Hex Ezcan Gen 2 - How to Install

  • Опубликовано: 19 июл 2024
  • The Hex EzCan Gen 2 is the latest derivation (Gen II) of the amazing original Hex EzCan accessory manager. It allows you to easily add auxiliary accessories such as extra lights, horns, brake lights, in fact any accessory you wish, direct to your bike via the Can Bus system - meaning they can be controlled by your bikes existing switch gear, and easily programmed by the intuitive software.
    I'm going to be using the Hex EzCan to connect up the Innovv K2 bike camera system (vid coming soon), so this is just a quick install vid for the Hex EzCan system itself.

    Personally Bruce I would of put the power cable under that main bit of the frame just in case the seat was to rub it 👍 what are you finding the main differences between the new and old GS obviously more power but what else bud 💪👍

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  3 года назад +1

      Yeah I look back and wish I’d taken the time to route it within the frame, but it’s perfectly safe where it is, the seat doesn’t rub 👍
      New GS is smoother, more power earlier in the revs and throughout the Rev range, I also notice a secondary kick of power as you hit triple digits, and the gear box is much smoother.
      Massive improvement in my eyes 👍

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  3 года назад +1

      Aye that’s fine if your bike doesn’t have a canbus system, but the GS’s and a lot of modern bikes now make it hard to integrate accessories into their wiring looms.
      The EZCan simplifies it all for you 👍

    Completely unrelated to the content of the video, but I have a question regarding the suspension. Being a chap of, shall we say larger proportions, I’m curious how you would change the suspension to suit your weight. On traditional suspension, you can change the springs and valving to suit your weight, but with this new electronic suspension that has different modes, surely each mode is programmed to suit the stock setup. If you were to change spring rates and valves, would that then not affect the programming for the suspension modes? Do you have to have it reprogrammed to suit new springs etc, or does it adapt to suit?

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  3 года назад

      The GS adjusts to whatever weight is applied to the bike - so when I pillion gets on the bike you actually feel everything stiffen up, it’s incredibly clever stuff

      Essentially the EZCan is just an accessory manager that allows you to connect up to 4 electrically powered accessories to your bikes wiring loom, and even allows those accessories to be controlled by your bikes existing switches and buttons - all configurable via the ezcan’s desktop software.
