... According to my VIN plate, it states both front and rear tire pressure at 35 psi cold. Your VIN Plate should be located in doorjam area. However, check...
Hi, I was wondering if anyone ever experimented with using acoustic dampening material either on the aluminum drive gear or in the back fiberglass cavity....
Current wisdom is to remove the rear sprocket and have it hard anodized. So far those who have done it are happy with the results. On Nov 1, 2004, at 7:14 PM,...
Chris, I have personally tested a Sparrow with the V10 with pulsing mode. The owner wanted to get my regulators, but I convinced him to do the experiment of...
RE: Sparrow Wheel Alignment Hello: I am trying to find out how most of you perform a wheel alignment on your Sparrows. I did an alignment on the spot at the...
Ed, Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I will likely be replacing my pack maybe springtime if it will last. I'll look for or ask for an update then. Good luck...
ZAP is in the process of selling off all of their used electric vehicles. They are automatically replacing the battery packs regardless of the condition of the...
This may be old news but it is new to me. The hightechscience.org/sparrow link gives a sneak peak of the new 2005 MM Vision. The specs say it has a 80-95 mile...
... Humm, looks like a Merlin to me (grafted onto some of the oldest Corbin claims about early sparrows). Anyone know what battery Myers intends to deploy to...
I havn't signed on for about two years, so I'm behind in my Sparrow Knowledge. Recently it has be taking 3+ cycles of the key to get the big click so I can get...
This does appear to be a picture of the Merlin Coupe. Notice the radiator grill in the front; not exactly a good idea for an EV. This site also has some other...
This group's subject is the Sparrow and only the Sparrow. I understand your interest in other vehicles and you should be allowed to discuss them... elsewhere....
... Sounds more like one or more loose connections to me. you should probably go around and (carefully! Hi Voltage!) check/tighten all the wire connections...
Notice also that it has an exhaust port on the left hand side. I would tend to believe that this is one of the many "Mock Up" Merlins that Corbin produced? ...
Does anyone know of a more power friendly headlight for the Sparrow? The ones that are currently on the cars are using 1999 technology. Is there a headlight...
... Well, you could install an HID headlight. This would drop your Headlight power draw from 5A or so, down to like 3A. This would save you 24 Watts. Of...
You must be kidding. Let's do the math. The headlight is about 60W. For simplicity, say it is 78W. This means is it pulling about 78W/156V = 0.5A from the...
I live in South Florida. My area has two train tracks that I need to cross twice a day. On one of the tracks they have trains that are over 2 miles long. This...
... In many places, motorcycles are required to have their headlights on at all times. It is definitely safer to do so. Turning off the headlight for 20...
The brushes are good for more than 100,000 miles. My Sparrow has more than 28,000 miles now and the brushes are still good. My conversion has about 30,000...
It's called spin and hype! Not worth the discussion. ... MM ... Humm, looks like a Merlin to me (grafted onto some of the oldest Corbin claims about early...
Why is everyone so negative? I have never seen so many negative thinking people in my whole life. Before you guys knock Myers Motors for trying to bring a more...
... I think it's called experience, and seeing claims like these repeatedly over the years. They have NEVER come true. The Sparrow was even advertised as...
You might have gotten empty promises before, but NOT with Myers Motors. So far they have done EVERYTHING that they said, and more. They have only had the...
You'll gain a better understanding if you are willing to read -all- of the posts since day one. Early on, there were many very positive (and trusting) people....
I understand your feelings, but you have to give Myers Motors a chance. So far they have more then proved that they are commited to not only helping previous...
