I am reading mixed pieces of information, can anyone confirm if b6 headers will work on b12? Also I called a breaker and sourced a slingshot 750 for €400. Will the bandit carbs work with this? The breaker said the bike came from UK and was tuned well running on Slabby flatslides, another forum post says these are too small at 29mm so would the 32mm B6 be any better once jetted and dynoed or should I get something bigger while at the breakers?
-
It does seem tempting, buy a 12 and cdi or rebuild the 750, I have terrible look buying second hand parts though. What would I need for rebuilding the 750?
-
Will B6 exhaust, carbs and cable clutch work with b12 engine? Will everything line up alright?
-
I had thought about that but isnt that a pain to work on afterwards, no access to spark plugs and the top of the engine. I have a friend who offered to rebuild it if I get all the parts. Not sure what to get or where to get them but Ill look into it. I had a set of B6 carbs rebuilt for the job, bought gsxr 750 cdi and new b6 exhaust so I have alot of money put into the 6/750 route. Not really sure what to do now. Any recommendations?

And it just dropped a valve. Back to square one. Rebuild worth it or just hit up a breaker?

I swapped the black/white wire with the white wire on the loom side of the connector. I plugged in the GSXR CDI and bam spark on all four cylinders. The bike still did not start however the battery is weak. I was getting a strong spark on cylinder 1 and 4 and a weak spark on cylinder 2 and 3. Is that normal, perhaps a bad coil for cylinder 2 and 3? Is there something else that I am missing. I havent connected the signal wire for that tacho, only wire I dont know about now is the Orange/Red on the bandit loom, not sure if its needed or what it should be connected to?
-
So I managed to track down a few wiring diagrams and this is what I have come up with. Not 100% sure what to do from here but I know what I can try anyway, Can I take a feed from the coil wires to power the cdi and a feed from the 3/2 coil to give signal to the tacho? Everything else I should be able to just match up the colours and pray it works.

Hi all, I have a MK1 Bandit 600 with a Slabside Gsxr750 engine, I had it running alright on the bandit cdi and pickups but I tracked down a gsxr cdi so swapped back to the gsxr 750 twin pickups and cdi and I have no spark. The bandit cdi is the mk1 8 pin (a 6 pin and a 4 pin block). Any wiring wizards that can advise me on how to use the gsxr cdi with the mk1 bandit 600 loom. I've seen a diagram on a 1200 or newer but I can't even find a wiring diagram for the mk1 600. Any help would be much appreciated. I can plug in the pickups and the 4 pin connector on the loom to the one on the gsxr cdi but there is a 6 pin connector that I have nowhere to connect. I presume the 4 pin connector needs to be rewired from my research and the 6 pin isn't needed? Regards, Keith Ryan

Hi All, I know its been a while. Really struggled to get that shock in place but its on now, new braced swingar,. new cush rubbers, new rear sprocket, chain and sprocket carrier, renthal bars, new bar ends and grips, new tail light and undertray, fixed my tacho light and now everything is coming together. Left on my list is the GSXR Pickups and Cdi, new oil pressure switch, adjust clutch, bleed brakes, change front sprocket, tighten everything up and get it on a dyno. Now how the hell do I get the front sprocket off where the chain and back wheel have already been removed. I am really struggling with this, used WD40 and alot of pressure on it and still getting no where. If anyone has any suggestions that'd be great. Once everything is finally together I will put up some pictures. Regards, Keith Ryan

Just picked up a GSXR 1000 K7 rear shock and a slabby 750 cdi from Paddy Costello in Tullamore for €200 and popped into Eddie Rockets on the way home for a bit of grub. Monday will entail new cdi, shock, swingarm, chain and sprockets change, swap pickup coils and oil pressure switch. Then off to John O Grady for a Dyno tune up. I have sourced some slabby flatslides for €200. Would they be worth getting over the bandit carbs?
-
I might have sourced a 86 GSXR 750 CDI, Can anyone tell me if this will plug straight into the bandit loom once I swap back to the GSXR pickups or will I need a GSXR loom? Where is the oil switch located? Like Nigkat said you cant move the needles but I have added spacers according to the jet kit. I will look into this over the weekend.

Has it really been two months? Anyhow one set of carbs fully rebuilt later (not by me, beyond my skillset) and it runs. It starts and runs, havent driven it yet but I couldnt be happier right now after being without my main bike for this long. One small issue, I have my oil light on constantly, is this normal when using basically everything from the blandit 6 and just the slabby 750 engine? 1. Is there something I can do to get it working accurately instead of always on? 2. Obviously the CDI I am using lets the engine rev too high so wondering should I invest in one of those DYNA2000 custom ignitions or try track down some slabby electics? 3. The guy who sorted the carbs says its running like a pig. There is no real kick of power until you hit 4000RPM, normal? Jetting issues perhaps? Any suggestions welcomed? Regards, Keith Ryan

You sir, are a genius. Put a bit of diesel down each cylinder and left it sit for 24 hours then turned it back and forth by the nut behind the ignition pick up until it came free. Now I have carb issues, something which I despise. Not sure if I should head over banditforums.co.uk now or can anyone on here help me. When petcock is on bike wont start, when on prime petrol pours out of the over flow pipes. I am using Bandit Keihin CVK 32mm carbs on it that I ultrasonic cleaner myself with water and vinegar in a small ultrasonic bath. Had everything stripped down so maybe I have put something back together wrong.

Ok, I'm an idiot, turns out the clutch was slipping because the actuator pin I made was too long, engine looks to be seized, any recommendations on what to try before handing it over to a professional for a rebuild or strip down?

I have the bike filled with oil so didnt want to drain it to check it turning at the crank so I check from the sprocket. I pulled the plugs, put the bike in 6th it was stuck so i rocked it back and forwards and few times and it came free. Wheel turns in all the gears now by hand, the lower the gear the stiffer it is, however I did notice that pulling the clutch has no effect on how freely the wheel turns when in gear, is this odd? Started solenoid still clicks and starter doesnt budge, check all my wiring and cant find an issue so once again I am stumped, possibly the started motor stuck from being left idle? If so does anyone know will the bandit starter work on this engine?
