Well, it is expensive, but would be worth it if it did the job. More money down the drain if not. Have to look at their return policy. Thanks Max.

CB1100SA AC:
1. 38770-MGC-A73.
2. 38770-MGC-A74.

What's going on? Do any other Honda products use these same part number PGM-FI Units?

No returns on electrical parts.

Already discussed in other threads here... plenty of places online you can order and even though 'the rules say' you can return things with no issues..

Dave, I think the SA is the DLX. To the best of my knowledge all US CB1100s are saleable in California.

As for whether the parts are used on other bikes, try here https://www.bike-parts-honda.com/honda-m...rice/3750.

Enter the part number and search. 38770-MGC-A73 is only for the CB1100; 38770-MGC-A74 does not return a result.

I entered 38770-MGC-A24 in Google and several places show it for sale including Partzilla, Revzilla and some on Ebay. Partzilla is the low price at $478. with the highest an Ebay seller at $706. I believe Parts Fish was a little higher than Partzilla.

Yesterday i bought two 330 ohm resistors, unplugged the iacv and installed them in the iacv connector;



and put insulation tape around them to keep things in place;



Before i did this i had switched the cb off when coming back from a ride so the engine idled at 1050.

Lifted the tank, removed the plastic panel and disconnected the iacv ( in the 1050 rpm position )

Then went for a short ride with the resistors installed and all went well, engine drove as usual, no change.

This morning the engine was cold when i started the bike and this was the result;

There are several other options, one example is having a two way switch change from having the iacv immobilized with the resistors or having it operate normally, this requires ;
A double pole 2 way switch, the two resistors and two connectors, one male and one female 4 pole connector.
That way it is very simple to alter the position of the iacv when the situation changes ( colder weather )

If this worked for me it may work for you, cost; 1 dollar for the two 1 watt 330 ohm resistors, what is importand is the diameter of the resistor leads which is 0,7 mm. so they fit correctly in the female connector.
