XJ750 Police bike

Yea I got the same message. I would be all over it if I had the cash... But until the 900 is on the road my cash is all tied up

 

The pics aren't showing up for the police bikes. Are they in one of the photo albums? I was curious to see what one looked like. Any help?

 

Here is one from Dave Jackson's site:

Dave's Police Bike Page

I did have the others on auction saved but had some computer problems so no longer have the pictures.

 

Gudday all, 1st post in here for me!

I'm currently rebuilding an XJ750 Police Model and was wondering if anybody knew of any links for spares etc.?

I've had the fairing and panniers plastic welded so they are set for painting but I would like to track down the correct Paint Code just to be sure.

I've got a chap at MOTAT who'll, hopefully, be able to measure and photograph their XJ's radio box for me so I can build a repro one for mine.

I have the lights, although one of the bar lights is blue, the siren and ticket box but don't have a radio.

Any help or pointers would be appreciated!

Cheers!

Johnno

 

Hey Johnno,

You in Auckland?

Dunno about colour codes, but I have some pics I took off the auctions if your interested.

 

Heya Alive.

I'm down in the King Country, I have some pics already thanks, I might have to try a colour swatch from the local paint shop and see if I can get a match! lol

 

Hi Johnno, welcome to the site, hope someone out there has the color info you need.

Lots of good info here

 

You thought about asking the police? They can't have changed the colour that much, maybe they would let you get a match of one of the current bikes

 

I've tried the Police Museum but no luck.

 

I take it you managed to get a colour match? lol

 

Yup, frame, fairing, panniers, side panels all done, had new "Police" stickers made for the side panels. Finally finished the wiring, time for some new rubber and a wof and Im good to go!

 

Whew! Nearly there.

Here's a pic I took after she got a WOF today.

Think I'm gonna have to rechrome the bars before I attached the panniers and side panels.



One last problem I'm having is the Battery Warning light is always on, its charging OK so not sure whats going on there, any suggestions?

 

The sensor needs to go in a specific cell of the battery.
If it's not in the right one you can get a warning light.
I can't remember which cell it is but, there was just a thread on this last week.
Should be at the top of a search.

 

Thanks Hound!

I'd say it's this thread:

or here http://xjbikes.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=3 ... ttery.html

Will give it a crack tomorrow as I have the whole Easter weekend off!
(I actually think my boss stuffed up when he did the roster but I'm not complaining!)

 

Johnno, here is the thread I was thinking of.

 

Ahhh cool.

Got this linky too: http://home.netcom.com/~rvtucker/battwarn.htm

 

Got the chrome back today, mmmmmmm shiney!

Will post another pic when it's fitted along with the panniers.

I don't suppose anyone has any spare panniers while I'm here? :roll:

 

3,200Kl, is that really all its done? Looks good...the fairing is frame mounted I assume..do you know what brand it is? Maybe its off a 900, not often I like the look of fairings, but I can see the point.

 

Here's the Fix on the Battery Warning Light.

Splice a wire into the +12V Source of the Wiring Harness near the Wire for the Battery Sensor.

You need a +12V - Switched - Source that's powered by the Ign. Switch.
(The Wire which feeds the Tail-Light (Not Brake Light) works great!)

Add a 1/2 Watt - 2K Ohm Resistor to the Wire you Spliced into the Read Tail Light Power Wire.
Splice a wire to the Resistor.
Shrink wrap or tape.

Splice the Wire running from the Resistor to the Sensor Wire.
Warning Light goes out after Circuit senses voltage presence at right value.

Tail Light>/>----Wire>/>Resistor**>/>----Wire>/>Sensor Lead

** 2K Ohms - 1/2 Volt Resistor.

 

Johnno.... Didn't realise I was selling that fairing to an XJbikes member

Bike looks good
