FE 501s Baja Build: Part 13 – Single Track Testing The SX1 GET ECU

For the first time in over a decade, we ran out to St. Joe State park to ride single track trails through sand, clay, dirt, mud, and lots and lots of rocks. Considering this is the first time I have gone dirt bike riding in over 10 years, I don’t feel bad at all for the day’s 13mph average speed. Haha. ^_^ Overall, we were very impressed with the Taco Moto SX1 GET ECU single track map. The bike ran flawlessly from idle speed all the way up to redline. A quick twist of the throttle resulted in a smooth but powerful response from the engine. Even when bogging her down on steep hill climbs, she just kept pulling hard. I am very happy with the SX1 GET ECU and the Taco Moto team’s single track map. Stay tuned for more videos coming soon!

Enhanced with the latest technical innovations and producing more power than the previous generation, the FE 501s continues to be the most powerful machine in Husqvarna Motorcycles’ dual-sport line-up. A new engine for 2024 produces a broader spread of controllable power and by positioning the engine shaft arrangements at the ideal center of gravity, maneuverability is vastly improved. Aiding this agile feel is the new chassis, which has been developed and manufactured using advanced engineering techniques. Together with new WP Suspension, enhanced comfort is assured. Expertly assembled with high-quality components throughout, the FE 501s is finished with new functional bodywork adorned with white, yellow, and blue graphics inspired by the Swedish heritage of the brand.

Porsche 944 LS Swap: AOR Transaxle & New Camera Angle

Follow along as we take a very gentle drive across town to break-in our freshly-swapped AOR transaxle and test out a new camera angle. Stay tuned for more videos coming soon!

The Porsche 944 is a sports car manufactured by German automobile manufacturer Porsche from 1982 to 1991. A front-engine, rear-wheel drive mid-level model based on the 924 platform, the 944 was available in coupé or cabriolet body styles, with either naturally aspirated or turbocharged engines.

The LS based small-block engine is the primary V-8 used in General Motors’ line of rear-wheel-drive cars and trucks. Introduced in January 1995, it is a “clean sheet” design with only rod bearings, lifters, and bore spacing in common with the longstanding Chevrolet small block V8 that preceded it as the basis for GM small-block V8s. The basic LS variations use cast iron blocks, while performance editions are all aluminum with cast iron cylinder liners. The LS small-block has been manufactured in three Generations – III, IV, and V – with preceding Generations I and II of modular GM small-block engines having been based on the Chevrolet small-block V8 originally designed in 1955. GM recycled the “LT” designation beginning with the LS Generation V “LT1” in 2014.
