I denoided my bike tonight and when removing the airbox, I noticed a Bosch sensor at the back of the airbox. It has a green o-ring on it and looks like it should have a hose attached to it, but it didn't. I didn't see any open hoses nearby that looked like they were supposed to be connected to it either. What is this sensor, and is there supposed to be something connected to it?

Also, how do I make these into images instead of links?

Your service manual has the answer. So does the parts manual (Hint: its on page 35 of parts book: ))


Baro sensor

yes the BPCVSM if tampered with could casue the flux capacitor to over heat and blinker fluid to spontaneous combust, thus sending you into the fourth dimension...its in the find print on page 35.314....

I never even thought to abbreviate it... Genius!

B..P..C..V..S..M, B.P.C.V.S.M, BPCVSM! Yeah, that's pretty awesome.... made my night actually.

Well it assists the piston return spring (I think that's what broke your motor Jake) in keeping proper field voltage around the FC so Pluto doesn't crash into the Sun

Indeed captain, i concur with your thesis and believe that if the BPCVSM had been in proper working order then i my engine wouldnt have imploded under the shier strains of the universal forces of trying to keep pluto from crashing into the sun....just imagine the possibilities if there were TWO BPCVSM, good gogaly mogaly we could breakthe space time continuum in a matter of nanonicluar seconds!!!

Instead of a world beater buell, we could a UNIVERSE beater buell!!!

MUAHAHAHAHAA

I actually rewired the power flux from the BPCVSM away from kinetic engine input (as the 1125 doesn't really need that power) and focused it into a quantum photon emitting lens on the front of my bike in case I need to blast through some zombies.

If you changed the polarity to reverse the phasing of your photon lens, if my calculations are correct, you could do a lot more than blast zombies... Think if you put that bitch on the back of your bike pointing away from you.

That's how I do mach 17 on my bike.

you guys are all wrong.. using an intricate and sophisticated system of tassel and chrome sniffing algorithms, the HD Sensor senses any nearby Harley Davidsons and upon location the HD, the 1125 flings poo in their general direction

That sensor is a barometric air pressure sensor and is supposed to be just as you see it. Make sure the nipple points downward. If its up, it could collect water and that isn't good.

I replaced my flux capacitor with an oscillation overthruster and I've seen significant performance gains. You should try it!

Also helps if you tell the ECM to run the tire pressure at 34psi.

I rewarded my ECM with some digital cake yesterday after it passed the Turing test. I am so proud of it.

ECM's don't eat with spoons! You have to feed them through your laptop.

Yes, via USB with a virtual spoon. But the Chuck Norris of motorcycles doesn't eat cake.

Thanks for the answer Aseecobra! I was wondering myself but don't have fancy shop manuals or parts books!
