People said it's impossible,but
........a friend of mine starts with
a RC51-rebuilt first stage ( under my guidance).If you stay tuned I'll give
you a pictured guideline soon how to re-locate the Electronics smart WITHOUT
moving the std.side rads !For latest comments please move:wire
harness mod ,a bit assorted,but you'll find very helpful information
there.And some Pics which may help you reg. this Matter
This is how it begins,could be your Bike. You can see,the wiremod is done.Missing Items:
Fueltank std
Carbon Subframe
Seat
Fairing
Step 1 :mount the Fueltank
Step 2: mount the Carbon Subframe
Step3: put the Tailsection on.
next :.......the upper fairing
and that's it,the lower cowling + proud owner,ready to take off
So : does'nt really Matter if SP1/2,a basic-i'd say-stage 1 rebuilt,a calculation.If you mod or swap or mount:
Wire harness
Battery
Exhaust aftermarket (~ 7-8kg cpl.)
Fairing aftermarket road usable
Carbon-Subframe
Tailsection aftermarket
Carbon snorkel (optional)
Airbox
.......you've done not the very
extended programm,and i calculate you've reached the magical 200kg (full)
border of std.Sportbikes,or 26 kg less (57.35 lbs) at reasonable costs.Well,200kg
sounds good-it's 441 lbs,not a very magical value,400lbs full of fuel and
stuff and road usable,that would be nice,but the you'd need some more mods-my
Bike at present:386 lbs full and road usable.
I'll put this Bike on the scale to confirm the weight lose only by mods
mentioned above and let you know.
The general Comparison between RC51
std. wire harness vs. my shortened wire harness- full road
use
Here's a SAMPLE
how to locate
the Electronics,don't mind the purple screws-it's not my Bike.Ho,indeed,what i
forgot,there has been the Water Can before,yes?Well,i see this strange Item
only for a few seconds,when a new RC51 enters my Workshop , then
it's removed.Orotherway:i'm a Watercan collector since 1989,since my first
RC30. I like Watercanisters,they are so funny,so ugly,so superflouos,so that's
why i decided to collect them, you won't give me your's i guess?
Detailpic,front ignition coil + main Power relays
Enough Space:here you can deposit the
rear coil:
Blinker-relays you can mount at the
Snorkel,we've fixed it at left side behind top of Rad.
For the Bits i've thrown out and why and how,go :wire
harness mod
IMPORTANT: I havn't checked it,these comments work at European Models, probably for US Models also,but-I havn't ckecked it,please compare diagrams. |
Btw. and easydone,if don't go out riding below 15°C remove Thermostat and close bypass
