    SEI 1200 Running Issues ….. still☹️

    Bit of an update... i did manage to get the SEI up and running as it should be... but have now passed it on to a new owner up north who will take it to the next level. I would definitely not have sold it if it had been the carb model, but the lack of spares for the fuel injection system made me...

    God yes it feels a lot lighter and certainly not as top heavy… you sit in the 1800s and not on them .. riding position of the 1800 is far superior as you would expect it to be. 👍

    Well I did all my final testing and the SEI rides great... Thankyou for your help with sorting it out, Im thinking now because of the complex nature of this beast Im going to move it it on and look for a GL1000 or 1100 to work on during the winter months.... Id forgotten just how heavy these are...

    Okay… i backed everything off so i could get the feeler gauges in as the throttle stop was holding the linkage. Checked TPS voltage and was .47v. Started bike and it was still running rough at low revs under load but ticking over fine…. I went back to original diagnosis which was PB sensor. I...

    SEI 1200 Running Issues ….. still☹️

    Hi.. I was slightly confused when reading the supplement and looking at your pic. It says to check the TPS to loosen the idle speed screw and then put a 2.9mm gauge between that and the arm. So should the throttle stop be as mine is and i insert the gauge to lift it away from the arm, or should...

    No its not a dumb question at all.. I have had the injectors out and they are functioning correctly and do have a good spray pattern. Im only going through fuel system at the moment as the previous owner said this was where the fault was, but once ive got my head around the fuel system then I...

    Thanks i have located the plug now and spliced in some wires, i rechecked the TPS and i got the same readings., 0.47v with throttle closed going smoothly up to 4.1V throttle wide open. I then rechecked with an old needle multi meter, and got the same readings, and the needle moves slow and...

    SEI 1200 Running Issues ….. still☹️

    OK .. I have tested my TPS voltage, and with the throttle at rest its 0.47V. As I open the throttle it rises to a max of 3.45V. Is this within spec does anyone know? If not and i have to swap out the TPS how do I get it off, as it looks to have no bolt or screw heads on it...?

    Hi Rednax.. Had a bit more time with the wing today, wing started as normal, and settled back to its 950rpm as usual , still sounded a bit rough when low revved. I wired up the suzuki PB sensors I had and gave them a go, the tickover was then 3000rpm and i couldnt get it lower so not sure what...

    SEI 1200 Running Issues ….. still☹️

    Hi… im still having issues trying to get this sei to run right… it starts on the button, when cold revs at around 1800rpm and once warm settles at around 950rpm. once warm it revs ok but seems to bog down up to below 3000rpm. I rode it up the street and it sound like its missing at low revs and...

    Fork oil seals.

    Hi.. Ive looked through the various posts about this on the forum, and have done 1200 forks before but it was a long time ago. Bike is a 1986 SEI, and while im in there I will be replacing the bushings as well. I know I loosened the fork caps while the forks were in the bike, but I cant remember...

    Hi Idle issues.

    HI.. Managed to get a bit of time working on the wing today... changed the vacuum lines and noticed the previous owner had the PB sensor wires in the wrong sockets. Started bike and it seems to run ok and the idle is down at 950rpm where it idles nicely with no pinking etc.. when i rev it it...

    Hi Idle issues.

    Thanks for that at least I know I can use them if needed or modify my suzuki ones.

    Hi Idle issues.

    Okey dokey i think im made an error with the PB sensors which are on the way from the states… i was unaware there were 2 types of electrical connections, and looking at the pic they look different to my bike… even though i was assured they would fit… is it a case of changing the plugs over or...
