Here's info for ABS I:

Your bike has ABS II but the ohms for the sensors are probably in the same range.

Hello.  I am trying to determine if my ABS sensors are good. 
Using a multimeter, what should be the optimal resistance of these sensors?

Back when I was buying parts for a lot of different projects I got pretty good at sniping with bids in the last 2 seconds of an auction.  Stole a lot of stuff at good prices that way.

I just use sniping sites. Much easier.

I've sold parts on eBay that had a frenzy of bids the last 30 sec, be nice if they adapted a system like that.  At least if you're a seller.

I'm sure Ebay has considered it and decided not to. Near as I can tell Ebay wants to be a buyer-friendly environment to encourage repeat buying. Extended bidding wars like that would cause people to spend more than they really want to. And then they'd swear off using Ebay ever again.

Sold for $9,500.

BAT is cleverly set up to encourage bidding wars. Within the last two minutes if anyone bids then it resets the countdown to two minutes. This K went up $2,200 at the end.

Mar 23 at 2:03 PM $9,500 bid
Mar 23 at 1:33 PM $7,300 bid


I hope Ebay never figures this out. :nono2:

I know exactly how you feel. After a year or two of soul-searching and a military style decision brief I decided to sell my 85 K100RS. I was the 2nd owner, mine since 1988 it had just 400 miles on it! I rode it hard, several cross countries, a 4-corners ride and many trips up and down the east coast. It had nearly 300,000 miles on it when I let it go, never let me down. Aside from wear and tear items I never experienced a major component failure. I sold it plus a trailer full of parts that one seems to collect "just in case" to a young lad who is, as we speak, converting it to a cafe racer. Perhaps it sits in the barn where I delivered it.
Age, riding position, bad knees, etc, etc, kept me off the RS and my LT became ride of choice.
Bicycles have become my new obsession as well! Mt biking in particular which has led to more injuries than I ever received from riding the RS!
go figure.
Make the tough decision, let 'er go.
