R1 2005 5vy tilt swich
can somone tell me which colour wires and what value resistor i can use to replace the tilt switch on a 2005 5vy R1
Thanks

if it can be done i want to fit a resistor into the back of a plug, and use this as a type of imobaliser, what kind of tealeaf carrys a resistor
around with them, i know on older models its 470ohm, and either open or closed it won't run, so no chance of shorting anything out

Ive had a bit of a play with it, and my multimeter, but couldnt see any easy way to remove the circuit with a single resistor, as there are 3 wires
going into the tilt switch, and depending on if the switch is tilted or not alters the signal between all 3 wires

I wouldn't put a meter across any of the 3 wires, you may damage the hall effect sensor in the tilt switch.

I put some silicone in mine. I read somewhere that the resistor doesn't work on the later engines put don't have any proof. If you do
stick the pendulum make sure it sets in place before pushing the unit back togerther. Mine moved and then it took a while to figure out why it
wouldn't run!

I've done it on my 2003 R1. Put a resistor and switch to use as immobilizer. It works

It's the same as the older engine, 470 ohm resistor. From memory it's the blue to yellow/green.
I wired it the wrong way round to start and did no damage but I'm fairly certain it's what I've listed.

Why would you want to disable the tilt switch? I could understand if you didn't have one and needed to get the engine running but not if you do
actually have it.
I have fitted mine to the car so that if the worst did actually happen on track or on road atleast the engine will stop.

Hi Stuart,
on the bike the unit moves when the bike leans
keeping the pendulum and switch at the same angle.
The bike would have to go right over to cut out.
If you look at the way it moves inside it may be possible
for the switch to cut out under heavy cornering
in the car as there is no lean.
Not very well explained...... sorry

It is not needed in a car setup and won't work reliably on track. best is to either glue it or for one less thing to go wrong remove it.
If you do keep it as standard and it activates, it's a latching switch so you need to power off the ignition and turn back on to restart the
engine. Not idea if it's mid corner and you need power.

Pretty well expained I think. Last night I started a reply but couldn't explain it clearly so gave up.

I have had no problem with mine fitted to the car in the same orientation as fitted to the bike. I will keep it fitted then if I end up on my side or
upside down in a ditch it will hopefully cut the engine

Take care because you are applying G forces to the switch in a car that are not applied on a bike. Hard cornering in a car applies lateral G while
hard cornering on a bike applies vertical G. I'm amazed the switch has not activated already. Presumably you don't take it on track?

We have the tilt switch fitted on our race cars. It is mounted as it would be on the bike with the original rubber mount. If you have seen any of our
videos you will know that the car gets pushed pretty hard and bounced off ripple strips etc.
We haven't had any issues and as Stu said it may come in handy one day. I was thinking more to cut the engine/fuel pump than anything else.

Wow, thats pretty impressive, I would have thought if you pull 1g in the corners (which you probably do) it would be sufficient to trip the sensor as
if the bike was on its side. Perhaps it needs an impact, not just laying the bike down like in a low-side.
Greg, I've also got a Muffett diff question for you. I'll email it to you.
