Gradually Coming? Air-Cooled GPZ1100! Daytona USB Mount Meter Overhaul and Other Remaining Work.

Finally we got some sunny weather today.
It’s been such a rainy season and it’s getting annoying. Whether it’s better than being too hot is debatable though…

I’ll be steadily working through the remaining tasks from before.

I’m going to install the meter after overhauling it.

The original was a mile meter, and this time it was converted to show kilometers.
I was a bit surprised that such a thing was possible.

The panel appears to be something sold elsewhere.
The meter problem and concerns have been resolved with this.

I had a bad feeling about the GPZ meter area, so I checked and cleaned it up.
It’s reassuring to make sure you’ve covered the path you’ve already gone through once.

I’m going to replace the bar ends! Please no rubber type if possible.

This is a request to replace the knurled finish bar ends that were brought in.
I really hate this rubber-fixed type.
I think there’s probably no one who likes this method.

Above all, the installation fit is extremely subtle and the tightening feel is very loose.
When you remove the bar end, the nut falls off on the other side—the worst situation.

So I’m going to combine them with the original bar ends.

Now it can be fixed firmly and is easy to attach and detach.
I really wish the entire bar end industry would make everything secure like this.

I’m going to address the back mirror where only my fist is visible.

I’m skipping ahead a bit, but I moved the mounting position to the rear.
I also increased the height by 25mm to check for changes.
When you raise it higher, the angle goes forward, so there’s no significant change.

For now, I want to see how it looks with the rear offset.

I’m going to change the wattage of the turn signal bulb.

When I replaced the turn signal, the included bulb caused hyperflashing, so
I increased the wattage.

Now it blinks normally.

The Daytona USB converter has become incredibly small.

The motorcycle industry has finally moved to a simple package design.
It gives a very simple and easy-to-understand impression.

At this point, I thought the package had just changed, but it turned out to be significantly miniaturized.

These kinds of electrical parts keep evolving and becoming very convenient.
The lineup and sizes have become dramatically smaller compared to a few years ago, which is amazing.
And now you can get them anytime, anywhere through EC sites, so it’s become a convenient era.

For now, I checked the output voltage and completed the installation.
The wiring side uses a 110 connector, so attachment and detachment are simple.
I’ve labeled the connector with P-touch to make sure there are no mistakes.

Just adjust it to your preferred position and use it.

I’m going to check if the sprocket cover can be used.

They look similar but are quite different.
The person who brought it in couldn’t install it because the cover hit the chain hard.
The GPZ 1100 seems to have the chain line quite far out.

Unfortunately, please search for another one.

That’s how it’s been completed.
The screen has also been replaced, so please rest assured.

I’ve mostly finalized the plan for the fuel tank paint processing. More on that later!

All that’s left is a test ride and we’re done!
