More projects = less happy you. Focus on making what you have killer awesome!

Sold!

Possibly ! Where in Illinois?

Wow, I totally forgot to add–clean and clear MN title in my name.

Hoping to move this stuff. I'd go down to $300 for the lot, if its to a good home. Feel free to make an offer!

Sure! Just checked–I totally made a mistake, i dont have the front for the 1982 XS400 DOHC! I do have the rear. Theres the 19" and 18" from what I believe is the SOHC XS400. Rear: Other:

Unfortunately, sadly, hopefully not regretfully, I'm selling my XS400. Its been an AMAZING learning experience, loads of fun, and I really hope to get another someday. For now, its taking up too much room in the old garage. Plus, I have a lot of other things on my plate right now, and time isn't...

I think I found your part in a bin I forgot I had! Is this it? (sorry for the crappy pic)

Unfortunately no :(

Also probably worth noting is that the engine has little to no oil in it. I have the side cover off and over the past few days of testing and cranking it has evacuated a fair amount of oil. Could that be it? I also can easily smell gas in the first 5-10 second of cranking it from sitting...

Sorry for the slow replies, I dont have notifications setup for this thread. I think I do now! Anyway, I'd definitely be interested in the scope, and maybe to meetup and discuss strategy. I'll PM you. In any case, its interesting stuff and fun to tinker with! Josh

Wow. Thats actually a very interesting idea. I love the voltage regulator idea. I have been using led's flashing as a timing light! it worked well. Agreed though. Theres so much potential! Currently, I'm using hall effect sensors cuz theyre cheap and easy. Ideally, I'd like to use a variable...

Funny you should mention those COP modules. A friend of mine just gave me one to experiment with. I definitely plan on converting most/all electric bits on the motorcycle to some modern alternative. Thats awesome you've worked with an Arduino + engine management stuff! I'm really excited about...

Wow, so embarrassing! I don't know why I didn't think of that. Just a majorrrr brain fart. Thanks! I will definitely give that a go and report back. Sweet to see you're around the cities! Where from?
