Took the shortcut up to the OHV which is always a rougher ride but I wanted to see what this suspension has to offer. I'm actually impressed with this bike and it will obviously do everything I need it to do. I cut the video a little short since it was a little boring on the paved road that I assumed would be dirt. :-( There should be a link at the end for my modifications.

      Yeah I basically followed the wiring from the rear sensor and right before where it plugs in a spliced into that wire, You have basically turning off the rear sensor which turns off the ABS. If you turn the key off and turn the switch back on it re-enables the ABS. Thanks for watching.

    Two very impressive and handsome examples of streamlined steam power, I really both the like the NYC Dreyfuss Hudson and the SP GS4 types and I hope to have one example of each of these locomotive models in my personal collection in the future at some point. I really like the streamlined steam locomotives as they have a unique appearance and I need to earn more personal income in order to be able to afford these locomotive models.

    Does the seat incline you toward the tank at all? My dealer has one of his own and he says the seat does that to him. I'm deciding between buying a regular height or tall one. I'm the same height and inseam as you. My suspension is stock.

    So I'm interested in building something very similar. Using the 140g or the 140 RF either one. And wanting to go with USD forks. But I want to actually add suspension travel in the process. Giving me full 12 in travel like a normal Motocross fork. Modifying the rear to do the same would be very simple. I'm wondering if that would have been a done deal if you had not added bump stops. Or is the forks just simply too short for 21-in front wheel that you used?

    Very impressive and handsome models of the SP GS4 type locomotives, these BLI models of the GS4 are the best models of the type currently available in ho scale and they have a nice variety of paint schemes. When I finally save up enough money 💰💰 for myself I will decide to purchase a GS4 model detailed in the black/ silver paint scheme such as the locomotive in this video. I always liked the SP GS series 4-8-4 engines in the black/ silver paint scheme as that scheme is very attractive to me as a contrast to the more popular "daylight" paint scheme, very enjoyable video- Tom.

      With 5" of travel and a certain percentage of that used on sag you don't have to hit a very large bump and the suspension bottoms out even at slower speeds or you have it set stiff enough to not bottom out and your ride is harsh. 5" just isn't much to work with.

    Yessir. These really are good bang for ya buck. I have, I think,6 BBs. 4 of them are Rivarossi.They are not all new, but they all have the motor in the boiler as opposed to the old version with the motor in the cab. These models run really well on DC, so converting them to DCC with a decent decoder, is even better.The only problem with the 90s runs, is they have a poor electrical pickup ( pickups on only 4 drivers) & are prone to failure, which seriously affects its running ability. I do have a later run ( about 4-5 years old ) model that has the upgraded pickups on all drivers.Why they didnt produce a tender pickup system, like the upgraded FEF3, beats me. I put a TCS WOW in one of the older models, & am still blown away with the smooth slow speed control.I never run my locos at more than about 40mph, so slow speed is a must. I think you ended up using the Tsunami 2 & that does run well at ss 1. Thankyou for a look at your loco demo running so well...Cheers Michael NZ

      I didn’t unplug any of that. My bike had an O2 sensor so I put an O2 sensor bypass on it but never touched the ECU or instrument cluster. Did you happen to unplug something by accident? If I remember correctly the kit came with a plug for the fuel injector and fuel pump but that shouldn’t have anything to do with the instrument cluster.

    I own an identical model along with the 5-passenger car set. I bought it a few months ago at the model railroad club I am part of for 90 dollars. I do also have the instructions and parts diagram of which it tells me my model is a 1994 release. The driver wheel flanges are made for code 83 from factory and it's cool that it is possible to DCC this model thanks to having a can motor installed of which I did do that, but I have an overheating problem. Turns out that the solder contact below the motor that goes to the pilot boogie was touching the motor. When I get time, I will fix that issue by isolating the motor better. My model does pull the 5 cars with ease and at high speed but when I added dcc, it ran slower but of course that was due to the motor isolation issue. when I fix it, I hope it can run at full speed.
