Hindle, nothing for old GSXRs anymore. Motogpwerks, all custom fab. Might just have to slap an 1100 or 1200 in it so I can use one of my big 1100 exhausts.

The mid pipe I think is a little tweaked too. I’ll check and see if I can get Hindle or Motogpwerks in the states, a lot of the euro brands are either almost impossible to get here or stupidly expensive. I bought a full Akro system from the UK like 15 years ago and it was about $2000 at the time.

Been checking Eblag constantly here in the states and there aren't any old exhausts anymore. Currently have a yosh system that's been chopped down way too short and I'm getting sick of how loud it is. I unfortunately got rid of all my beat up old 750 exhausts a few years ago because I didn't think I'd ever need them again. Does anyone still make anything that will fit the 750s? If I can't find anything by this fall I'll just swap a 1200 into it and use a old Yosh 1100 full duplex I have(I'll probably do that eventually anyway.)

Excellent, thanks!

Color doesn’t match mine, but I can have it painted.

Found someone selling what looks almost like a new old stock cowl here in the states, want to make sure it fits before I start haggling with him over the price. I've got a 750n, oil cooled here unlike the rest of the world. Here are some photos of the cowl, they're not sure of the year.

I think bandit 600 or early SV650 brakes fit, but the stock rotors are too small for them. You'll need larger rotors, probably easier to throw a newer master cylinder on it and braided lines or look into a front end swap.

Took it out for a spin with a couple friends on slabbies last night. Speedo needle didn’t like doing a ton on the local shit roads. I’ve got a nicer 1100 cluster that I might swap the tach and mount up, or I’ll just live with it and ride it all summer. I’ve had so many of these damn needles snap over the years.

Oh, I just mean lower miles than the 28K that it shows on the odometer.

Picked it up today. Also looked over it more, besides the seats, it has some nice bling on it. Someone put some money into this back in the day, allegedly has a newer engine as well, but who knows. Lowers and mids are rashed a little on one side, the hunt for full fairings begins.

Anyone know if the early W front fenders were compatible? Only fenders I'm finding on Eblag are missing tabs and they want stupid money for them. Never mind, looked up the part number and saw that it's the same from 90-95. Got a decent W one ordered up for a fair price.

Thanks, time to get a black front fender. I do prefer the wheels purple over black, almost as nice as the white wheels.

Saw this posted online while sitting at a bar getting drunk last night with a friend. Started emailing, then texting, and went and checked it out today. It’s missing the uppers, has the mids and lowers, would love to restore it to full fairings if I could ever find an upper. Has a yosh top triple and one case cover. Will be getting a bandit engine soon enough, but fuck I could not pass up on those beautiful purple wheels. Does anyone remember what color the front fender was? I need to replace it and the front tire immediately.

Thanks, I'll try and at least get the tank and seat lock paired.

Got a link for the keyless ignition? It has an 05 GSXR1K front end with an LSL top triple, so the steering lock never worked anyway.

After recovering my 7/11, the ignition and gas cap locks are trash. I've been going through my spares but I'm not finding any sets that have all three locks matching. What newer Suzukis use the same ignition and gas cap mounts? From what I've seen on Eblag, it looks like Ws, maybe SRADs, GS500s through the early 00s? Don't want to order a full set and find out the gas cap doesn't fit. I'm also guessing those cheap chinese knockoff ignitions are all garbage.

Check the wiring diagram and see if it’s the coil that has a wire running from the coil to the tach. If so, check that wire. Went through a second set of coils and buying another CDI before finding that wire grounding out in the connector to an aftermarket gauge. Everything tested fine, annoying as hell.

Had this happen with a teakettle 750, if the lead that goes to the tach is grounding out, the coil that it’s hooked to won’t fire. Everything will test fine, but you’re not gonna get spark. Also try grabbing one of the old coils and a plug and check both leads to the coils with that. Easier than trying to plug and unplug the coils when they’re bolted to the frame.

Well, looks like they left the switch gear alone and only hacked up the harness. Need to dig through my spares and see what I have. Any suggestions on where to get a new lock set? Need ignition, tank, and seat. Thought about going m-unit and then looked at their prices. Too much damn money for what’s gonna be a daily again when it’s done.

Not seeing any new harnesses available for it, but I have a box of used harnesses. I've already started ripping that shit off the bike, too much trouble to even try and figure out how it was supposed to work.

Exactly that. And it was recovered last May in the middle of the covid shutdown and I doubt the insurance company gave a damn about letting anyone know about recovered vehicles. I'd even specifically asked to be able to buy the bike back if it was recovered.

Seller got it from the tow yard that had gotten it from the insurance company after it was recovered. I'd already been paid out on it, showed the seller I was the original owner and he sold it to me for about what he had into it. $500.

So my 7/11 got stolen back in August of 2019, couple nights ago a friend saw it for sale on facebook market place, and today I started going through all the damage they did to it so I can rebuild it. Going to probably start a proper build thread once I get parts ordered, and maybe have a better idea of what direction I want to go with it this time.

Well fuck, looks like it’s something in the wiring to the acewell gauge we used. Unplug it and it fires up just fine.

Ok, this is driving us crazy. Slabbie 750 with an 03 teakettle 750 engine and harness. It’ll get derestricted later. It was running before, now we only get spark from one coil. Continuity tests good for the wires, swapped in a new ecu tonight and still the same thing. Multiple coils, and the side with the white single wire works fine, the side with the black/yellow signal wire has no spark. Sorry that it’s a teakettle and nothing cool, but we’re trying to finish this to get my friend off his old shitty Yamaha, so it’s for a good cause.
