If I would have known ahead of time, that there would be this many bikes in the garage, I definitely would have.... :smt003

Actually, 5 of my two strokes use the exact same battery size.
And 5 of my 4 strokes use the exact same battery size.....so I have two lithium batteries I just move to whatever bike I'm going to use.
This next season I got a couple battery eliminators I'm going to try out for my strokers.

I built one for my RGV race bike but went back to a battery after I fitted programmable ignition.

Worked fine but was a pain having to run the bike to alter the ignition program. I could have fitted a plug so I could fit a battery to do alterations but that would have kind of defeated the purpose.

Spring came early, (5 days in the 60's) but I spent my time shaking down the GS1000 resto project.
I now have about 100 miles on it and have made the move to 29 smoothbores, after spending $$$ and time rebuilding/jetting the stock 26's.
It pulls like a freight train now, and suspension feels nice and solid, yet smooth enough for long hauls.
When it warms up again in spring, I will be trying the battery eliminator on my VJ22 SP first. If it works without issues, then the other will go into my RZ.
I'll make sure to let you guys know if they work OK on the street or not.
Starting on the VJ23 next week, now that I finally have enough parts for the rebuild.....With Sugaya pipes... :smt003

Another project done and now has 300 Km's on the rebuilt motor......runs incredible up top
Have a programmable ignition/powervalve/solenoid box I will be putting on now that it's basically broke in
Will probably pull pipes and reseal a bit better, recheck compression when carbs are off for jet change, and hopefully dial some power into the 60's

RZV is moving slow....found rust on cylinder walls.....not sure what direction to take, or if cranks should come out too?
So I decided to finish up my RGV250SP VJ23, with a dyno run to make sure I have it set up the way it needs to be.
Now I can concentrate on the RZV better
