    So both you guys just have a tube that runs up near the top of the tank and is only supported on the base?

    Yes, I have it like that.

    You can weld on the tank without fucking up the paint, fill it completely with water, but be care full.

    Take a 5mm thick flat bar and weld that to the tank, this can be tricky because off the thin wall thickness of the tank.

  2. Faulty big end bearing knocks quite loud..

    You don't need a stethoscope, a flat screwdriver will do, you probably can listen a little bit more detailed with that.

    I'm afraid it's going to cost you a new set off gaskets to find out what's wrong with it.

  3. I don't have a Bandit, but a GS1000, I needed to move the fuel tap because of different carbies, I built the return on the spot for fuel tap.

    Steel strip en welded a tube on 1 cm from the top off the tank.

     

    Fill tank with water, and the paint will be right during welding.

  4. You're talking about a motor, and about Suzuki engine parts, it must be a hybrid!

    Motors run on electricity / oil / air, when it runs on fuel it's an engine.

     

     

  5. I've read that somewhere too, but are they just as strong as aftermarket ones?

    I also have a smaller rear wheel, I've got a rear fork off a Bandit 1200 in it, so a smaller rear sprocket is not an option, I also made a hydraulic clutch on it, so a bigger front sprocket is also a bit of an issue..

     

     

    If I look on the internet, you find billet clutch baskets on the stock gear, straight cut gears on almost stock engines, it's all over the show!

    But if I spend some money, then all the weak links aren't as weak anymore.

  6. It's a GS1000 with a GSX1100 clutch..

     

    I'm not aiming for 200+ HP, but you never know where you end up.

    Thanks, Straight cut gears are sold for 425 USD, so probably something to spend some $$$ on.

  7. Gents,

     

    Not sure if I ask my question here or in Forced induction..

     

    I've built a turbocharger on my GS1000, and what I was afraid of happened, engine destroyed, conrod snapped.

    Now I'm going to put stronger rods in, but I'm still not sure about the clutch, I had a lock up on it, I didn't had any problems with it.

     

    So, how much HP and/or Nm can a stock GSX1100 clutch handle?

     

    Thanks.

    My experience is that kevlar frictions are more prone to slippage, and I have had clutch shudder with carbons in a race application. Stockers are grippier, and have a predictable lockup point.

    Ah, ok. 

     

    Thanks!

  9. Oh, if you do a top end oiler, make sure you connect it to the feed line in the head, I've seen photo's on the www from someone who bolted it on the return, and he didn't even realized that he did do it wrong.

  10. No, measure diameter of hole trough cylinder, calculate surface area (square mm), do the same with the stud, retract one from another.

    Calculate surface area thicker stud, retract one from another.

    Now you calculate what size you need to drill the hole, I had to drill mine 1mm larger. Oh, make sure you got enough material left before you start drilling.

    Drill cylinder and cylinder head. Not hard when you have a drill press
