1985 LTD FI Carb.

[backyardtrouble]

I bought this set for a customer, but as the saying goes - he changed his mind.
So i am putting this up for grabs. I bought it off a 100% running bike, and i think they are in great shape, but they have been sitting for a year in a box, but still should be ok. This set was never cleanded by me..this is the way i got them. I know these are getting hard to aquire, so Make a decent offer, i'm just trying to recoope my money...plus the shipping will be extra.

It would be real cool if they could be adapted for an 1100!

hmmmm

Hmmm indeed but dont you need a brain box and high pressure fuel pump for it to work.

 

[joedrum]

something like that might be possible with c5 but its out of my budget to set something up like that

 

[Steve83]

Fuel injection would be wonderful to experiment with! How tempting... May I ask what you paid for the set?

 

[backyardtrouble]

sure..no problem...not trying to get rich...just my money back....i've got $180.00 in the set plus shipping. I think that was 20.00 dollars.

 

[joedrum]

hmmmmm quit it ...im getting to many ideas here ...im so addicted

 

[slabghost]

That would be so nice but the mega squirt systems are beyond my budget and ability.

I love fuel injection. Your bike can sit for months and fire right up. Carbs are definitely old school.

 

[pidjones]

Wow, it even has the TPS! Definitely a rare item. Identical to the '86 SEi units. Hardly ever give problems, though. Most of their problems are sensor (TPS, CPS, etc.) or fuel pump related. High pressure fuel pump from auto parts store works fine.

yes, the TPS sensor is a rare item. This would make a wonderful secondary unit for someone that has the 85 or 86. You never know what will happen.

Taunusrainer from Germany adapted these to the 1100. Not for the faint of heart. I'd love to be able to switch to FI, but I am afraid it's beyond my skill set. I'm good with a grinder and duct tape.

 

[Steve83]

Well, I bought it. Now all I need to do is collect the sensors (air & water temp, crank and cam position, MAP...), ECU, harness, fuel pump, air filter...then make it work on a narrower 1100. Or, get a 1200.

This ought to keep me out of trouble for quite a while... :shock: :rtfm: :laptop: :builder: :head bang: :read: :roll:

 

[backyardtrouble]

Yes...and thank you steve. I pulled it off my top storage rack yesterday, getting it ready to rebox for you and ship. I had forgotten how good looking this set was really... :swoon:. I was on ebay the other day, and they had lots of stuff too..wiring harness, ect. I hope you enjoy them and can't wait to see it, just wish i had more time or i would have kept them.. :head bang: but i'm glad someone can get some use out of them, no need in them just sitting around... :thanks: again.

 

[backyardtrouble]

....Merry X-mas.....Shipped them today.

 

[Steve83]

Woo-hoo! Thanks - I'll keep the forum posted on any progress, if and when it's made. Should be fun either way.

 

[dan filipi]

Steve's got a new Toooy.

Hmm hey, he lives near me he he!

 

[backyardtrouble]

maybe steve and you can get it ready..and come and join us at BBQ next september in fayetteville.
I might even have something new built by then...maybe my standard.....i'm thinking something special on this project.

Congrats on the new toy Steve, I dont know anything about adapting it but from looking at it it seems you could remove some metal from the flange on the manifolds, I`m not sure that would make it narrow enough to fit.
Good luck.
