HTEV & Servo
WTG guys! I would guess that to end up a hot product. Let me know how much they are going to be. My servo is still working fine and under no load so may be OK for a long time but wouldn't mind having that on hand just in case. I never did throw a light so must have got it right on.
Thanks for keeping everyone updated Steve!
About the only thing I have to add is that the Honda servo substitution will most likely weigh around an ounce. For a reference, Sam's Servo Sub for Yamaha motorcycles weighs 26 grams (1 ounce = 28 grams).
Production is many months away. The reason for this is because a shift in production process will be taking place for the Yamaha product at the same time the Honda is being developed.
Insofar as pricing, for reference, the Yamaha product is priced at $99.95, but with a change in production process, that may affect pricing (hopefully a reduction, rather than an increase). An increase in price could very well price this product right out of the market before it even has a chance to get going.

UPDATE:
Prototype H01 has been in Steve's bike since July 9th with no MIL light. Thursday evening we took oscilloscope traces for the purpose of optimizing circuit response so as to best emulate the Honda servomotor. Prototype H02 will be constructed with the optimized components and installed in Steve's bike for long-term evaluation.
Production plans based upon H02 components will happen in parallel with the long-term evaluation so as to expedite units into production. The reason for this is because, based upon my experience, I see nothing 'new' insofar as electronic components or packaging technology thatraise longevity/reliability 'red flags'.
Thanks again Steve. I could not have done this without you!

Got a MIL and FI error today. Is the FI light on normal with the MIL error? (Errors 9 and 35) 3 hours in the garage got it fixed...
01929er, you selling the midpipe valve replacement piece?
Thanks in advance

Problem came back. Should I gut the HTEV and remove the flapper and live with the code for now?
EDIT: Ok, now that I've read this entire thread. Will be unscrewing and removing the airbox flapper, removing cables, and welding that sucker in place. Any word on the servo eliminator avaiability? I WANT ONE! ie... PayPal is ready =)

One more thing.
I stunt, and at the practice spot keep my idle somewhere around 3.5k - 4k. Any forseen problems on dead stop "dumping the clutch" launches? Or how about keeping steady at idle in a wheele at somwhere near 2.5-3.5k?
Thanks in advance.

4 posts in a row... kinda talking to myself here lol.
Gears were shot in my servo. Got rid of the air box flapper, wired the HTEV so it's 4 straight thru... and finally got rid of my FI error by replacing the servo with a working one, plugged in, but no cables.
Heard back from Sam, and he's still working on the servo elimination mod... Soon as he sorts it out I'll probably pick one up. Might as well have more room under the tank to wrench on my bike lol.

Hi everybody,
I wanted to post upso people know I have notdisappeared. I estimate we will have a CBR product to market in the first quarter of 2009. This will be my last post in regard to this until a business/sponsorship/advertisingagreement is reached between Samanna Systems and the CBRForum. The last thing I want to do is step on any toes here.
