Thanks for your reply it's much appreciated.

???? Why would anyone buy fasteners for their bike from Screwfix, unless in an absolute emergency?

In other news I picked this Onishi heat magic full titanium hand bent in Japan exhaust system today after a 4 1/2 hour round drive. It looks ace and weighs less than a packet of smokes .

Been running sport touring tyres on my 2 road going Turbo bikes both of which are around the 250hp mark and I like corners. We get wet roads as well as dry hear in North Yorkshire, can't fault them really.

Even Screwfix?

As standard no. But you can fit shorter or adjustable dog bones. This will only raise the back end though.

Assuming thats why he needs the diagram of course!

Point to mention - If the JDM loom doesn't have relays for the lamps, it would be sensible to assume the bulbs will be low wattage 35/35w types . . . . and in that diagram above, white would connect to white/red and yellow would connect to red/white (or is it red/yellow?) Switch should be capable of handling 2x 35w lamps at a time. Seems a bit foolhardy to wire relay feeds without a fuse, and in-line with alternator output so could get 14.5+v !

Hi there, I'm just wondering if the ride height on my Gsxr750m is adjustable, I'm on the taller side at over 6ft,I'm just wondering if anyone knows what I could possibly check or do. Thanks shane.

Go to your local fasteners supplier on an industrial estate and buy 5 to 10 of each different length M6 stainless cap head from 20 to 75 mm in 5mm increments. It'll probably work out cheaper than a 'kit' and you'll have a load left over for future use

This is the only one I can find for 750.

I’ve checked all the ones I have copies of and all have headlight relays, hopefully somebody can assist

You’ll find that most Busa owners who don’t fit hard touring tyres, either get very good at removing rear wheels or they are on first name terms with their local tyre fitter…. LOL. Im not a wealthy man, and I’m not some Rossi wanna-be track day hero, but I had to remove a pair of quite new Angel-GT2’s from one of my Busa’s, I fully understand touring tyres aren’t going to be super sticky but the GT2’s were truly awful. It’s a rare day I remove tyres with plenty of tread. I wouldn’t fit the bloody things if they were £1 a pair. 250kg / 160hp bikes can light up or chew up soft tyres pretty regularly if you like having a bit of fun.

All Busa’s came with an OEM 190/50 on a 6” rear. The B-King uses an exact Gen-2 wheel but came with a 200/50 from the factory. Its pretty common for both Busa and B-King owners to change to taller 190/55’s. I run 190/55 S22’s on a couple of mine. Some folk go for bigger / taller 200/55’s or 60’s. I’ve tried a couple of different 200 profiles but always gone back to 190/55’s. It’s not just the height and weight etc, I find the whole shape and profile of the 190/55 works well if you like corners. Theres a bit of difference in the shape and profile between s22 / 23’s, Rosso’s, M9RR’s etc but any of the better sports tyres work well even if do get eaten up quicker. I’d rather pay for tyres than punch holes in the scenery.

Thats a good point however

Eblag.

Mines an import so does not have the relays for the headlights so any 750 diagram with those omitted should do me

I was just thinking that looks very similar to the exhaust on my Moto martin, but the pipes arnt in the right place,?? perhaps the down pipes have been mixed up????

And yet it is still a bandit 12 sump that will do the job

Had to let the exhaust cool down first but yes looking like the o rings

Can anyone recommend a good quality engine case bolts kit for the GS1000? Stainless steel alan heads preferred.

Yes, this is what I'm thinking has happened but this is going to have to wait till end of summer before I start taking the engine out, didn't get to do much riding last year with house move etc so if it stops raining will be riding the other bikes before i start getting stuck in to the project

Except that is 4-2-1 !
