Wanted - Crankshaft Angle Sensor from 1200 Fuel Injection System

[Steve83]

This sensor sits under and slightly to the left of the crankshaft timing sprockets (as viewed from the front of the engine), and has a long cable that exits from behind the timing cover. It generates 8 pulses per crank revolution via the center plate between the sprockets.

I don't find any on Ebay, or at any parts suppliers that I know of. Anyone out there in Oldwing-Land have one that you would sell me? :beg: Shipped to 91001 :help:

:thanks: :thanks: :thanks: !!!!!

Are you going to be able to change your fuel mixture to match your CCs and your cam profile

 

[Steve83]

I'm planning on using the stock 1200 ECU, and also 1200 heads and cams. I have a complete wiring harness from an '85 1200 LTD. I've thought about the 100cc difference - hopefully it won't make a great difference in fuel metering. This is just a big experiment, and my best bet might be getting a 1200 bottom end as well. I really hope to make it work on my freshly rebuilt 1100. I've been able to get everything quite inexpensively - so far. We shall see...

Thanks for the links! The sensors are still available, for around $80, and an improvement.

Another challenge I now face is installing this sensor to an 1100 case, which has no mounting tabs.

hmmmm

i think this part describes the fix best

I read a post by "Oregonwinger" dated 2008 where he suggested using a sensor from a GL1500 part #30300-MN5-003 so I ordered one and had it the next day. The two mounting studs inside the timing belt casing needed to be cut back 8 mm to accomodate the new sensor. The casing has two sets of mounting studs one above the trigger pulley and one below,the original sensor used the lower two mounting studs, I cut the upper two mounting studs the 8 mm since they were exactly in the correct place for the sensor (the 1200 carbed models have two pulse sensors whereas the EFI has one pulse sensor leaving the second two mounts unused. I thought if anything went wrong I'd still have the original lower mounts intact. The reason for cutting the mounting studs is so the pickup point of the sensor will line up with the trigger points on the pulley since the old and new sensors mount a bit differently. I set the air gap at 0.7 mm hit the key for a second to see if it fired up..it did and I shut it off of coarse since no rad or coolant.Wired it permanent put it back together took a test run and its fixed. Thanks to my son his knowlege of Motorcycles and for this website and some very important info Oregonwinger shared back in 2008. This upgrade is a good one and the new sensor is more durable,not so heat sensitive.

I found a used 1500 sensor on Ebay - hopefully it'll work...

Good luck dude

Are you done with this ad Steve?.

 

[Steve83]

Yeah, Dan, I suppose so. I'll keep lookin' for an original, but in the meantime, I'll play with the 1500 units.

Thanks to all for your help - it's greatly appreciated!
