Re: DC electrical System?

Just to be clear in my block of wood, you now have two yellow wires from your BGM, Yellow 1 is the normal standard wire, where does this connect too? Yel...

Quite clearly the TS1 is popular kit in the poll, and given the short amount of time the RB has been around it also sc...

Re: mugello,monza or ts1

I'd say the tried and trusted TS1......easy to get hold of, lots of jetting specs avaialble, can be tweaked for a touring tune or a race tune just as easily.........
