Don't think a good chain and padlock is a bad idea and sure I didn't pay any where near £100

4Rt Rear Centre Hub
Too true - complete wheel is a drop in part tho after 2000 model year.

4Rt Rear Centre Hub
How bad are the elongations. Sprocket should centalise using the centre hole of the sprocket to give alignment. Bolts just hold it in place via the clamping force generated when tightened up. The fit of the bolt in the hole on the hub is irrelevent once tightened so long as the hole has not elongated that much that there is not enough strength left. Any repair that does not involve welding and redrilling is not going to give that strength back anyway. .

4Rt Rear Centre Hub
Used to be able to just buy the hub if all else fails - 315 mont can be used but would need different sprocket and disc. PS What holes are you refering

What Can I Do?
Good luick with the rebuild as said above not many Fraser Hondas about. You may be better targeting the Sammy Miller series on a Fraser as the modern twin shocks rider the harder route in the Normadales

Need Help With 4Rt Twin Programmable Throttle Body
Top post Barfy - I can do the map stuff and now running my own hybrid map but the screen shots are brill. 1 thing I learnt is that if you read the data currently on PTB using the 07 software is that it only reads the last map you put in so you can't check what is already in map 1 or 2. The HRC instruction manual is on PDF in the web site i mentioned in previous post post but your photos are much easier. Main problems I have had is not having com port set correctly and I think you have to save a map into the software before you can down load it. Barfy - has you computer got a serial port or did you have to get a USB to serial port converter. If so what driver have you installed on PC. I recently reinstalled a driver for mine but its much slower than the one I had down loaded before. Used to take only several seconds to download a map but now seems to take forever. Cheers

Don't think there is a problem switching maps on the go. On the 07 software it asks you which mode you want to down load to (1 ,2 or both)

Need Help With 4Rt Twin Programmable Throttle Body
Exactly the same but will only do single maps and single PTBs. You need 07 for twin map

05 won't work so now in with a chance with 07. You need to make sure the maps you have are dual map compatible. I think the file name ends DM. There is a conversion software available on the net somewhere and also software to copmare maps which is really helpful. Check some of me old posts on maps.

check you have the 07 software.On the bottom rightish there is abox that ask waht you want to change-fuel, ignition,3d map and things like that. At the bottom it asks what mode you want to change- map1,map 2 or both. I think you have to open the map you want and then save it for software to know what you want

Btc! What's Happened?!
Clubs, centres etc can and shoulld be able to choose what rules they want to ride (event by event if it suits)- it works so why argue and change utopia. I ride stop allowed, no stop and have even ridden a few Time trials where marking is 0,3,5.its not an issue changing so long as you know before you start. Only thing that has changed is the rules for the BTC and thats what is being discussed as I see it.

HRC software needs you to tell it what com port is selected. Go to device manager and look to see waht com port you computer has active and then select this in the HRC software

I think maybe continual tweaking of the BTC is possibly not the answer and maybe 2012 will show this to be a watershed. S3 works well Normandales work well I assume Sammy Millers also go ok. BTC is struggling to satisfy many and not nesessarily doing it - Jack of all trades etc. The suggestions have been made before but maybe its the best way forward. Knock the current BTC on the head altogether!. Have a 4 or 5 round series just for the top boys - maybe an Indoor format outdooors on semi natural sections, charge entrance and run as profesional series. Maybe open to internationals and run as a british open. Accept it won't pay for itself on entry fees olone so needs subsidising through sponsorship, license levy etc and make it a real flag ship event. Get behind the other series to fill the gaps left by no expert A etc at BTC.

Need Help With 4Rt Twin Programmable Throttle Body
throttle bodies as either a single or twin map versions and not changebale . I guess if its a single map version it will ignore what ever the switch is on. On the 2 map PTB it reads the switch and changes map accordingly . You can have the same map in both setting on a twin map bike tho. Check yopur PC to see ifit has a serial port rather than just USB like on most modern computers

"Again great to get Johns answer, opinion and facts, but my question that hasn't been clearly answered is, What at the end of 2012 will measure whether the change to no stop has been a success? " Presume as happens every year all interested parties will be invited to the annual BTC meeting held by the ACU and 2012 will be discussed and reviewed and an agrement made for 2013. I think maybe a few more people may attend this year than in the past few years!

Switch plugs into a spare socket already there in the wiring loom under head stock already if I recall correctly. PTB just replaces original one. You then need leads, software, computer with an serial port or you will need a USB/serial port adapter, and a 12v battery. For 2 map software must be the 07 version. Maps must also be modded for a 2 map set up. Have search through past threads and all info there I believe

What To Eat ?
The coconut water is the next big thing. I was advised this a while ago as high in potasium but was not very popular to get hold of. At a recent food exhibition I went to via work there where several stands now selling and importing this stuff. Evidently Coke a Cola etc are investing big into this stuff. Personally I have fruit loaf and plenty to drink for brekkie and then alternate energy drinks/squash/etc and funs size choc bars during the day if a big trial. The handy small drinks in a flexible plastic container with straw are idael to stick in a bum bag etc and you don't have to worry about leaving cans and litter as weigh next to nothing to take back to the van at the end of the day.

Message from John Collins Re posts about Rd 2 British Championship I have read all the posts, and while not particularly wishing to once more go into the same old arguments, there are quite a few things I think need comment, not least the inclination of a few to stray a fair bit away from the truth I am certainly not ducking the questions or explanation, but as Andy has informed , at present for some reason the TC site will not let me respond to posts ( I know some may think this is a good thing) As soon as this is sorted out I will try to comment of some issues raised John Collins

Hi Mike As above but look also for Project 2000 - we do training and have some smaller bikes that can be hired for a morning/afternoon to let your son have a go for minimal outlay
