  1. I have inazuma gauges in -82 GSX 1100 E

    Just fuel gauge is not working, I guess there is difference in resistances of level sensors between models.

    Connecting gauges was quite straight forward job no big issues.

    Cant´t be 100% sure that one you looked will work but my guess is that it works

    This might be helpful http://gsarchive.bwringer.com/storagecliff/images/r-r_replacement.pdf

    These guys has OEM replicas and a "race alternator" which produces 25A. Pricey... https://www.electrexworld.co.uk/acatalog/Race_Alternator_Systems.html

     

     

    300W Race alternator!

    It is good to have options, perhaps there are some things to update before that. 

    Link to that other site was also good.

    -Shindengen SH775. Used at least on some Polaris ATVs. I think there are also other suitable Shindengen models used on various vehicles but don't remember exact details right now. Do your own googling ;)

    -Compu-Fire 55402. Aftermarket option. https://compufire.com/compu-fire-55402-voltage-regulator-for-compu-fire-3phase-systems.html

    -Possibly some of these: http://cycleelectricinc.com/RECTIFIER.html

    Thanks arttu

    Yep, on GSX maximum power saving would be around 200W (1/4 hp). In practice it would be even less. So difference in available power won't be very noticeable :)

    But it will make bigger difference on stator temperature and also loading on wiring and connectors. Some guys on that other forum claim that they can see difference in oil temps as well but I highly doubt that...

    I think this could be easy modification to improve reliability of charging system, heat is not good in wiring or connectors. 

    Do you series regulator model  which works in gsx?

    The 1100 engines all have a oil way with a chrome 17mm but in the end above the ATU cover, the 750 engines don't ;) easy way to tell without eng numbers :)

    Something new each day! Again  one thing to check in these old Suzuki's

  6. It is 750cc engine and I think someone painted it black. I'm not expert, but at least what I have seen only later ones were originally black. Also Chrome caps on cylinder head look like early gsx.

    A shunt regulator is "traditional" regulator type on bikes with permanent magnet generators. For example stock regulators on GS/GSX. It regulates voltage by loading the generator, conducting current to the ground if voltage tries go over the limit. Downside of this solution is that the generator runs at full load all the time which heats up the stator.

    A series regulator is later type and it works by conducting just enough current from the generator to the system to keep voltage at desired level. So then the generator needs to produce only the current that the electrical system needs at any moment.

    So whit series regulator there would be less engine power lost to charging system?

    Whit small gsx generator loss is not huge, but still there would be more usable power to move bike whit modern regulator :) If I understand correctly...

  8. I measured my inazuma wheel and gsx e forks I wouldn't  try. Less work to change complete front end.

    It would be thinght between fork tube and brake disk there is about 5mm gap, where build adapter for brake caliber. Didn't  check axle diameter for bearings. 

    And mayby next commenter tells that it's easy thigh..

  9. Installing wide rear wheel to gsx 1100 Iooks like lot of fun, so that's also my plan.

    I have b12 swingarm, twin shock attachments,  offset sprocket, and rear brake just looking for a wheel.

    Is B12 only easy option or are other 5,5" wide rear wheels from Suzuki's actually same as B12

  10. Ok I see.. What would be point in changing parts whitch will be replaced soon anyway... Good bike for modifications all parts in it and still not all original painat etc.

    That 55mph linght was new for me.
