I've read here and there about too much voltage being applied. If any of you have a wiring diagram, I'll bet I can come up with a voltage regulator circuit to tackle this problem. ( past electronics experience @ flamethrowers.com and conklinguitars.com, check them both out : ) thanks Coxster |

Be sure to change your transmission oil/fluid every 5K to keep amount of metal down in the transmission oil/fluid ... |

There's a couple threads explaining the process of modding the stock part Jim. I'll look into the KV for you a little later tonight when I've got sit down time and put up the link. If your current part is bad I have one I bought a few years ago and ended up not needing that I can sell you if your dealer is going to have to order the part. |

What is the difference between 74402-95B and 74431-01? That is what they call for on my '01, which I need to replace? |

Here's the KV link: http://badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/3842/10 307.html I'm wondering if anyone ever tried a 7805 Voltage regulator ( Mouser, Digikey, and once upon a time - Radio Shack ) Left pin-Volts In, middle pin-gnd, Right pin-5V out. http://datasheetreference.com/7805-regulator-datas heet.html Better than a resistor, but I'd probably put on on the supply side just to knock out some noise . . . |

Yes, we used them, they work great. In theory you should also have a couple caps on them, but I doubt it's necessary for this application. You can also just cannibilize an old cell phone charger, and cut that up and use it. |

If you have an aftermarket coil, it will cause the speed sensor to go out. I had this problem about a year ago. I went through four speed sensors before I figured out what was causing it. The Daytona coil was causing to much EMI on the speed sensor wire. I separated the speed sensor wire from the wiring harness and move it to the other side of the frame and wrapped it in shielding. I haven't had a problem since. The cell phone charger works and so does wiring it into pin one of the ECM. |
