Title: Sealing a Computer.
Post by: stay`tee on October 06, 2010, 06:28:29 AM

I had an issue with the revs on my ZX12 at the DLRA speedweek this year,, solving the problem involved me  accessing the rev extender modification that was done a copple of years ago in the bikes oem computer,,,, had to carefully "dig" the black (silicon?) goop out to get at the crystal,,, all is fixed now, my question is, what is the "recomended goop" to reseal the computer with???,,,,, some of the selants on the market appear to have a high acid content (off various kinds), and i am worried that thay may affect the board in some way,,

Thankyou in advance,,, Ronnie S...
