  • Page 155 Air intake injection system INJECTION SYSTEM TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS INJECTION TIME (INJECTION VOLUME) The factors for the determination of the injection time are the basic injection time that is calculated on the basis of the torque request, the r.p.m., the pressure of the intake duct and various compensations that are determined according to signals coming from various sensors that reveal the condition of the engine and the riding conditions.
  • Page 156 Air intake injection system INJECTION TIME COMPENSATION (VOLUME) The various sensors allow the injection time (volume) compensations to be carried out on the basis of the follow- ing signals. SIGNAL DESCRIPTION When the atmospheric pressure is low, the sensor sends a signal to the ECU to reduce the injection ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL time (volume).
  • Page 157 Air intake injection system FUEL FEED SYSTEM The fuel feed system consists of the tank, pump, filter, feed tube, feed tubes (including the fuel injectors) and the regulator of the pressure. The fuel in the tank is pumped into the feed tubing at a controlled pressure by the rel- ative regulator and maintained at a certain constant value higher than the suction generated by the motor.
  • Page 158 Air intake injection system FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR The fuel pressure regulator is a diaphragm pressure release valve that consists of a diaphragm, spring and valve. It always maintains the pressure of the fuel sent to the injector at 3,5 kg/cm (350 kPa).
  • Page 159 Air intake injection system FUEL PUMP CONTROL SYSTEM When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the fuel pump motor is started by the current supplied by the battery. As the CPU possesses a timer function, the pump motor stops turning three seconds after the ignition switch has been brought to the “ON”...
  • Page 160 Air intake injection system The ECU (1) is situated under the tank behind the bat- tery. The ECU consists of a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a memory unit and I/O sections (input/output). The signal of each individual sensor is sent to the input section and then to the CPU.
  • Page 161 Air intake injection system 2 INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR The temperature of the intake air is found by con- verting the resistance of the Thermistor into voltage and then sending it to the ECU. The volume of the injection increases when the air temperature is low. The resistance of the Thermistor increases when the air temperature is low and diminishes when the tem- perature is high.
  • Page 162 Air intake injection system THROTTLE BODY POSITION SENSORS The throttle position sensors are inside the motor of the throttle body (1). These sensors are potentiometers with a variable resistance based on the opening angle of the acceler- ator and operate in a crossed fashion. The sensors are powered by the ECU at the estab- lished voltage of 5V and provide, in output, a voltage proportional to the throttle angle.
  • Page 163 Air intake injection system INJECTOR CHECK To check the injectors proceed as follows: - Disconnect the connector on each injector. - Proceed with checking the reel of each injector - The contact must not be open between the two pins of the injector, also, the resistance value must be 11 Ohm ±10% at 20°C.
