Re: ABS red warning light coming on intermittently

The ABS unit is the same as fitted to a Ford Fiesta. Even if it was true that a car abs unit was identical to the BMW motorcycle abs unit (which I find very hard to believe) the only way I'll ever waste another second of my time on that bike is to pour petrol on it and throw a match on It. Life is ...

Re: ABS red warning light coming on intermittently

Re: CANbus electrical system

I have always thought that CANbus was a great idea but not so good in practise. If I remember correctly in its basic form CANbus is just four wires for the whole loom. Add data into an unshielded system that can be affected by any RFI event in a world chock full of RFI... what could possibly go wro...

Re: CANbus electrical system

The engine is now suspended in a frame on wheels for ease of handling.
It still needs a flexible exhaust gas removal option and a better mount for the fuel tank.

Re: Any interest in this...?

Unless you are coming to Australia for a holiday or are willing to pay for a 5kg parcel to be posted to you, I'd imagine mainly Australian users would be interested in this gear.

Re: Any interest in this...?

I honestly think it's whatever someone is willing to pay and I'd rather see it go to someone who will use it as I am converting the bike to a non-CAN bus ecosystem and the new build will not require a radio. Make an offer I guess. All offers will be considered. I have a video here: https://youtu.be/...

Wrecking - Australia: 2011 R1200RT Radio/BT Module & Exhaust flap (video inc.)

This is the first piece of equipment being sold to help fund my R1200RT conversion.
Is this the correct forum to put it? If not I'll throw it on eBay.
Note: speakers are included... I forgot to put them with the main part for the photo.
