I have the throttle body adapted to the manifold in what I presume is very nearly final form . The 95% completed adapter plate is the key to making this very nearly a bolt on conversion. Sharp observers will see that I drilled the two inside holes incorrectly the first time. I had my template placed...

Everything came together to give me a couple hours' time to work on the intake. As mentioned earlier , my pretty adapter plate was cut before I knew I would be using the stock Kawasaki boots to mount the throttle body. Because of the way the boots bolt on, there is some degree of overhang . I welded...

Well, it took about an hour to remove all but three small traces of the EFI project from Buzz. What's left is the CLT sensor, securely JB Welded to the cylinder head, the FIDLE LED and the O2 sensor bung, plugged with a sparkplug. The airbox was as much fun to put in as it was to remove. :) I began ...

I found several twin throttle bodies for Ninja 650's on eBay. I don't know if the 500 is the exact same manifold dimensions, but it would not shock me at all if they were. I'm using mine for a VW trike. The twin TB is spaced identically to popular Weber/Delorto carburetors and they will attach to a ...

After the holidays, the recovery from the holidays, a busy travelling February at work and a bit of actual winter here in Texas, I think I can finally get this show rolling again. I've decided that amongst the first things to do is to restore Buzz to stock form, salvaging all the EFI components that...

A friend emailed me asking for clarification in the "big step" update: Did you get the stepper motor working correctly? In the vid it went to full open then I wasn't sure if that was the secondary's @ 60% or the mains. I replied: Yes, working well. At least working as well as I can test wi...

Many months of sporadic research have not revealed a published flow rate for the injectors on my TB. I have am considering sending them to Witchunter Performance for cleaning (probably unnecessary) and more importantly, flow testing. Sadly, it will run about $50 to clean and flowtest two injectors (...

I have elected to keep Buzz for the time being, but rob the parts I need for the trike . Thus far, I have only removed the ECU itself, but I'm rapidly approaching a point where I will need the injector harness. The O2 sensor will be soon to follow. I intend to dedicate a work day to removing all the...

The snow came, but was indeed light and is mostly gone already. It's not even supposed to freeze overnight. It's still cold, just not the major death-to-all-fools-who-venture-outdoors that the news media might prefer. Maybe next time. I rushed home and, after delays from trying to find and gather st...

I'm sure I wasn't the only one with a crazy month. It's been go go go go go. I think the last of it is done. Well, except for the weather... Expecting a bit of snow tomorrow, though it's not expected to be much nor to stick around. Santa thought organizing my tools might help me be good for next yea...
