Just watched this entire build playlist in one sitting... and this isn't even my first time watching it.
Great job on the video. Can you tell us the size of the Deutsch pins you used that go into the m unit itself? Thank you.
Perfect how to.
Appreciate the video as I haven't any other on the 3 wire and ring connector. A longer video on all the connections and ground placements within the switch housing would be awesome.
@@steveatkinson9401 the 3 wires into one is the ground for all 3 switches bundled together
@CognitoMotoTV Thanks so much for the fast reply!! I bought a motogadget wre bundle but it's all larger wire. The wires that go from the button out the center of the handlebars are same size as the 3 wires you just mentioned. Right? Thanks again!
here is a whole video on this. I missed that this was a short and not the real video. ua-cam.com/video/W3am7D7GiR4/v-deo.html
Exactly what I needed. Thanks so much!
Hola...me podrías decir de que moto es la horquilla invertida?
@@ezequielcoronel2002 cbr600rr
What model and brand are the mufflers?
i don't know who you think your bull-shit,en but them ain't no carbs off no 550, them are keyhole carbs and came on 77--78 cb750's,, title of this vid is wrong,,.... good bye...
This is amazingly educational and funny which is the best kind of learning. "I got a long shaft" lolol. I'm also going to guess you're one of the engineers doing this in a dress shirt and what looks to be after hours to shoot. I'm also an engineer, so I get it :)
If the Oshmo is draining back into the engine but you have a non return breather under it wouldn't that cause problems?
I understand what you're saying. The oil will accumulate because the breather acts like a one-way valve. It must pool and flow back when it opens, or perhaps it seeps back in due to it not being a perfect seal. I have not had any issues with this setup.
@@CognitoMotoTV thanks for clarifying. Planning to get the Oshmo when they are available again.
That is a seriously cool and clean build. Thanks for sharing your meticulous work methods with us!
Won't the sheathing you used collect a lot of water?
My solex carbs on my 68 912 caught fire. Almost burned the garage down. I’ll revisit this upgrade once I get an another. I ended up buying a 911 t motor I think for it. Sold the damaged 912 motor to a vw mechanic. I don’t know what I was thinking. But hey as a 25 year old what do you expect. Great car you got! If you hear of another reach out. I sure miss the early 912
Nice job, thanks!
what a nice wheel until u put that dirty as sprocket on it!
Lot of work and looks like it worked out. I solved most of my hot carb issues with phenolic spacers and shielding metal fuel lines. Beyond that you could pop the trunk at gas stops or even some mini efans. With Mopar you get a slow starter so a $30 pass through priming pump can help with quicker starts. A return fuel line to the tank can also help with vapor lock but with a dual carb that might not be fun.
A bit late to the party. Amazing wire work. I'm doing my m unit blue and just want to know what size AWG wire do you use. Is the input Wires the same size AWG as the outputs? Thanks
I have no idea what you did to sync the carbs. what did you adjust?

great video!
Where do you connect the three grounds from the controls?
damn! it looks good, btw compare it with a modern release of cb350rs from honda
what size braided pet sleeve did you use? as in the inner diameter?
We have like 3 different sizes. 1/8” 1/4 and like 1/2”
I'm confused? How did you mount it on the triple? Was there a hole did you drill them on there?
Is there a system like this for automoblies?
Yeah look at haltech they have a whole car thing
Looks awesome job where did u got the plug and all cables is it m.cable? I would like to buy the whole wiring set I already have the mUnit but I want to buy all the plug u had and cable needles pin female and male. Please advise thank you.
Anyone ever tell you that you look like Larry Mannetti from Magnum P.I.?
Hey I just purchased 06/07 gsxr 600 forks for my k100. What should I be running for my “desired offset” on the tree conversion when ordering from your site? I don’t want to have to move the take from the original location like I’ve seen a few others do.
What size tire will you be using
@@CognitoMotoTV stock gsxr 600 sizing. I believe 120/70/r17
@@austincannan6264 you can do a 40mm offset and leave the tank
Does this kit do away with the top hat spacers on the original wheel bearing set up?
