Recommended Posts

Just bought a 2014 TR280i with an explorer conversion kit 

1) how do you connect the explorer tank to fuel system 

2)  does anyone have the part number for the easy start system as the one supplied doesn’t look correct ? 
 

thanks

Part number for the Easy Start system is 1160030214.  There were at least two different versions of the printed circuit board manufactured, but the changes were nothing a typical rider would care about.

P.S.That's cool to convert the trials model into an Explorer as you'll have the superior suspension components.

I’ve had two Explorers, currently have a very low hour one. 

 

 I am not sure the port in the fuel tank is drilled on the TR.  Easy mod- BUT you have to pull the engine so you can pull fuel pump etc.

Yes, it is tricky figuring exactly twists and turns to get engine in. At least it is light (I weighed at 36 lbs - 16kg). 

That is one thing I did not like about the design, even though I never had to pull fuel pump or filter out in hundreds of hours, it is not easy. I always filtered the fuel- just in case. 

It would have been interesting to see engine installation done at the factory.
