    Great review 🤟🏻
    The build quality on these products are unreal as expected from the Germans. One note to mention is a full setup of motogadget will set you back around £1500 (all depends on accessories) It’s a lot of money for something you can’t see someone once told me, but in my opinion well worth it. The hardest thing to do with a custom build is make is look clean and simple. Often the cleaner the build is the more it costs and most folk don’t realise this. Motogadet allows you to have this effortlessly. Looking forward to seeing more 👍

      I agree with your comments, Moto Gadget gear is excellent quality but it is expensive. I have one of the early m units on my 74 CB550 with ‘M Blaze’ indicators that cost a packet all together. And your right, ones the wiring is done and the M unit is out of sight, it is quickly forgotten, I mean, how many times are you gonna change the way your lights flash after your done, you just want to ride the thing!

      Wayne Hawes I like your comment and yes you are right. Having the alarm and everything jammed into one little box to make it so tidy with an app to control it all is what I love about this.

      It can be an expensive setup, but you can see it. Every time you get on your bike you see it and someone who appreciates a good build will see it as well. 100% worth the money especially if you’re rewiring from scratch. Great video Dan.

      @CafeRacerGarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you Garry, It may seem like a lot however as you know its not just an eBay purchase so like you said the Germans have some serious quality in their products and anyone who has this on their bike will vouch for that I'm sure. as humans, we will always spend money on the things we love and enjoy.

      @badazzmaro ปีที่แล้ว

      That was actually my first question, I suppose this system is for people who want if someone wants a really clean look at they could completely avoid it needing a key they would do it so I would say having a backup fob might be an option there too, I mean it's a neat concept that all you need is your phone except for when it doesn't work which things tend to do

  • @ZuzukiEntertainment
    @ZuzukiEntertainment 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Quick tip for making this type of connection look very clean: Put solder on the end so the individual wires stay together and then use heat shrink to only expose as much as you need.
    Makes it look very neat and clean compared to just having a stripped wired.

    • @CafeRacerGarage

      @greenveg42 ปีที่แล้ว

      3 year old train but sharing is caring:
      You shouldn’t solder wires that go into clamped (spring or screw clamped) terminals. This is well known in industry. The solder will slowly cold flow and/or deform under pressure and leave you with a connection that slowly (and intermittently) goes faulty.
      Crimped ferrules are better and nothing is actually best from a connector stand point.
      All this is most important for connection transmitting power (like your headlight)

    1st time viewer. commenting very early in the video but that intro is fire. + i have one of these and it has revolutionized my bike. There's a lot of cool features you can control from your phone, and when i make the lights dance from across the parking lot, seemingly by magic, people are naturally impressed. plus all the security features are pretty slick (when random ppl comment on it as i'm walking up to it, I'll be like ya, touch the handle bars and see what happens lol, they all get scared). pricey but if you're rebuilding worth every single penny, if not for the features, for the simplicity of wiring, if you know how to ground a wire, and read a manual you good to go. programmed most of it on cheap amazon bar buttons with no issues.

Any mechanic will tell you that wiring might be one of the most frustrating things in a rebuild, but it does not have to be, and no I do not work for the company but the fact that someone has made their brain child available for us common folk is very humbling. It reduces your loom to next to nothing, just for that it's worth it.

    I am changing the loom of one of my Yamaha FZR 1000 Exup, this one from 1989. It was rebuild in 1991 to a naked, a monster bike years before Ducati came with one. Now I am doing it again to get away of the massive loom going to the dash, lights and so on. To make it neither I am splitting the loom up in two seven wires looms and one earth one. So three smaller looms go to the front above the radiator. But this unit seems to be a better way, so for the next FZR maybe I will give that one a go.

      The M Units (ie including the m-button) allow you to replace the 'top half' of your bike's wiring with a radically-simplfied version. All the handlebar wiring (even eg the brake-light switches); all the idiot lights wiring; all the blinker, tail/brake wiring, headlight wiring; the neutral switch, oil pressure warning and the kick-stand down switch wiring. They allow you the remove the blinker units, starter solenoid, all the fuses (and radically simplify all the wiring to those things in the process). They add a theft-alarm and immobilizer function.
      But they DON'T replace the 'bottom-half' of your bike's wiring - ie all the charging system, diode boards, the coils, points (or electronic ignition), and pretty much anything else entering or exiting the engine itself.
      Bottom line is that properly replacing the entire top half of a bike's wiring system is (with some exceptions) beyond the capability of most non-experts and definitely beyond those of they average backyard tinkerer. In contrast, the M-Units can be successfully installed by almost anyone with a few electrician's tools, a workshop manual with a wiring diagram of the target bike, a bit of time on their hands, and some careful thought , reading and planning. It's even easier if you get all the Motogadget peripherals (blinkers, switches and speedometer/instrument/idiot light unit), but they are expensive...

    Have a problem, when I turn on the main beam with the m-bottom, the taillight goes out. If I turn off the main beam, the tail light will light up. If I blink with the main beam, I light the taillight all the time

    That is strange how yours says mo.unit blue and mine says m.unit blue. I also ordered the m blade mirrors (which I’m still waiting for), and yours says mo. instead of just m. They are cool products none the less. I love my blue unit in my bike. 74’ cb 750 k4. Made everything simple for me.

      Tibby That is a very good question and unfortunately I haven’t dived into the settings that deeply but hopefully someone here can answer that for you and if not I would recommend asking Motogadget themselves, Knowing Motogadget I would definitely not be too worried about the bike switching off like that while you’re riding it. They tend to think of everything

    Hi Dan ! Have been following you for a while. I got a 1993 cb seven fifty. Looking forward to buy mo.unit ! I have some question. Do you still need a key ? Or do you need the mo.lock ? What about if you forgot your phone haha ? Very good content ! Cheers from Mexico !

    • @CafeRacerGarage
      @CafeRacerGarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s awesome dude and to answer your questions no you don’t need a key.
      And you won’t need the Mo.lock, however, having said that you do have a couple of options here, You can purchase the Mo.lock with the glass tube that can be sewn into a glove and works the same as the transponder key so you don’t have to have any keys on you.
      You can also set up an override ignition in case you lose your phone or don’t have it with you or it goes flat. I hope that answers all of your questions. Have a great day mate

      That really depends on a few factors. It will work with most bikes, but newer ones will have more and more proprietary electronics that won't work well with the Mo.unit. Anything with carbs is pretty easy to install it on though. EFI bikes can run one as well, you just need to make sure to do your research on what needs to still be connected to make the fuel injection run properly.
