  1. That's awesome. Might have to have a go at that myself.
  2. If it starts to miss when it gets hot, might be worth swapping the coils for a known set of good ones. I've encountered this problem a couple of times over the years.
  3. How wide is the rear wheel? I think the race ones are wider at 6", where as the road ones are 5.5". The race ones were lighter than the street ones. I like the look of them when they are anodised black.
  4. Went for a short ride on the RK today, for the first time in a long time. My knees are very unhappy.

    Dymag will make any of their wheels in the standard fitment for just about any bike. As Dezza says, they come with their ow sprocket/cush drive on the rear. The front will be the standard disc bolt pattern and support the standard speedo drive. I think it is the same for other aftermarket wheel manufacturers like Marchesini and Galespeed, you can order then to suit.

    Yes, they're Dymag SB5's. Nice.
  7. I loved mine. Had a full Yoshi system on it. Thought it was a great road bike, and I don't think the rotary damper was an issue on the road. I didn't have any problems with mine, up until the time that I rode it into the side of a car.
  8. I feel incomplete without a 92 tiger stripe model. One of my 3 slingshots, an 1100K, mostly standard.
  9. I was told the Kawasaki's use a M8 mounting bolt, whereas the slingshots use M10. Haven't verified this for myself.
  10. You didn't mess around getting that done. Looks great. The Akrapovic systems sound really nice.
  11. I never tire of looking at pictures of that TTF1 Heron Suzuki.
  12. Does it still have the tank mount rubbers on the frame? I think on the 91 and 92 they are screwed on, whereas they are glued on with the 89 and 90 frames. The top shock mount is bolted on with the 89, so that is another thing you could look for. I think the subframe on the 91 and 92 models is different, but I'm not 100% sure and whether it's easy to pick in photos. Hopefully some else can confirm this.
  13. I think only the 1989 K has the removeable mount, after that they were fixed.
