  1. Welded.

    10363361_1716126445273255_24635175299862

    You will receive it in 3 lasercut pieces, you only need to weld them where you want on the baseplate. Pretty handy if you use a swinger with an offset shock like a Vfr one.

     

  2. In the slingshot frame you can use all aftermarket filters, enough room. 

    If you got the carbs with an oval inlet, please don't go for K&N. Real headache to get them a proper fitment. Try the Ram air instead.

    If you run carbs with a round inlet like 38 or 40cv, I would recommend the Pipercross dual filters. No need to glue or anything. Perfect fitment and good performance.

  3. I don't think the question is as stupid like mentioned. 

    In Europe the France models were restricted back in the day. ONE of the restrictions on some models was actually a wire which was connected to the CDI. Bikes were restrticted on top HP but also on the first couple of gears. Don't know if the first gears got a lower top rpm or just another timing but you could delete (a part of) the restriction by disconnecting this wire which some of the people named ''wheeliewire'' or something.

  4. Sounds right to me. 

    Found some info on the interwebz, RS got bolts in the floater bowl to change the jets and are equipped with an adjustable accelerator pump. 

    You must have some slabby inlet rubbers laying around? I tried 36mm CV on the inlet rubbers on my slabby few months ago, don't fit and 36mm inlet rubbers... also don't match the vm29 ers.

  5. I don't know if it's cost effective.

    My 750 got 112whp now and a 1100 130-145whp. 1100 got a 5 speed, 750 a 6 speed gearbox etc. 750 got a better cilinderhead etc. Each engine got his benefits. Make a 7/11 is an easy job but still don't know the condition of the engine.

    The bike got 50000km on it, runs perfect but want to do an overhaul in the future and bore it.

    @Rene EFE told me that there was a bored 750 which made big numbers and rode like an idiot. So looking for people with experience with boring a 750.

  6. Planning to do some engine work on the 750 later this year or next year. So better start saving and slowly collecting parts.

    Who got experience with an 907cc kit? 

    What numbers are we looking at? stock carburators or flat slides?

    Any info is welcome.

  7. I have a mold for a complete EFE pro stock fairing.

    Idea, make a mould of your own stock fuel tank and make one out of glassfiber. Possible the cheapest and easiest way.

    You could try beasley composites, airtech or Catalyst in the usa.

  8. Bought this Slingshot last weekend from first Dutch owner who had it from 1994. Is is a Japanese (JDM) bike but I didn't knew the existence of this colour scheme (the red stripes and blue wheels aren't stock, the rest is).

    Because I'm keeping the bike to restore I love to hear some info about it. I already googled a few evenings in English and Japanese but couldn't find much about it. 

     

    Year: 1988

    Stickers: Hyper Endurancer (instead of Hypersport)

    Engine nr: -0000650 (is this an very early one? Or does Suzuki not count from 1 ?)

     

    What I already found or know:

    - I don't think it's gold or something ;) just like the bike to restore.

    - it is stock

    - theres a gsxr 400 1988 in the same colour scheme 

    - saw on another forum and heard from someone ''jubi Japan model, only 300 were made''

     

    Pic of the bike.

    Pic found on the interwebz of another one.

  9. I don't think that making the carburators cooler is the main goal of the heatshield. 

    I think that keeping the carburators a more consistant temperature, is the biggest benefit. When riding slow, theres less cooling so the temperature of the caburators will increase fast, when riding fast theres more cooling but the temperature of the carburators won't decrease very fast because they will be around hot air of the already hot engine. So a lot of variables in the af ratio.

    A two stroke is very sensitive on the inlet temperature. You can get some extra horses and easily kill some horses just by the inlet (environment) temperature. A four stroke is less sensitive but is does matter.

    So if you could make the variables in the af ratio smaller, you should reach less loss in horsepower over all (think when you race on the track, fast part, slow parts).

     

  10. We made these to get away with an 340mm shock on a 88 750. 

    On some 1100 frames you need to cut the original flaps off the chassis and drill holes to use it. But maybe this is an option.

    They will be delivered like on the picture so you need to weld it yourself, so you can fix it easily to the offset you need. Got a few sets left.

    (also can cut them out off aluminium  but you need a Ac/dc tig welding machine which not everybody have in his shed.)

  11. Don't know if I may post it in here.

    But I have 7 sets left of 10, lasercut out of stainless steel coming in this week. (same set as Warpspeed)

    The first testfit set out of wood (upper back one is missing in the picture)

    13019_1561219140763987_70012995383355528

    First set (normal steel), which is on my dragbike right now.

  12. Exactly!

    And don't forget the face of someone one a new ish gsxr 600 when you take him over :P  In my case I only take over a 600.

    Another onboard movie. Sorry for the forgotten tywrap haha

  13. Exactly :) 

    My thought/dreams are to upgrade the stock fork and fit a PFM brake kit including mag or forged alu aftermarket rims. I already decided that I never gonna sell this bike so I got some time to save :P
