That sounds like it could be a hoon to take on track...

Cool info guys....thanks very much....I guess you have a lot of knowledge being racers

Yeh,they do say on the website tell them some info of your bike but I was really after some opinions on peeps who already use them,just to get a feel about how they perform I am going to contact them in the week also.

Peeps...have any of you recommendations on what rate of springs I should get for my K1 forked EFE...The current ones are too soft for my liking as it compresses way too much on hard braking.. The springs come in rates starting from 8.5 up to 10.5.... What do you guys use?

Yep,same here...My 'e' had them,once,along with the plastic bungs too...I might even have a couple still kicking about.

Td04... Impreza/Legacy flange...amongst others. Is it inlet you are after or exhaust mate.?

Yeh,if you had it in DWG file they just press a button and boom...job done.....do you know any draughtsmen who could quickly do a cad drawing for you...If not I could ask ours but I would need a gasket/template

If you cannot find them I do know you can get various style flanges from 'that' site...That's where I got some for a Mitsi and a Garrett in the past...

Ok cool....I may buy a selection for what they cost and have a play....the ratio you state seems a good way to determine sizes..

Can anyone tell me what is the best all round sprocket choice for a road going GSX/EFE.I have had a look on th calculators but i am after some first hand reviews It is being used on the street as well as a bit of sprinting/quarter mile fun..just for shits and giggles..nothing too serious...(Im running a 180 on a mildly stretched arm.) I do not thrash the thing on roads too much but I do like the odd short hard squirt now and again... I currently have 17/46 fitted at the moment.Cheers peeps.

I am going again this year...whether or not I will be on track is a different thing.....;)

As above..I too took my other big bike out and it started to grumble,almost notchy...thought it was the 'box on it's was out (it has a fourth gear issue anyway)....turns out a good squirt of chain lube did the trick....i'd try this first before condemning the box,it won't hurt and costs pennys...worth a go.If no better then at least it rules that out. Does it do it in any other gear??

'Use a lever long enough and you can move the earth'..dunno who said that but it works on big nuts

As for the battery there is nothing to stop you insulating it from the engines heat....oh and give enough room under the tank for the battery terminals...you do not want the live connection arcing on a fuel tank

Just thinking the same thing..... Much better now 4-3 has changed...

I demand a recount....;)

Me too although my heffa is lower than last time and may have even more trouble going around the bends!!!!....m'eh who cares

Thinking about it....if I get time I will do a couple or two

I don't think my welding would pass muster after the intake of alcohol,I get pissed sniffing Babycham!!! Ohhh,you mean an empty can as a tank lol

Just thought I would share the new catch tank I made for the EFE...Its only a trial fit as its a work in progress.However much I would love a genuwine Yoshi tank or similar I wouldn't be able to justify the cost to the wife Anyway,it fits fine and unlike some others it incorporates a support for the gearchange....its just a shame I don't have an AC welder at home.Its difficult trying to hide homework amongst proper work!!!!...It may not be Racefit quality (them boys are the cream) but it does the job.

Or big bore kit

Did you make a note of the compression readings after oiling the cylinders??

Cheers guys....I just had an idea to make a catch tank so the shaft isn't critical unless I decide to support this within the tank but the ones i've seen in US just utilise 3 bolts/holes.

Could someone enlighten me as to whether the hole spacings for the sprocket cover are the same for EFE/E/Katana.... Not having each model to hand (except efe) I cannot check for myself. Many thanks,Sheep.

How does it sound when it turns over?....if it turns/sounds ok could you do a compression check?
