Please let us know how it is going .

You be absolutely , positively SURE this throttle plate is closed to verify a closed throttle. Fast idle linkage and throttle stop are OFF Most Cat stuff here uses Deutch terminals , is this an old jumper harness . BTW , using t-pins in the pcm harness is the thing until you can get a Casper kit . Both my bikes show around 550mV KOEO w/no fast idle cam applied. This is at idle throttle plate setting.

Yeah , 15-18 v could make things exciting !

IDK why I didn't think of this til now.... Remove the seat and use t-pins (or you can use sewing needles) to go down into the pcm harness (leave the harness connected to the pcm) at pin 1 and at pin 11 with them connected to the DVOM . W KOEO you can get your voltage reading there . This is what I did before I got my Casper harness.

I would use a ring terminal and crimp it to the wire as good as possible and use screws to connect it to the CB instead of the push on terminals

I am beginning to think these wiring harnesses are like ignition keys . They are exclusive to each bike .

Looking at three different diagrams . 99 V11 Sport , my 02/03ish V11 Sport and a 04V11 Sport Catalytic . They are all different . Do you have your owner's manual w/a wiring diagram attached to the last page ? TJH , you have your old TPS , hook a DVOM up to the terminals on resistance scale Go from a to b and measure the value . Go from a to c and measure the value. The combination that gives you the least value is what you are you are looking for. Use pliers , screwdriver or something to turn the inside of the TPS to move it. Watch for resistance change. You are practicing for checking the mV reading on your bike . IDK how proficient you are w/a meter so I hope this goes well get a jumper harness and hook it up to your TPS and make the adjustments . You can stick T-pins in the wiring connectors and try to get an adjustment.

According to one diagram A (violet) is v source and C (violet/black is signal return . Maybe red frames . Then another diagram shows A (violet) as v source and B (yellow) is signal return . Black frames ? And what is bad , I used this harness to adjust TPS on my red frame and black frame bikes. You practice on the TPS that is not on the bike and see what you get . BTW , is your bike a red or black frame ? The outer terminals on the connector are the ones I am using to test TPS v. A is violet , B is yellow and C is violet/black stripe. Good luck .

I went o/s and found my leads , it is A to C you hook up to in order check the v on the TPS . BTW , go ahead and get the jumper harness. You want to get perfect readings on this adjustment.

I have one and I soldered a pair of Fluke meter leads on to the correct terminals so you can attach the jumper harness and plug right into the DVOM and get a good reading .

Plug your old TPS into the wiring harness and see what readings you get. Take a tool and rotate the inside of the TPS to dee if you get n increase in v when doing this . The TPS connector has 3 pins A B and C. C is signal return. A and B are voltage and gnd. Connecting a DVOM to C and either A or B will give you an increase or decrease in v when the throttle is applied. Make sure you are installing the TPS correctly when you put it into the top of the throttle body or it will NOT work correctly. I have a harness out in the shop and will have to see which way is correct.

They change the price on the sticker

The most perfect line of all time

That looks like the best thing and a good price too. I bought a Phoenix bleed system about 20 yrs. ago , used it four Xs . I would install those bleed screws and be happy with it. Also , you need to purchase bleed screw caps to keep out the bad stuff .

That is the easiest and most effective method , just keep the reservoir full .

UHHHH , the master cylinder is in the relaxed position . As in no one is pulling/pushing on any lever or pedal . Don't forget DOT 4 fluid only !

A good machinist can make (including threads) almost anything

I was making conversation to all that read this thread.

The facts . The only pivot and jam nut I have is a (I measured) 20mm X 1.0 thread pitch . The outer hex is a 30mm head on the jam nut. Searching Fastenal website gives only 20x2.5 thread pitch only. You can Google and find plenty of offerings there . Not all taps/dies are created equal . Maybe someone will chime in on their favorite brand(s) of taps. The miracle of all miracles . I keep LOTS of things .a.k.a. JUNK in many plastic drawers . @ 3:45 a.m. I walked out into the shop , opened the first drawer and "presto" found the jam nut/pivot bolt . Remind Deanna to purchase Lottery ticket today !

Did someone drop their bike ?

These guys run the clutch covers like this so they will REALLY make a lot of noise !

IDK if I can find a jam nut loose out in the shop but I will look and see if I can find and check the thread pitch . I am sure it is extra fine !

I was just popping off. IDK if that jam nut is threaded all the way or not and I am too lazy to go o/s and look . Is this going on a red frame or black frame ? It matters.

Sure , if you have a tap w/that thread pitch . Also the threads come to an abrupt stop. Just remove this jam nut and give it a look or take it to Fastenal and ask for help .

The only thing I ever caught w/those things were a buzz !
