What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today?

Hi to all!

 

The carburetors are dismounted (since 02/12/2015) due to new leak (small) gas. My family traveled and decided to observe the mechanism of external movements of carbs (on 02/17/2015). I always thought the heavy accelerator and now with a tendinitis that bothers me on long trips. Cables and wrist still original and in perfect condition, are new. The idea was to reduce the spring pressure. Only in TDM850 to remove the spring, the carbs should be separated and I found complex for the moment. The easiest, went to work in the spring where he was. With the tip of the screwdriver, I took one of the mounting point of the spring ends. The idea was to get an attachment point below the original. It took hours trying to make an attachment point from a stainless steel wire. After much trial, cuts and folds could manufacture 2. The first, the spring pressure was very close to the original. The second had a little farther pin original fastening point. It was very soft, noting that the carburetors were on a table. I installed the carbs in motocileta only for testing and bingooooooooo. The drive was great. Soft and the return was very good, without compromising security. But the motorcycle was not on, the engine oil was drained and the carbs are not set to work.

  After assembly and test (accelerator) the bike on the highway, I will be posting pictures.

I do not know if it would be correct to post here, or open a topic.

  Still observed:

1) the fluid reservoir hose to the radiator presents dryness.

2) screws of the clips of carbs (admission) should be replaced

3) castings rubbers (right and left) receiving the pins of lateriais fairings are resected.

4) best place to install oil pan (current lubricant) and hose passage leading the oil to the chain.

I have a project (Scottoiler - own manufacture)

 

Cheers!
