hey mate loving the build, but im a bit bias as im building a very similar bike...
im was just trying to decice on carb or injection when i came across yout build, so it will be interesting to see how it looks with all the covers and seat on once all the injection is in.

Very Nice!!! Love the wire wheels, looks really good. Im going to be pushing hard to get this thing done after the holidays so stay tuned. Also start a build thread if you haven't already.

My last post I reported the bike was running and running pretty good.. For about 4~5 mins at a clip that is!! After that it would start missing like it was dropping a cylinder, etc. So I would tear it down, check everything, put it back together, and it would fire up and run perfect... for another 4~5 mins.. I have been doing this for the last six weeks, trouble shooting this, and that trying to figure it out. I even sent the MS back in to have the injector circuits checked.. nope, nada!

So after finally narrowing it down and back tracking a dozen times, I FINALLY found the issue and this was it..

That little slit in the ground wiring was grounding out to the shielding wire while running. What a bitch!!! Of course this was all covered up by the shielding and was invisible. Needless to say the lesson learned here is (as always) its the simple things that take forever to figure out.

I do have some new video of the bike running, but its to damn big to upload. I will get some new stuff taken and uploaded. Now back to tuning.. FINALLY!!!!!

I can almost beat that.....? some of the nice things I found....

Jack,

That's a huge help- thank you VERY much for the input here!

Devin

thanks mate.

its only still in the early days but there's the build thread:

hey mate do you have any pics of where you have "massaged" the tank so the forks clear it?

Didn't have to massage the tank for the forks. If you look back in the beginning of this thread I added a bump stop under the neck which gives me just a little less then 1/4" clearance on both sides. It limited the turning radius a bit, but in reality the only place that will show up will be in a parking lot or something.

ah yes i see that now, i don thave my mono shock set yet so its still a bit hard to tell weather i have enough steering angle or no yet... thanks mate.

BOOSTABLE,

How much longer was that GSXR swing arm than the KZ1000 swing arm?

Just curious.

Luis

Boostable, what did you do with your CLT sensor for the Microsquirt as for as installation? I just got my microsquirt for christmas and I am starting my efi setup on my kz1000j.

I drool badly over these microsquirt projects!
Some day
