Nah, I think the speed is read from the sensors. The speedo go off if the ABS is disconnected at the ABS ECU, but remains active if you just remove the ABS sensor from seeing the front wheel rotation.20valves said:I thought the Super Ten calculated speed by reading transmission gear speed, not front wheel speed. :question:
Yes the raising links are still in place.JaimeV said:Congratulations!! nice work. ::012::
Hope we can read soon Wasp ridding report!!
Hey Greg, do you still have the dog bones in the rear suspension? I suppose the new wheel changes de bike more or less to its standard geometry before you installed the links…
Very nice. Sadly, I can't get away at the moment. Looks like you will have a good weather window from Wed to Sun, so I hope you can get someone to come over.woodys wheel works said:2-3 days i imagine,,

Get yourself a set of SW-Motech adjustable pegs (I run without the removable rubber pads), then put the seat in the low position...JonnyCinco said:Greg - I am 6'0" and have the seat at the high setting to help with knee ergos when riding....however, I am barely flat footed at stops. What are your dimensions and how are you even coming close to touching the ground at stops? I know they grow'em big down under, but are we talking sasquach-style?
I think the wheels look awesome! I'm sure there going to work great in the dirt,Etc... But agree, im your height and im tip toe on my bike with the seat in the high position... If I where to do these wheels, raising links, Etc.. this is how I would look getting on the bike....JonnyCinco said:why do all the nifty custom guys have to be on the west coast. Here I sit with a wakling boot on my leg and the tenere in the garage, but all alone on the east coast. excited to see how much i need to take out of my 401k!

Just weight... That's it - That's everything.JonnyCinco said:Maybe you mentioned this somewhere. But what is the goal of dropping a disc (besides weight)?
100% agree and understand the unsprung weight. However, with a bike that is as dual purpose as yours, are the advantages of less weight shadowing that of a decrease in stopping power on tarmac?Wasp said:Just weight... That's it - That's everything.
Specially un-sprung weight in this situation has such a huge potential impact on a number of factors. Light wheels are easier to get turning, and to stop turning.. Suspension compliance with a heavy vs light wheel is another HUGE factor.
The biggest challenge for suspension off road is being able to move quickly to follow the terrain over which the wheels travel. A small heavy wheel acts a hell of a lot slower (and a lot less compliant) than a larger very much lighter wheel.
My bike does a lot of off road work so this is important to me. It may not be so important for a bike that very rarely see's the dirt.
Every little bit counts, but an extra 2.5kg is quite a significant little bit.
