bpate4home Posted September 4 Share #26 Posted September 4 I think it's time for sheepskin on that seat. You can get it dyed any color, maybe purple. LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasta Burner Posted September 7 Share #27 Posted September 7 @HeatherFeather for the air suspension computer I ended up re-soldering all joints internal and it works great now. Also mine was obviously attempted to be fixed by a previous owner without luck and they ended up cutting the air lines and installing schrader valves. Once I spliced all that back together the computer was timing out. Took the compressor apart, cleaned and lightly oiled with pneumatic oil, same with the selenoid bank and fixed the timeout issue. looks like R6 calipers up front. I didn’t see it mentioned in the thread so just an FYI the bike has a linked braking system. (Unless of course the gen 1 didn’t do that, someone correct me if I’m wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmy40 Posted September 7 Share #28 Posted September 7 Yes, the Gen1 MK1 had linked bakes. Rear and right front(IIRC) on the pedal and the left front on the grip. @skydoc_17 sells a delinking kit. If you already have R6 calipers on the front you are ahead of the game. Those, Earl's delinking kit and a higher flow front MC will make a world of difference in the stopping power. I don't remember if you want a Gen1 MK2 front MC or a Gen2 front MC. Earl will chime in on this, hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasta Burner Posted September 9 Share #30 Posted September 9 @HeatherFeather also forgot to mention drying the desiccant. It’s in a metal tube mounted somewhere around before the compressor intake. Microwave did the trick. Don’t remember exactly how to open the tube but it does open, or exactly how long to microwave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
