, "Don't jump, docc !"
  20. Having just set my TPS about nine times , I'm hoping I have something to offer for the TechSessions (without actually becoming a TechSession ). What a great roster. Gonna be awesome to see some familiar faces and also get to meet some new folks.
  21. Oh, for absolute certain! I have a replacement rack with low miles (about 14,000) that I could "just swap out." I say that in quotes because the frame has to be crabbed to replace the throttle body rack (they don't just slide out to one side). Also, whether I should first rebuild the low mile throttle bodies or, at least, have the injectors cleaned. I keep telling myself, "This is what I do for fun." Thanks, again, @Speedfrog for posting that excellent Throttle Body Rebuild tutorial detailed by @Lucky Phil !
  22. I mean, I have a RedFrame Sport, so I bought mine new with half the bloody motorbike missing . . .
  23. And the side covers? And the airbox? And the rear fender . . .
  24. The TPS replacement checked out. The setting is still not perfect, but the awful (almost unrideable) hesitation/falter is gone. This is my 4th TPS. Number two was a PF4C for Harley-Davidson and #3/#4 are ca-cycleworks. First two lasted 50-60,000 miles each. This last ca-cycleworks about 19,000. That it "went bad" after it was adjusted makes me wonder if the method of tapping the TPS back and forth with a screwdriver handle to get the delicate setting could be suspect practice. That is the only action I can imagine that could have damaged the TPS during the tune-up. What with my decidedly worn throttle body shafts, finding the "fully and completely closed" throttle position remains enigmatic. I can change the reading about 30 mV pushing the throttle crank closed along with deflecting the shaft laterally. My understanding is that is about four "steps" on the mapping. A moving target . . .
  25. Several well informed posts by @2Stroke-Racing on this thread:
