After a couple hours stripping it and a quick squirt I think I did ok.







Dropped the oil, it's clean, throttle bodies are free, one fuel rail looks a bit suss, probably be fine but its got to go.

Only thing that's a bit of a bummer is the coil's connector plugs are beyond it.

About 1/2 the sensors are toast, there's more good electrical stuff than I thought there would be.

Went to pick up the alloy for the underdrive end plates and bearing plates but old mates saw was on the blink, tomorrow apparently.

Cheers

Jon, I think I have a motor wiring harness, it may not be pretty, and any stock sensors you need.  start making a list, I'll find my old lakester harness.

If it's Gen2 stuff I would be interested in any of the standard sensors  and plugs you wanted to part with.
What I don't need to get running I will want as a spare anyway, including the ECU if your running something else.

Trying to track down a source for the pins for the original plugs but a full set of the shells would be great.

Thanks

Jon, it is all Gen 1 Busa, don't know if there are any differences, maybe one of the smart guys will chime in on interchangeability.  I know the ECU is different, this is all pre 03 so not the popular to hack stuff.

Thanks Stainless.
I'm not one of the smart guys but they are different, thanks for the offer though.
One of the smart guys did recommend I hang out for the Gen2 (2008+) bikes.

Getting a Woolich Racing Logbox to tune the standard ECU.

Thanks

many of the sensors and harness are not interchangable
better to get the correct model parts

Eastern Beaver is one of the best sources for oem type connectors , but still will fall short on a lot you will need
i have a stock of the commonly used ones for turbo conversion with editor and boost control on a gen 2
and the various 2 3 4 and 6 pin connectors (nice waterproof connectors for wiring that sees a lot of salt )

Thanks Greg
I have tracked down ECM plugs and the plugs for the Logbox interface and have box of Weatherpack terminals for the rest of the bike.
I've used Weatherpack stuff on Earthmoving and Ag equipment a bit, if they stand up to that 24/7 and pressure-washer crazy Operators they should have half a chance with the salt.
Will be hunting for the rest of the plugs for the engine sensors, coil, injectors and stuff.

Hey Jon. Jon
Try JayDee Auto cables in Bayswater    http://jaydeeautocables.com.au/

They seem to have all sorts of motorcycle plugs and terminals and are who I use when I get stuck

Motor looks fine Jon.  It's always a bit of a risk buying the crispy offerings, but it looks like you did alright in this case.

Here is a link to a Ignitech.  They make fully programmable ecu's with provision for nitro controllers, injection, launch control, fuel air etc...
If you go into products then down to motorcycle connectors, you may find what you need.  There is a bit of a language barrier, but they are good guys to deal with, and the prices are good.  
Loving the under-drive, and the build in general.   :cheers:

Edit:  Didn't see Grumm's post... thanks for the tip G.

Thanks guys, I'll have a hunt at those places.

The Ignitech units aren't bad RGN, I have one on my little NC30, Dave is running one on his build and on his Monster.

Picked up my underdrive conversion kit:

Since you are wiring this liner up from scratch, it might be a good idea to house as many of the connectors and miscellaneous small stuff in some salt-proof boxes.  This is a little one I am making for the data collection system on the Triumph.  The system and bike is not very smart so I only need a little box.

Thanks Bo

What are you logging?

I'm not sure how my logging is going to end up. I'm getting a Woolich Racing Logbox that will log all the engine data an I have a Tech Edge Wide Band O2 sensor that can log 5 channels of data.
I have linear potentiometers for suspension travel and a couple other sensors.
I'm not sure if I'm better off with two data logs, one for the motor and one for the rest of the bike or trying to get it all into 1.

I hope to end up with the ECU and most  other electronics that don't need to be in a specific spot in the riders compartment.

The addition of CO2 for the Joeybox shift is changing a few actuators that were going to be electric..

Joeybox?

Have you got a small macropod on the end of your motor



Although it looks more like a small yellow dog than a Macropus rufogriseus.

Speaking of yellow, if you need some paint for your liner, I hear Goggles has some spare

Sorry, truck driving thing from when two boxes were common, main and joey, there was still a fair few in the oil patch when I first went out there.

I don't think he has any yellow paint left, I went to the local paint supply for some yellow paint and they said all their stock had gone to Sunshine.
