GS1000G mods- big bore and fuel injection

[coombehouse]

No change there then. Worth a try though. Btw what is the rpm logging programme you are using. I have not seen it before. I have only ever used the trigger logger in tuner studio which I think give more info than just a trace. Could be wrong tho as I haven't used it for ages. Have you tried it?

That screencap was from the tachref program that must be loaded in place of the MS FW. I had forgotten about MS2 extra having a trigger/tooth logger. I did a screencap of my Megalog viewer for the tooth log here:

Yes that looks more familiar but doesn't produce any eureka moments for me. Hopefully someone else will be able to suggest a solution. I guess you have already tried changing the rising/falling edge settings in tuner studio. Other than that I would only guess that due to the wheel diameter the pickup cannot distinguish the teeth from the gaps. Having said that you would expect to get a better pulse with the wheel with less teeth as the tooth to gap ratio would be better. How about trying the small wheel with the small air gap & without spark plugs fitted to remove any variation in cranking speed. Just thinking out aloud really.

Is this the time between pulses as reported by the mega squirt?

there is some periodicity to the pulses, along with quite a bit of randomness.

So what type of input does the mega squirt have?

This is reminiscent of the problem I had with the Innovate Sports RPM input on my WB02 setup.

Do you have a scope to look at the analog signal that the MicroSquirt is seeing? The is apparently signal with some noice. I have to ask but how are you grounded?

Have you looked at the signal to ground on the signal on the Microsquirt?

Okay, I can see what you say about someone else being able to repeat it but I think to create the initial running bike, you got seriously sidetracked.
The pictured is a 24-2 wheel and should work. You just weld a plate to your stock advancer to make it adjustable. Grind the cam chain drive teeth off though as you won't need them.
The one you saw was the older version. And I am also suspecting that maybe you need to remove the igi box between the pickup and the MS2 computer. s I think the switching unit could be built inside the MS2. And ask Arttu more how he did his. A turbo no less.
I would also say don't give up yet. And paying $150 for the Pamco thing doesn't sound cheap.
And if you need more stock GS advancer wheels and plates, I have several.
Note, the GSXR wheel is approximately 2.5" in diameter. Maybe I'llhave to rig something up and send it to you?

I'm getting closer, fiddling around with the timing and using residual fuel pressure it actually ran for like 2 seconds. I'm not going to pursue this since the trigger wheels are now no longer a press-fit onto the rotor shaft- they're too loose after being pressed on & off a few times.

The Pamco setup should be here by next Wednesday, so I'll tinker with it and see how it works.

1. Is this the time between pulses as reported by the mega squirt?

2. there is some periodicity to the pulses, along with quite a bit of randomness.

6. Have you looked at the signal to ground on the signal on the Microsquirt?

1. It's a tooth logger. It's supposed to log when the sensor sees a pulse. For what it's supposed to look like, visit this page:

http://msextra.com/doc/general/toothlogexamples.html

2. That's the problem from what I can tell.

3. Two options, one is called the opto isolator and the coil can hook up to it. I tried that first, and did a wiring mod as suggested by some folks at the MS Extra forum that came from a GSXR setup.

The other is called a VR (variable reluctor) input for that type of sensor or a Hall sensor, it has two pair of wires so a dual ignition can be run. Our GS is set up for this ideally, the pickups are 180 degrees apart. If the 1000 pickups were isolated as they are on the later 1100 engines, it would wire in perfectly. As it was here, the 1-4 and 2-3 pickups share a common (red) wire, so there are only 2 wires going to the ignitor box, not 4. My current setup has two wires in a shielded cable going back to a Weatherpack plug to connect to the MS. The shield on the cable is grounded to the frame per the instructions for this setup.

4. You're kidding, right? (I am, hence the smiley if you can't see it) I'm one of my friend Tkent02's worst nightmares, I buy $500 bikes and then spend thousands on them over time. I don't have the $ for an oscilloscope and don't know anyone that has one.

5. The MS is grounded to the frame on the rear master cylinder 8mm bolt. The shield as noted also grounds to the frame on the rear master reservoir 6mm bolt. I use quality ring terminals that I crimp & solder. I'm running new 6 gauge positive & ground cables from the battery.

6. I'm not sure what you mean by this. The MS has a signal ground circuit, as I recall it is common with one side of the VR inputs.

Everything done here in the past couple of days was with the 12-1 wheel.

I've posted more graphs on the MS2 forum. When I changed the noise filter amount this seemed to make a difference, but still nothing like the example page link I posted. I'm hoping to get some ideas from there.

Due to the trigger wheels starting to slip from being on & off too many times, I'm not doing anything else with it until the Pamco kit gets here.

There are some really in expensive o scope options these days. For $50 you can convert an I phone.

If you have a laptop to drag into the lab (err gaagrge) then this looks like it would be worth the money.

This was just a quick look.

It looks like the MS is a real hobby kit and you are encouraged to modify the PCBA's to make it work. This is really where you need a Oscope to see what is happening.

I need a wheel sensor for a speed input to my LM-2 and I picked up a relatively expensive sensor, but since it was on ebay I got two for only $20 ($10 a piece). Signal conditioning whether it is at the sensor or inside the MS is going to be pretty critical to getting a repeatable signal.

If you look at the attached figure, it looks like the same signal you have, but your noise is much worse; same spectral content.

[GS1000G Shopper]

I found that pulling plugs eliminates the dips so you get a better picture of how the wheel is being read. I also learned how to export only the graph part from the log viewer. Here are a couple of shots with the 12-1 with no noise filtering and no time modifications (the only 2 variables in Tuner Studio).

All things considered, the readings are not too bad. Apparently the longer/shorter bars are due to inconsistent gaps in the wheel. The really long ones are the missing tooth/teeth.
12-1:


24-2:

[ArttuH]

The 12-1 graph looks like it should work. It seems that the 24-2 is missing one tooth if I counted it right?

Just for reference, here are a couple of additional photos of my 24-2 setup. It seems to work pretty well now. Though I had some noise at higher rpms. I had to add a series resistor between the sensor and ECU to get it working up to 10 krpm.

[GS1000G Shopper]

I counted 10 short and 1 long on the 12-1, and 20 short and 1 long on the 24-2 for each graph. I counted 11 teeth on the 12-1 and 22 on the 24-2 for each wheel, I'm not sure what they are supposed to be on the graph so I looked at the example page.

I counted 34 on the 36-1 example on the MS page so it seems my graph is correct. I suspect it could be made to run with either, but am not sure how well with the variation being as wide as it is. The gaps look uniform to the eye.

The Pamco will be here today and I'm researching how to wire it in. If you could mass produce your setup for under $100, it may be viable.

[coombehouse]

Mass production would be pointless & a sure for way to lose cash. There is no demand.

Unfortunately then your parts, while nice and operational, are of little value to anyone wanting to duplicate this on their bike- which again, is one of the main goals of my doing this.

They are not my parts, it was just an observation. As for your goals for this project I was under the impression that you had already decided it was not viable.
