Steve, something that might help in a decision, since ya'll will be installing it, what kind of warranty do you offer with it, if any?

Cant ya'll sell it as a full blown kit?

Why can't ya'll sell a kit or something for us DIY types. I would be interested if you did. A transition from West coast to East coast with the scoots is quite spendy by my standards. Just saying...:D

X2, I am with you Rob! I cannot send the Bike from Spain!!! :rolleyes:
 
Because they don't want the issues others are having with the DIY.
"I installed your kit according to the instructions but now this has happened or that has happened."
Juz sayin

I understand but it's not cost effective in my eyes! It cost just over a grand to have them install but yet to ship from West coast to East coast and back will make this price more than double and possibly have your scoot damaged in the shipping process. In this case I would rather do it myself and save some cash. Maybe later after the unit has been out a while they'll think about it. I and those far away could only hope...

All true but they could just be trying to generate interest in their area.
And if thats the case then everyone else needs a different solution.
Its possible they need revenue first to start expanding on it.
God knows there a number of projects I would already be offering for sale if I had the revenue base to pay for it.
My focus is going to be on continuing the BD concept as I believe they were on the right track but just did not get to finish it.
I still firmly believe that the vast majority of EHC issues were and still are be caused by the end user.
Even if it is inadvertently. And if those loop holes can be closed the EHC is far superior to any other system.

Yup, my thoughts too! Maybe once it's proven to be reliable and more interest, they may sell over the counter...:2thumbs:

What are the advantages of an ehc over other setups on a naturally aspirated motor? Wouldn't it be easier to have a basic fused harness with flashers and relays? Just curious.
 
The potential with the EHC is big.
For purests, and you know who you are, you don't put anything else on a chopper but I'm no purest and I like to ride my chopper and I want creature comforts on it when I ride. I would like to have an integrated GPS system and music along with a rider to rider system. I'm not talking about building that in to the EHC but you do need power outputs e.t.c. Also, I like the idea of having everythig integrated and automated. The issue with the EHC is they should have made it more accessible and repairable.
Features could be added that you can't get on a fused 12volt system.
Remember I'm speaking in the custom chopper arena where space is limited.
Not a Harley dresser or something like that where you have loads of room to put shit.

So in the context of our bikes, assuming bdm did not have creature comforts in mind, why would they choose an ehc over a more conventional harness? I just wonder what the "round table" conversation was when they made that choice.

Sounds good, but why not answer the questions being posted on here. Sure we can call and find out, but we want to know as this pertains to 99% of the members on this forum. How many Bikes have you installed your product on and of those installed how many are members on this forum that can support your claim. Let start with posting the answer to those questions posted above and we will all be happy :D

$1,100 bucks?!
I'm no expert, but did the PDM myself... including a switch for the air ride. It isn't that difficult .

I assume when they were sitting at the round table they said. "Look we got these $30k bikes we are selling with large fat tires, baker transmissions, S&S Engines for the most part top of the line equipment all around. Compared to a lot of the other custom chopper manufactors. We need to ensure that if someone is beating on the bike we don't have to pick up the warranty work because let's face it the parts are expensive."

So It was used for basic diagnostic, they included how long the bike was ran at certain RPM's. If the bike was ever lugged? did it ever hit redline? if so how long? and how many times?

A standard power supply wouldn't offer the memory and communication required for that.

I agree with others that we have quite a few competent DIY types so this will not work for people that don't live close.
