Bored to
death during christmas holidays? Rip your carbs from the bike
and give them a quick check-up to have your bike running and
spinning again in springtime! I've written a
small article describing how I do it on my Mikuni RS's. |

Suzuki’s early GSX-R750 has always
been a popular bike for special builders. French firm Motomate
has taken it a mad stage further.

All
summer long I wanted to convert my buddyseat, lower it a little
bit and have it blue upholstered. Before I took it to the upholstery,
I prototyped it with PS5. See what it looks like here. |

Last weekend
it was freezing for the first time so I spent some time in the
garage. I was planning to do some minor cleaning but before
I knew it there were parts scattered everywhere and now there's
only a bare frame and engine left... getting carried away I
guess.
Plans this winter are to create the ultimate wiring loom that
will produce the fattest spark this side of a nuclear chain
reaction!
Inspired by an article written by Tony Foale I think I have
created one of the most efficient wiring looms possible with
the help of Ludo. Aim was to provide the highest current to
the ignition coils with as less resistance = connectors as possible,
we did this by feeding the coils directly from the alternator
and switching it using a low-resistance relay. The mass of the
coils is connected directly to the - pole of the battery. Have
a look at the final
schematic, the complete article will follow later on. -

Martijn has
sent us a wallpaper
of the most wanted heart-transplant donor, the GSX1400.
Come to think of it, as my GSX1100F engine spits out at least
40 horses more at the rear wheel I might just be able to tempt
a fresh GSX1400 owner into a swap... maybe ;-) |
