R1 Rebuild
Chronology
Nov19/2009:
The basics of a Drive by Wire Unit.
Nov17/2009:
Rear hidden Rearbrake and Racing Alternator close to be done.
Monocoque in the making.
Nov09/2009:
The OEM R1 Gear Sensor internal Configuration was not suitable for the Motec ECU, so I reworked it from a 7 Wire Output down to a 2 Wire Output ( + and Signal ).
It looks a bit experimentally, but works flawless.
Test
prepared with cable prepared to mould with resin
Nov05/2009:
Experimenting with a couple of tables regarding the DBW Setup: the Video on
Nov02/2009
CTS 7 and CTS 7 Plus complete Quickshift Kit for Yamaha YZF R1 - including Plug and Play Wire Harness and new Shift rod - soon available !
Oct31/2009
We started with first Section of the Monocoque.
Front Suspension Sensor mounted
Oct30/2009
New Section inside my Motorcycle electronics Web: Drive by wire and the Opportunities with a Motec ECU
Oct29/2009
RN22: Motec M800 - SLM - SDL raw wire Harness done
Oct26/2009
As the Motec M800 Adapter-Harness for the R1 is already done and working - I started to add Connectors to the 2nd ( M800) strand.
The functions of this 2nd M800 strand:
2 speed sensors front Wheel (Traction Control)
2 speed sensors rear Wheel (Traction Control)
Quickshift
TC Enable
TC Aggressiveness Rider Input +/- Pot
Suspension front
Lambda-Control
3 Inputs to adjust Throttle Pos Driver to Throttle target
.... Means now all M800 Inputs are occupied, and only 2 Outputs are left over
Probably today I will wire up the Motec SDL.
Oct21/2009
Since a couple of Days the R1 is running on Motec ( M800 ), just was too busy to write it down here.
Here's the Video on Youtube: R1 Starttest/Motec
Oct15/2009
The raw work is done so far, all OEM ECU functions are now controlled by the Motec ECU.
Here's the R1 to Motec M800 Piggyback wire harness Preparation:
Oct14/2009
The Motec M800 test wire harness, not completed, but worth to collect a few Information's.
The Video about R1 Velocity Stack Control: on YOUTUBE
Oct13/2009
What I'm attempting to do now is now create a Motec M800 wire harness, which connects directly to the OEM ECU Connectors.
In the end those wires you see will be separated into two strands, one connected with the OEM wire harness, the other one for the Motec on top Functions, such as:
Traction/Launch Control
Quickshift
Suspension sensing
GPS
Wide Band lambda
+ Datalogging
....and more
Oct12/2009
It is at it ever is, the Basic Motec wire Harness..
Decision of colors
Then the Connectors prepared, crimping Job done:
Oct8/2009 - started to develop a race Alternator and a light rear Brake Assy
Oct4/2009: start disassembly