Yes it does
Wiring Angel❤ Great and perfect Job 👍👍👍👍🔝
Hey, do you guys make a bracket for the older Goldwings? 1982?
good job👍
Whatever happened with to the 3CBs?
Great work. Do you have a wiring diagram?
Hey there Cognito moto I’m interested in getting these for my Thruxton 900, are they a simple replacement from the stock levers?
Are the universal Footpegs a simple replacement from your standard foot pegs? , I have a Thruxton 900 would they work
Not very familiar with how the foot pegs attach on the thruxton. These rearsets require 10mm hole.
Very nice video, thanks! What about all the grounds? Do you gather them in one place? Cheers!
Probably less than ideal to gather in one spot but I suppose you could.
@@CognitoMotoTV thanks for your answer! I was wondering about those grounds cause I don’t see them in your video. Did you separate them? (One for the handle bar switches, one common for the brakes, speedo, and neutral switch, etc etc…) I wondered if it would be convenient to have a kind of « ground bus » where every ground would connect with a nice connection to the frame for example. Thanks again for your answer and awesome vids!
Excellent video!! Love the fog lights! Your car is cooler than a 911, but the missing Porsche chrome flat dish hubcaps make it look like a work of art without a frame, or maybe it has the frame but not the matting...? I'm trying to say something is missing, unless you were going for an unfinished look?
Is necessary the M button ? For the switch's? I want to install just the switchs!!!!!
You dont need the m-button. We did not use it here. You do need the m-unit because these are momentary switches.
Absolutely incredible. Well done man! One can only dream of doing work like this at home to their own bike 🫡
I was lucky to buy one of these a long time ago a red 67. I would have preferred a 911 for sure- but I had just left college and everything seemed expensive to me 😂 . Now I have a nice set of nickies ready for it. The EFI would be a sweet upgrade. Nice car man.
great job! what size muffler? how long
These were 1.5"
Is there a video on how to install this headlight? I see that it’s not a simple plug and play
It should be a simple plug and play as it uses an h4 bulb
@@CognitoMotoTV right I do see that but there is no h4 connecter, would I have to connect the loose wires to a h4 connector and then connect that to the main bulb harness?
Brilliant job. I'm from the UK and have a 1968 Right Hand Drive 912. Bought it when I was 25 and I'm now 60. Like you, I started out with the Solex carbs and moved to Twin 40 Weber's, second hand off of an Alfa Sud. No money at the time, so you did what you had to do. My car still runs the Dynamo and Regulator. The car is lowered and had been modified before I bought it, to fiberglass front wings, impact bumpers and rear wheel arch extensions. It runs 205 tires all round on early Fondmetal alloys. Love the car and would never sell it. I will take it to the grave and my daughter will drive it home from there.
The 4-cylinder engines were well-proven unlike the 6 cylinder when the 911 body style came out. Lots of people think that 4 cylinders is just right.
I beg you. what exhaust set did you use?
That’s a hindle exhaust
@@CognitoMotoTV I mean a set of exhaust pipes
Great video. Planning my 3.0 single throttle body conversion for this summer here in central NC. Love the work you did on the car and editing the video!
wonderful car, my only bucket list machine, right color and everything!
Must get better mpg too
Just found your build series, fantastic. I’m have a question (or two).. Converting one of these BMW’s in the same way is something I’d like to take on, my question is once I find my diner bike, how many of these aftermarket parts, notably the rims with disk brakes, and front forks (as you ave used in your build), at actually available from third party parts providers “without” the need to modify the frame? In other words are a large majority of these after market part designed to retrofit onto the existing frames? The work itself, while tedious, does not concern me, I;m just not clear if I can replace items like the front fork with modern variants (like yours) with aftermarket’s without having to modify the original downer bike frame (welding, etc).. thanks in advance..
We manufacture and sell these aftermarket parts, designed for bolt-on installation. This means that modifying the vehicle's frame is not necessary to use our parts.
@@CognitoMotoTV thanks for the reply
Why do you seem so uninterested and least bothered regarding everything about this motorbike? Or it's just how you are? Great looking bike btw.
