Converting my motorcycle to EFI

[John Dammeyer]

Hi,

I'd be more inclined to turn a car into a first dif_efi project from a
safety aspect.  If you design a system that uses a laptop PC to monitor
engine parameters you can take someone along to monitor stuff while you
road test.  Trying to do that on a bike is more difficult unless you
have a chassis dyno.  While driving along your attention will be
divided.  Once you have a good handle on how the EFI works retro-fitting
with some experience onto a bike is a lot safer.

Cheers,

John Dammeyer

SO, let me try once more.  Please bear with me =) >

	I have an old (1983) Honda Interceptor, a 4 cylinder/4
stroke/0.750L carburated motorcycle, and was wondering about converting
it to EFI (I would leave the ignitiona alone for now).  How hard would
it be?  At first glance, I would think a system designed to handle FI in
a 4cylinder car could do the trick, if I could do something about how
much fuel is being delivered (injector size?).  I also thought on the
diy_efi boards since I would be able to adjust delivery curves as
needed.  But, we then have a problem with finding suitable injectors and
an airflow meter that would fit.  Suggestions?  I guess I would love to
make that my first diy_efi project =)
