[Group] honda x11

[pistolwhip]

hey all.

 

 

once upon a time there was a blackbird. It was mighty. It had plastic.

it was good.

 

then "they " stripped it and expose its balls.

and "they" called it, X-11. it was mighty. It had 5 gears..

it was good.

then it blinked. 2 long. 5 short. And some were p1ssed. Most didn’t give flynig sh1t.

 

then the itchy of finger decided to fiddle with it. And the blinks……... a c t u a l l y w e n t a w a y.

 

heres how it was done:

 

took out the 12mm holdown bolts and propped the tank on an 8" cylindrical object (!)

 

couldn’t get the tank off dunno how to shut fuel line. And whats the other hose for? (hey phil, post the section on tank removal & airbox removal pls?)

 

easy access to knock sensor. From right side. Little black thing. The others are grey. (I identified it due to manual pic courtesy of phil)

 

took it out, sprayed it all with wd40. cleaned it, soaked it in petrol. Let it dry out.

 

when putting it back, discovered the cause of the problems (GASP!)…. The mount is loose! (GASP! X 2) Of all things. Honda Built it to last forever, then let a monkey with a lego set design the mountings. Of course lah screwed. same thing with the CBR blade coil problem. same monkey. this time with multimeter. and remember the earlier super 4? rectifier problem? SAME monkey, incompetent giorgio, cousin of curious george.

 

so, jammed the mounting with cable ties, (any thing 6 mm thk X 5mm wide X 30mm ++ will fit) and made it wedge againt the thermostatic valve. (The thingy that the

radiator hose connects to behind the engine)

 

this morning, NO MORE 25 blinks!

THINK. it comes and goes after spirited rides. whats common? VIBES. Vibration pops it out, then pops it in. its not the fuel. Its not the ecu. Its not the harness. It doesn’t happen to ang mohs on their euro models. Whats different from them? cable routing, weather, culture, food, better looking women? weather over there, less heat and humidity. plastic doesnt deform and get loose.

 

just now went for a quick blast, ALSO, no blinks!

 

will update you all as the week progresses.

 

cheers.

all you need is a 12mm spanner and couple of cable ties.

 

i didnt take a pic, but i'll post something soon.

 

cheers:thumb:

[pistolwhip]

open attachment and follow step by step.

 

befor you start, basic workshop safety:

wear gloves. Tie front brake lever and keep it locked. Use a rubber band or rope. jam rear brake down. use block of wood or your pen1s. wait till engine gets cold. do the laundry. always cover edges with cloth and grip the spanner good and dont mash your fingers.

 

1) remove seat

2) remove 12mm bolts at base of tank.

3) carry rear of tank up bout 10". Then prop it there with anything. A torchlight, block of wood, your pen1s.

4) from right side reach in and pull out knock sensor. Black in color, below the radiator valve. ask phil.

5) clean with wd40 or whatever. Then make sure its clean and dry.

6) get some cable ties or any hard piece of plastic and jam it the gap. So the flap cant move about and come loose.

7) now the slot in the flap will fit snuggly on the bung.

8) put it in back into original position in the main housing and give it a tug to check.

9)if you guys got any trouble. Just sms me or pray hard.

 

 

cheers.

Yo pistolwhip,

Quite interesting on ur write-up

Some quetion i need to pose before following the remedy u did.

1)Did u remove the knock sensor coz i have 1 hell of a time trying to remove it.Stuck like super glue man.

 

2)U spray WD40 at the pin or the connecting block on the ECU?

 

Sorry to pose much question but theres 1 point i agree with you.Its the vibrator.....oops...vibration.When u reach 3 RPM and above,theres the point where the bike tends to vibrate a lot.

[shithead8883]

Ok, meaning if wat pistolwhip said is true, doesnt that means that by me running on highway isnt the real cure? but doesnt it means that if i drag gear and travel at 140 there will be more vibration and thus the 25 winks will not go off? but mine did ...

 

Like all, i am mystified by this 25 winks but then i willing to try every remedy available by whatever quack doc haha ... (joking)

 

Just to recap, mah 1st time the FI went off was on a rainy and car pack CTE at night and i was travelling bery bery slowly at RPM abt 2-3 .. afterthe journey, it never blink till NSH ...

 

2nd case study was that i travell every day SLE BKE and KPE then after a while it went off ...

 

So as according to the above, both very different circumstances but then what can i say ... mine went off .. so i am hoping that those who have the similar problem can try out this remedy and if the 2nd bike also cleared, that means Fuel Octane problem and we have pint the tail on the EEEorrr

 

Pistolwhip, could it be you accidentally adjusted or touch some organ in the beast that you never could recall ??

[vicious]

Yup, i think that was pretty clear especially the above. got me there man.

 

R u sure u can got on time? Everytime u time is out leh Mr, by the time i think the tow truck has reach the garage liao.

 

Pistolwhip: Excellent testings.

[pistolwhip]

yup gene, of course that could happen. maybe it did. who knows.

sprayed wd40 on the connector at the engine side. and my knock sensor is loose.

 

wednesday and still blink free.

 

experimented just now on the way back from nsh.

took out sensor. started drove off. blink on.

put it back in, started and blink free. didnt need to take tank off. just slide hand in from right side. wear your gloves. its hot.

 

also noticed that the mount gets very loose when engine is hot.

 

whatever it is, the knock sensor is rubbish. wiring, mounting and function. anyone with electrical know how? thinkin of solidly mounting it. splice and dice?

 

anyone got a pic of tank, airbox and front wheel removal?

 

thinkin bout airbox mod and front fork respray soon.

 

cheers all.

its quick releas lah bro. at least that’s what its supposed to do lahh…

 

not too sure bout the bbird...

press down on the top of the male slot and pull it out. plastic under heat... It wont come out so easy first time. careful ur fingers. and jam the brakes when main stand. you may need to hustle.

 

definitely vibes. the monkey at honda hq decided to make the X EXTRA vibey, by removing whats the things name, counterbalancersomethingiforgot.

 

was riding it for a week with e blinks. after the blinks went away, forgot about the acceleration. skali see the car so near!

ya seriously, now that Pistolwhip mention, i vaguely remember that once Meng Tong told me that X11 doesnt have counterbalancer while BB has it so as to make the bike feel more rough and torque like a roadbike ...

Hmmm.....

So when you wanna conduct open session to teach us physically how to remove the winks .... hahaha .... (no overtones whatsoever pls)

hey all.

 

the honda chimp removed 1 out of dunno la how many counterwhaddahellitscaled. read it in some review a while back. reviews always put down the x's looks. wankers. they kinda funny looking themselves.

 

shove your handthru the right side, between frame, engine and block.

 

pull the black thing out (KS), modify it , then shove it back in. tank removal UNNECCESSARY.

 

remember, dont look too hard. dont overanalyze. its always either a $0.02 solution or a $2000.00 problem.

 

cheers all.

 

p.s. if really need me to show. we can meet up weekends. sms me.
