RE: Installed Vapor Stealth On RE

Calum122 · Guru

Well I've finally mounted my Vapor stealth after not having it for about a year.

I've sorted it out.

What do you guys think?

Sorry to say it but I'm going to copy Davids Idea here. Sorry mate. But I'm wiring an on light into the loom. See that bigger hole to the left. Got some LED's that'll fit nicely in there :D Can't wait to get it all spliced into the loom. Lol Such a geek for lights lmao!

Due to the yokes being so high I don't know whether or not this will sit beneath the clocks. Which is a shame but there really isn't much I can do about that...

Messy wiring but I love the way it hugs to forks :D

This is made out of the same stuff that I made my other one out of. Although this time I've used the really sort side to mount to the yokes. Hopefully this'll mean less wobble at high speeds.

Will get more piccy's when the cowls back on. See what it looks like then.

calum i like those risers mate, good job btw.

Calum122 · Guru

Literally just some generic ones matey.

:D

But thanks though.

I just like to finish threads off.

Will hopefully sort the rest of the bike out soon front end wise. And see how the unit looks then.

ShaunyBoy · Guru

your mounts are cast into your yz yokes, mine are bolted on, so i will try get something sorted.

Welcome to the vapour club ;)

Had mine for 2 years now hehe!

Calum122 · Guru

I've had mine for about 10 months mate.

Only just reinstalled it on the new setup.

Calum122 · Guru

Had it on me old setup and loved it. Just pleased with how its turned out o. The new setup.

How have you mounted yours?

Energized · DTR Legend

Mounted mine to my top yolkes with a custom cut piece of alloy plate :D

Nathlaad · DTR Legend

Ill mount you both with my penile vapour

Calum122 · Guru

Awww yes i!

You got any photos of that?

Calum122 · Guru

First attempt was made out if iron. Solid construction didn't vibrate at all. But rusted and looked gash.

Then made one out if stainless steel. Although at the time i could only get my hands on this thin piece so consequently had a ton of flex in it. Then found some old plastic and managed to fabricate one from that. Which i sold to slob. Then made another one.

Thought i would ask in this thread instead of starting a new one, spent all day trying to install this to my 07 re today everythings fine except the wiring to the dashboard. Basically I have wired everything up and I cannot get a spark unless I connect the yellow wire from the highbeam to the light blue wire from the neutral light which makes the relay click and I can start the bike first time but once put in gear the oil and neutral lights stay on, both worked fine before I messed around with them wondering if anyone could help me out would be much appreciated !

Can't remember off the top of my head. Use the haynes manual. Makes it a lot easier n

robertdtr · DTR Respected Member

Followed the wiring diagram but still cant get it working really stumped on this one

slob · Guru

I will look at mines tomorrow. I will be able to tell you wire by wire.

Calum122 · Guru

It's really only a few wires it can be. Even without the manual its just trial and error.

I know with mine it was playing up. Wouldn't let me start the bike. But a charged battery sorted that.

It's important that no exposed wires touch the frame. Also make sure you wire in a fuse to protect the unit.

robertdtr · DTR Respected Member

Dont think its the battery but will try anyway when I turn on the ignition pv does its usual cleaning cycle then its as if the kill switch is pressed in (it isnt) until either one of the wires from the main beam light (black or yellow) touch the light blue wire it will fire into life gave up with it tonight but will start again tommorow. Cheers guys

slob · Guru

I really like the vapour so far it is an excellent peice of kit.

My only complaint about it is that the indicator light is green like the neutral and not orange.

slob · Guru

I spliced the power wire to the small back light of the original clocks the one that illuminated them.

Calum122 · Guru

Yeah me too. But the power should not exceed 1 amp according to the manual.

robertdtr · DTR Respected Member

Are you talking about the brown wire which is on the same switch as the green and red ? Im guessing that I have a short circuit somewhere would that be whats causing the oil and neutral lights to stay on aswell?

robertdtr · DTR Respected Member

Disconnected everything to do with the vapour still wont spark if that makes a difference ?

robertdtr · DTR Respected Member

Thanks slob everything looks the same as what I tried still no joy im considering just riding it with the oil and neutral lights always on as far as I know it will still pass an mot like this ? Thanks.

slob · Guru

Yeah it should pass with those on.

Neautral switch could maybe be the switch but probably not if it was working fine before.

robertdtr · DTR Respected Member

Thats what I was wondering turns out the switch is activated in neutral by grounding it hence why the black wire was turning it on and allowing the bike to start will eventually get round to sorting it and will need to keep an eye on the oil level but I can live with that.

Calum where did you buy your Vapor Stealth from?, Cant find them anywhere, any chance you could post a link?
