  1. Never tried it but a 17" might go in. Will need different calipers with adaptor plates to make them fit I would think.
  2. Welcome. Nice GS that. GSX was a bargain!
  3. Welcome to OSS. What's you plans for it? Got two myself.
  4. That's going to be a nice build. Keep the info coming
  5. Finally got to the bottom of my charging issue. New Electrex RR fitted now charging at 13.8V, but lights still dim. Stripped every connector, cleaned pins as best I could and sprayed with contact cleaner. Still the same. Wiring mod had been done, all three generator outputs feed into RR. Cleaned frame and engine earths, still not right. Friend said it would be the battery. Was skeptical as it's not too old. Swapped nearly new battery off my other ET, and guess what, no dimming of lights. So problem was battery, even though it holds a charge fine. So all sorted. Thanks all for your suggestions and advice
  6. Great build thread, looks great and the wire wheels are awesome.
  7. They can vary a little but 227 to 230mm seems to be the norm in my experience.
  8. On my to do list for next week. Thanks for advice. Will do the wiring mod if not already done.
  9. Glad to hear that's not the end of the GSX's exploits Max, I've enjoyed following this thread as a previous GSX750 racer
  10. Thank Arnout. I have three yellow wires from my generator, electrex unit. I can find which two come from RR though and join the third wire to the RR. Why do they run that wire through the lighting switch anyway? Thanks for the info, hope it solves my problem.
  11. Anyone know how to bypass the switch?
  12. Cheers Arnout but didnt see your post until after I ordered a new Electrex one. I'll look at your suggestion if I need another one. Thanks
  13. Thanks for your help guys, sounds like a job for a rainy day
  14. Better strip body work off and check everything. Will run temp wire from battery to frame and engine, see if that helps? Cheers
  15. Still not right. Rode in the dark last night and headlamp was poor. Pulled up to my garage and when engine at tick over it got bright again. Rev it up and goes dim until engine revs drop. New Elextrex reg rec fitted so would hope it's not that? I'll have to recheck generator output to see if that has failed. Charging voltage at battery with engine revving is 13.8V. Any ideas
