• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

I have spent the last week trying to get my Vapour reading rpms correctly!:banghead: The ppr values are easy once you get your rpms stabilised.:thumbsup: At first I hooked up Vapours power supply to that of old speedo which is fine, the mistake I made was running a common ground back through original speedo ground. I couldn't get rpms stabilised, so then I removed rpm sensor ground and ran it solo to frame. This seemed to work at first, it seemed to have stabilised rpms. When I started the bike the next day the rpms seemed to be all over the place again. :banghead: I started to think it was where I installed the rpm sensor, I connected to plug after coil instead of between coil & spark plug. I really didn't want to take tank and all back off so I was going to run rpm sensor to spark plug lead to see if it would work there. But first I decided to try removing the power ground, this has been successful in stabilising rpms once these were stable it was easy to set ppr. :banana: Here is how, if rpms are reading double what they should then set ppr to 2, if you are reading half what rpms should be set ppr to .5 this is where I have set mine. Just about to take for another ride to see if OK will report back if any problems. :cheers:. Grant
