Thanks mate.

Before you go looking for welder, take some time and have look in the projects section and do a bit of research on your plan of attack A welder is not a designer, although a good welder will tell you if your design is strong enough to its job. Form follows function.

Hi Swirl. Can you find out if he used the stock float height? Just wondering if the fuel pump pressure might mean tweaking the floats to suit? Thanks.

That's all they'll be opinions. I bought a fightered slingshot once and had a subby collapse on the back wheel. Luckly I had slowed down for a speed bump when it happened and managed the shift my weight to my feet before I stopped. So naturally I'm suspicious of projects/welding I don't know history to. Looks to me like 2 lengths of threaded rod fortified with an outer sleeve with the subframe connecting at the weak points. It's your arse on the line literally. I personally don't like it's design so it would be an easy option for me to get plugging in the grinder. If you are worrying about the subby now, how are you going to enjoy the ride if that's at the back of your mind?

A mate of mine bought a GSX1100G project. Missing a few bits, carbs being one of them. I was going to put a set from a slingshot 1127K. As the G uses a fuel pump I can imagine the carbs float heights won't be the same as suction feed 1127K. Anyone have any info on the carb specs, or info in general on the GSX1100G? Info seems to be thin on the ground when I googled. Thanks in advance.

Fair play! Great to see an oldskooler kicking arse on the strip (especially when it's got the aerodynamics of a caravan!).

Somebody's flush!

Now I have you. I remember that kat. It was in a katana edition of Streetfighters mag. February 2002 issue 96 to be exact .

I know you said gsxr and not air cooled but the mind can play tricks. Is that what you were looking for?

Welcome in. Best of both worlds, slabby and slingy. Nice examples. You'll fit right in.

Try your local B&Q or whatever d.i.y./hardware store is in your area. "Tubular box spanners" is what they're called and can be got in a set with all the sizes you'll ever need to remove a spark plug. Whole set should cost you less than a tenner.

The word "neighbours" does get mentioned on here quite a bit. I've seen plenty of threads about turbo and custom exhaust projects mentioning many various descriptions of pissed off "neighbours".

I know as doesn't apply in this case, but Akrapovic bandit systems fit slingshots but Akrapovic slingshot systems won't fit bandits. I learned the hard way.

Is that a hairline crack I see?

Have a look at this similar thread. http://old-skool-suzuki.proboards.com/thread/5480/oil-site-window

Was it @Gammaboy's project? Halfway down first page.

Yes

I know it could've been added after but 11K/L carbs don't have an extended idle screw cable. The carb tops look tall (might be wrong, tiny photo), like what's on b12 and water cooled 750/11's. You can narrow down the search by checking the if the carbs are designed for single cable or dual push pull cables. Also measure the internal bore, (36, 38mm?) and the spacing. My guess (and just a guess) would be water cooled 750 (pre SRAD).

@Danm54 was making them. But they were for slingshot frames to fit hayabusa/k series swingarms.

Cheap astra. Might want to re-evaluate the postage though.

Still going to need to get the degree wheel, positive stop, dial gauge and brackets etc. I can get the wheels slotted handy enough. It's optimising them that's the problem. It was cheaper to swap cams back (at the mo) till I can get a degree kit together.

Look a bit like pistons for operating the accelerator pump circuit. Just a guess. Whip one of the bowls off and see is there a matching hole for one of them.

Has it got standard cams? Were the valve clearances done recently? Inlet leaks (from valves not closing fully) through timing set wrong or cam overlap causing decompression at low revs(?) Just throwing ideas out there. Very easy to overlook as we all tend to go straight at the carbs. My blandit 12 would SOMETIMES die in a shot (like hitting kill switch) at low revs or coming to a stop, a pisser in heavy traffic. I tried 2 sets of ultrasoniced carbs and same with the coils. Same symptoms, stop dead every now and then so ruled out carbs and spark. I had a gsxr11K inlet cam in the motor that was causing a bit of cam overlap. You could feel slight blow back from the back of the airbox. Reckon the inlet needed dialing in. (just unlucky in my case with my engines unique tolerances, next guys motor might be a different story) Cheapest option (I'm skint) was to put back in the b12 cam. Done 1500 miles now. Hasn't died once. Still going to put a lumpy cam back in but optimise the timing when I can afford a dial in kit.

Don't think it'll be long enough. Standard gsxr 750 chain is 108 links, and 1100 118 links (both 530 chains). Don't forget the 11 swingarm is longer as well as having a larger sprocket.
