    Wanted for a 2011 Blade at less than the £55 that ebay seller wants inc delivery. I am sure there is a way to make one of these but i want something easy, sealed and reliable.

    For what it is, £30 or more is an absolute con... its essentially a couple of resistors and a capacitor... someone posted the circuit diagram on here the other day... the only tricky bit is getting hold of the correct plug but thats not essential unless you're really fussy. I suspect one could be made and encased in silicon for little more than a quid.

    Kickboxer.. you can make these things with a few items from Maplin Electronics like I made for Lambchops (as the link above). Total spend is about £1.90, but if your not keen on soldering wires etc, best bet is to go for the servo Eliminator from the guys above.. easy plug and play :D

    Have you still got the Servo motor? really straight forward to cut the plug off the motor side and solder this in, then a little shrink wrap over the top

    Gabby, that setup from the diagram in that thread won't work on 08+ blades as they changed the responses the ECU is looking for and its use will throw up the Fi light on the dash!

    Anyone got a diagram for one that will work on a 2011 Blade. Still got the motor, it's still in the bike doing no harm as the cables are disconnected. I only want to remove it to make space for a power commander.
