Back in the saddle again
That clamp is wrong. You can see that. Just because someone says it's a replacement for the Clic-R doesn't mean it actually is. If the hose is loose, fuel can leak into the hose inside the tank and then out wherever the hose leads. That's not BMW suggesting the 500 clamp as the replacement; it's just someone at MAX.
I thought the Proebeemer project was abandoned. It's good to see it active again. There was a thread on UKGSer about it where the issues were described; from memory the ability to install a float depends on whether or not the bike has ZFE-high or ZFE-low. The models with ZFE-low were made with both styles of sensor, and can be recoded somehow, The models with ZFE-high only had the fuel strip and don't have the programming for the float. Or something like that. The Proebeemer device makes the float look like the strip to the ZFE, right?
Anton,
Would you have any problem installing that type of clamp if it was the proper size?
The Proebeemer.nl web site offers this explanation for this RT conversion kit:
The electrical feature of this float is different than that of the original BMW floats so that I have an interface Float Control 2 Created from a microcontroller with self-written (embedded) software to read the signal of the float and eventually, via the ZFE, send the signal to the display.
