Achievements of today (yes - i AM a slow worker...)

1st: Finding a position for the temp-sensor & install it
2nd: Smoothen the edges and bonding joints of the airbox
3rd: Building brackets for attachment of airbox to frame (see in last picture at the bottom). There will be rubber mounts added.

Next & last step for Airbox: Paint blue parts black.

They look great!

Did you do them or send them out? I've been curious about touch up and such on these wheels.

No, i gave them to a friend of mine, who also has the fairing for painting (and of course charges me money for that, he needs it). He has a paintshop.

Check p.2 of my thread :) You can have the header mediablasted just make sure that a fine shot is used or it will roughen the surface as it`s rather soft.
Then rub down the header with a slightly oiled rag when you start riding the bike. Repeat this after a while 2 or 3 times. This will discolour the header a little when burning in but it´ll stay in good condition for a longer time.

I could help you with the wiring, seems like a fun task making a new one or marrying one of a 907ie & ST3 but you´re too far away.

Doesn`t look that bad. The wires are twisted, soldered and covered with heatshrinking tube. Definetely not the nicest job but ok.

Gert youre knowledgeable re FI system...what happens if you disconnect the air press hose and re-positioned elsewhere away from air box...I was contemplating this instead of the cigarette butt trick
Just a little knowledgeable, but I checked w my ECU guru today. :)

The blue sensor w 3 wires is just an Barometric sensor, as you say pressure s for air,
to compensate f sea level or when in mountains etc.
On newer Ducs it is outside airbox, in a still place.
Just loosening the hose to airbox, as I`ve done now, seems to work just fine.
Butt trick-dunno, maybe the airbox fluctuations disturbed the Bar sensor?

So the advice I got, JoKing, is as you were adviced, a MAP sensor should be placed near manifold.
BUT, the the Air Temp & Air Bar should be placed/altered as I`ve done now( see earlier post).

A ceramic coating will give these pipes a nice luster that is like unpolished aluminium I believe.

With the huge custom car & bike scene in the US there`re lots of specialised shops no matter for what.
I really envy you for that. It`s quite a bit different here. Shops that are specialized i.e. on coatings often only work for the industry. So one really has to investigate or know a friend who knows a friend ... usual story.
