Hey Jon,
You say you needed a 3/8 NPT to 1/8 NPT adaptor for your sensor? How many
holes does you M1 have up front in the water jacket aside from the water
neck of course? My M1 came with two 5/8 x ? threaded holes, and one 3/8 x
24 threaded hole. Looking at my water temperature sensor, it will screw
right into the 3/8' hole without an adaptor. Just curiously wondering if
they made a couple changes to the intake.
