Getting An Electrical Assist | Fuel Injection/Nozzle

Take a deep breath, sleep on it and you will realize that what I posted previously is based on fact and is quite reasonable.

(2) Husqvarna FC450. The Husky tips the scales at 224 pounds (1 pound heavier than the KTM 450SXF). This can be attributed to the heavier plastic airbox, ice cream cone-shaped restrictor in the muffler and thicker brake rotors. It is 17 pounds lighter than the heaviest bike in the shootout (Suzuki RM-Z450).

I want a mandatory safety system, integrated with the regular headlights-vs-DRL switch, the hazard light switch, rain sensor, sunlight sensor (the thing that normally biases the air conditioning/automatic climate control on sunny days), vehicle speed sensor, forward and aft looking radar, and a new left lane sensor. This device will either blast the driver with an annoying, deafeningly loud screech or better yet provide real time electro shock therapy to the driver’s seat any time the person:

It is hard to believe that such small changes would bring about such a sea change in YZ450F steering response. Gone is the wiggle. Gone is the wag. Gone is the looseness on exit. This small fork lug change stiffens up the front wheel to allow it to follow the chosen path without deflection. With that problem fixed, the rest of the Yamaha YZ450F package came into focus.

According to Edmunds no injuries or deaths were reported because of this defect. This was something that Chevy has offered to fix or replace free of charge.

Oh no you say, 100 hp is not safe! Isn’t that hypocritical? Just like I would bet that most who are against government mandated safety devices also drive a pick-up or an SUV or have one for their family or wish to buy one because they believe that they are ‘safer’. Also hypocritical. I might even say engaging in ‘class warfare’ against those who cannot afford such a vehicle, the fuel, or insurance or have parking for such a large vehicle.

Here is the final assembly in the engine compartment minus the Edelbrock oval air cleaner—ready for the street.

(1/tie) KTM 450SXF and Husqvarna FC450. The KTM 450SXF has had the best brakes for years. Brembo’s 260mm front rotor used to be the biggest rotor, but Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki and Kawasaki tried to catch up by one-upping KTM with 270mm rotors. Guess what? The bigger rotors do make their brakes more powerful, but at the expense of modulation. The 2019 Husqvarna FC450 has the same brakes as the KTM 450SXF, save for thicker GSK brake rotors (front and rear). Husky opted for strength over weight because of its enduro clientele. 

For the electric power market, Cummins has further developed its battery range. The firm’s latest lithium-ion battery portfolio includes battery packs and battery modules that can be integrated expertly with Cummins’ new electric and hybrid powertrain portfolio, providing customers with a broad range of flexible, scalable power solutions for small and large commercial applications. Andrew Penca, general manager, Battery Systems at Cummins. “Cummins is committed to investing $500 million in electrification over three years. These investments include innovation of fully electric and hybrid power solutions that will serve our markets as they adopt electrification.” The BP74E (74kWh battery pack), BP35E (35kWh battery pack), BM44E (44kWh battery module) and BM20E (20kWh battery module) are Cummins-designed and built units featuring Li-ion technology. The firm says the units offer a high energy density and proprietary control technology, allowing a high battery performance for a longer zero emission range. They benefit from a modular design and can be scaled and aligned with the capability and duty cycle of the application. The range includes low voltage packs (BM44E and BM20E) that power material handling applications to high voltage energy dense battery systems (BP35E and BP74E) that have the energy needed for long range buses and trucks.
