Shit.  I went to babelfish.com but there's no option for "geek --> English" translation.

That's OK, his second 'sentence' was really the important one.  ;D

Just as I start to think about how to re-do my wiring harness... this comes along.

My poor, poor wallet.


If I buy one, John, will you help me rewire my bike?   ;D  Spidey only know electricity hurt when put fork in socket.

It's a good thing I'm too chicken shit to change my wiring enough to install that thing...else it would be ordered.  :P

Sure. But only if you demonstrate the fork trick and let me post the results on YouTube. Also you have to be naked and covered with dielectric grease [puke]

Seriously? Hell ya. You've already got aftermarket switch gear. The rest is more a matter of subtracting wires rather than adding.

Plus it'll let me make the beast with two backs up your bike first give me valuable experience I can use on other projects.   ;D

PM me. Maybe we can do a group order and finally get the right temp sensor for your bike. In exchange you can handle the annoying process of ordering from motogadget.  [thumbsup]

he usually is anyway. [roll]

That thing is actually pretty small (don't take that out of context, you sick f*cks).  length/width/depth: 101 x 61 x 28 mm.    4 in x 2.5in x 1in  That would take up less space than the relays I currently have under my seat (seen below).

Oh, now I get it.  This is all just an elaborate plan to get me naked.  Again.  Just typical.   [roll]

Why does it matter if it runs?  You only use it to rest your beers/scotch on.   [cheeky]

Damn, I hate Stewart.   [bow_down]  I wish all my wiring were under the seat like that.   Better yet, I wish I had even a fraction of the skillz to do that.   :-\

I've been wanting a motoscope classic for the longest time.

Right about until the moment when I saw this:

God I want it so much  [bang] [bang] [bang]

*edit*

Apparent there aren't direct links. Click on the black screened gauges called the chronoclassic.

The one with the black LCD is def the best looking. Only $650  ;)

I feel your pain.  Seriously.  I spent four-yever trying to figure out which of those two I wanted.  I finally decided the black didn't work as well with the overall look of my bike.  But I coulda gone either way. 



Drunken Monkey bought a black one.

So, do you re-wire pin-to-pin, or solder on extensions?


Sorry, I think that was a stupid question.  You go pin-to-pin.

 Extensions are for hair   [laugh]

I had to buy the proper crimps to do my wiring harness.  Crimping is better IMHO....no chance of a failed solder joint do to vibration or movement.   And quicker too  [thumbsup]  Some raychem and extra pins and I was good to go.
