It works from fully closed throttle until 1/3 approx but I guess it doesnt make any difference on the road as you will only see something when on standstill and on idle but its definitely worth checking the switch in case it got stuck in close position as it will deactivate completely the AR operati...

I think disconnected switch means clutch in disengaged position so it wont make any actual riding difference on any bike if fitted. Just to complete the bike as honda wanted to be! It only deactivates the ar when in standstill and clitch engaged

I did the tests with the switch attached to the lever properly. I just added more freeplay on the cable to allow pressing/unpressing the switch without affecting the actual clutch. You can also listen the difference on partial throttle

i did some tests yesterday and it definitely deactivates the ar thing. Its easy to test to. Just take off the PV cover and cruise with third gear at 1/3 throttle position. Whenever you press the clutch (just a bit to press the button) the PV moves to the normal position depending on the RPM as norma...

All my bikes have the clutch switch disconnected and wires tywrapped back, no need for them to be connected.

I thought the clutch switch is used by the PGM to activate or deactivate the AR operation?

i have a spare oil pump from an AR if you want. The only problem is you must remove and replace the bleeding bolt as the head broke from some idiot who over did it with torque. Send me a pm if you are interested
thanks

the best I got from my AR is 6.5l/100km. With constant speed of 100km/h on motorway. I was expecting much better!

Ive sent you a pm

I used compressed air on my rgv as well.
I think the reason they use nitrogen is because normal air'a density fluctuates when under heavy load (ie. tracks) therefore changes the characteristics of the shock.

if the valve is moving then you cant fault the ECU repair as he only replaces the bridge on the ECU responsible for servo movement. I know that the ARs dont have a steady idle because there is a valve controlled from the ECU that moves the idle up and down. Remove the cover from your carb and you wi...

yeah I saw that LT is rebuilding the cranks but you dont know what conrods they are using and they dont tell as well. I always distribute information regarding two strokes and I am happy to share this as well! I also found how to change the power valve timings on yamahas (YPVS) and posted it on the ...

yeah its the big valve type with AR on the cover. I took some more measurements today, center to center measured at 132.6mm so I guess this makes it 132.5mm small end width 17mm small end diameter 22mm big end width 17mm (plus 1mm each washer) I cannot measure the diameter of the big end is its curr...

i meant crown...

conrod is 13cm center to center
the cylinder is 10.9cm high
piston is 7.45 high, 66mm width with domed crone. Small end center to piston end is 3.4cm

What do you mean by mk3? Everything says AR on them! It has the solenoids, the strange carb, the multiple pickups etc

I have taken apart the engine today and its definitely an AR model. Here is the bike when I got it http://imageshack.us/a/img703/918/8wk8.jpg The piston (wiseco) http://imageshack.us/a/img841/2060/niq6.jpg The cylinder http://imageshack.us/a/img822/7550/23pq.jpg The reed block.
