Hi all, After having my LWFF with bearings now, the only thing I would like to improve is the motor (without taking a mortgage on my house). The original motor is a bit noisy when turned and I can feel the magnets now (although not annoying). The RS-motor (7 poles) should run smoother and probably quiter. Does anybody have the spec (manufaturer, type, size, spindle diam.,...)

It's a Johnson motor. The only numbers I see are on a sticker. They are 98011 and 383921. Certainly I, of all people, understand the excitement of starting a new project, but the Force RS is only $139 and it already has the bearings and motor. Slot ;) "JS" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Hi all, > After having my LWFF with bearings now, the only thing I would like toimprove > is the motor (without taking a mortgage on my house).

OK,OK Slot, Seeing the latest quality shit and bad support from Logitech, probably I would consider the RS (could be a nice 2nd wheel - have to convince my wife to race too). In the moment I have my wheel almost perfect, so no real need to change. On the other side I have about 20 Ball Bearing kits lying around, so some people can top the quality of your wheel again <vbg>. Of course I know that you got the quality right out of the box - lucky you. Jens BTW Thx for the data, it's the same manufacturer as the Logi ones. BTW2 If Logitech doesn't get their ass up, I'm gonna rename my page to ACTLabs-corner (since you didn't want this name) and make some promotion AGAINST Logitech BTW3 LOGITECH, ANYBODY OUT THERE???

I guess that's the way. Probably I can also get a motor directly from Johnson.

Have you tried emailing the RS company and asking for a replacement motor for your wheel?They may just send you one for free or a small price. On Thu, 23 Mar 2000 03:34:19 GMT, [email hidden] (JS) wrote:
