    Anybody seen one of these before?

    Sorry for the lousy pic's, but it's in the "boot" of my TL1000R (fitted with an SP1 bum if you're confused by the lousy pic's) and I'm guessing it's some sort of Power Commander-type wizzbangery given the comm's port and LED "scale". I haven't seen a PC that looks like this though, and it has no branding or markings except for the numbers:

    E3925 TLR9838076

    Even that smart fella Mr Google failed to find anything very enlightening for either number.

    Thanks in advance for any info.

    That's the flux capacitor drive unit. Nothing happens at 88 without it mate.

    It's definitely a thingamajig for your watchumacallit and specifically for a TLR going by the serial code.

    Whatever it is, it looks very homemade. Not saying that's a bad thing, but if it's the case you won't find anything about it on the 'net.

    One can only assume it would be very handy if you could find a use for it.

    I think this man could be onto something. Did the bike come with a helmet that has ally foil glued inside it?

    Haha, shoulda known you'd sniff out the pony car Jimmy. I'm afraid it's no show car mate, but still fun to point towards a pub.

    Think 15" Magnum 500 rather than the similar looking 13" ROS style and you'll soon figure it out. And that's about as clean as it gets with my mongrel driveway: 400m of steep dust or mud depending on the season, and thanks to the toploader (big hint!) rather than auto it's a ditch digging experience trying to get moving again after the hill start at the gate.

    That was my first thought too, but I think this is a lil' low spec for his sweet TLS, this looks more high school electronics project than genuine Suzuki or top shelf aftermarket part.

    Yeah, it's got a touch of the "made in and sold out of the back of a truck" eh? But then it's actually got some sort of part/serial number which makes it think it must have be commercially available at some stage.

    If it was separate it would be in the bin by now, lol. No, there are a few wires hangin' out of it going into the main loom. I've just sat it on the tail piece for the pic, it was originally tucked in the boot, cable tied to the subframe.
