2012 norgeI have the flickering neutral light so wanted to go in and tighten connectionWhat is the minimum stuff to remove to get to it?Thanks
There ya go. I haven't had to get to one on a Norge, on most of them it's a prick of a job, or I've just been approaching it the wrong way! Not unknown.... Pete
Don't know about the Norge, but it's a pita on the B11. Sits at the rear end of the bike, behind the gearbox. We had to take off the gastank and partly lift the air filter to get to it. Maybe we overdid ;-)
For all of that work, I wouldn't care if my neutral light worked at all.
Also don't try to fit the air box with the TB clamps attached, they're easy to fit last and the snorkels will slide on as easy as you know what, with a smear of rubber grease, (sound familiar?), without the stupid clamps in the way, it's piss easy. Keep a goodly forward pressure on the 'box when nipping up the clamps and check that the snorkels have gone properly over the TB's and they are still fitted correctly onto the side of the air box. Finally, if you GENTLY ease the wiring loom out to the right a bit the air box will go in easier, but it's still a tight fit, but not impossible, (just).
Except on the side stand the flickering neutral kills the engineThanks for all repliesI may go after it today
So to remove tank is jut the rear bolt the 2 electrical connections and the fuel line?
Well I got the tank off and airbox outMight need therapy after thatNeutral wire was wiggly loose so gave it a little crimp and put it back on and zip tied it.I think will drop in an air filter why I'm there. Anything else I should do before closing the patients chest?facebook com upload photos
I have removed and replaced mine more times than I care to recall, and, despite such practice with it and generally following of the method you describe, I would not ever think to describe it as "piss easy." If I knew who designed it that way , I'd shoot him without even offering him a last smoke. I'd use the same wall for the fellow who did the fuel "quick release." Bill
Thanks huzo I will try the greaseOn work travel all next week so will be a while till good get back to itTime heals all mental wounds.I did get lucky and the fuel connector separated fairly easily!
You forgot the sadist that drilled the twin plug's inner spark plug hole. 340* to work with and he chose to drill it THERE?
