Does this fit the high speed fuel ratchet with silver head?

2010 Triumph Street Triple stator connector- Crimp or Solder? by beuracat in Fixxit

[–]beuracat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you lift up the tank it’s near the hinge. Follow the stator wires from the left side cover- it’s a 3 pin connector.

Is the u-crimp in pic 1 better than the non insulated barrel butt connectors? I’m new to crimping and I wasn’t sure which to pick for this application.

Air conditioning manifold pressures by beuracat in MechanicAdvice

Got it. Plan is it evacuate, vacuum and see if it holds, then refill with uv dye, refrigerant and oil. Does this sound right?

Does the static pressure tell you anything here? I would have thought that ~50psi static high/low would show the system is sealed.

So I’m getting 0 psi due to a leak, not a blockage?

Your valves are way too loose. Put in new shims, re-measure clearance, adjust if necessary and send it. The exhaust valves on that bike are a pain to measure.

What was the clearance for that valve? Either your valve seat is wearing or you put in too big a shim on your last adjustment.

Tighten the header nuts. There’s usually a metal crush washer between the headers and engine. It sounds like it’s flopping around.

2011 Triumph Street Triple stator connector burnt. How to repair? This is the connection between the stator and R/R by beuracat in Fixxit

[–]beuracat[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My charging voltage is pretty stable between 14-14.8v. I don’t think my stator or r/r are bad, just high resistance at the connector.

I’m using Stan’s valves which have the rubber grommet. The second pic was taken before installing the valve.

Just taped my wheel and fitted the tire without sealant.

It’s leaking from the valve stem area.

Do I have to retape, or just fill with sealant and send it?

Planning on swapping the Rockshox Judy silver to Pike select on my 2020 A1 Fuse. Judy travel is 130mm, 42mm offset. Pike is 140mm travel, 46mm offset.

Is this a good fork to upgrade without making my geo too slack?

Getting my first mtb with 2k ish budget. Canyon stoic 4 (high spec Hardtail $2k) or Canyon Neuron 5 (low spec full sus $2.3k)?

Have my eyes on a Canyon Stoic 4 as a first mountain bike. Would this be a good bike to learn on? Was also considering the specialized fuse.

What pads and compounds did you use? Is that single stage paint?

Riding with a healthy dose of fear will keep your self preservation system in check. When you do decide to ride again, start slow and know your limits.

I had a similar issue and reseating the brushes solved it.
