o ring on the starter motor may have perrished, letting oil into the starter motor mounting and it will then run out as youve shown.

It's going to be a sidecar tug for me and my granddaughter, and I think the slightly narrower gears in a 6 speed box might get a bit hammered by the added heft!

That's great, keep me informed please, no rush but when you're ready! How much will you be looking for?

Will also fit the gs1000 too

I'm there again with the single cylinder guys of the thumper club, but I'll pop over and see you all over the weekend.

I've just acquired a power screen 1100 with a whine on 4th gear. What other gearboxes will drop in? Bandit? I'm in no great rush to rip the motor out but what other oilcooled box will fit in the event I have to get in there?

also worth mentioning that the oil pressure switch on these is a pretty agricultural device comprising a spring and a flat disk of metal. its particularly befuddled by modern oil. back in the 80's oil was mineral based gloopy and thick, modern stuff is a fabulously hi tec wonder of science, but its pissy thin watery stuff, so if youre running synthetic oil, before you spend any more money, put some oldskool oil in your oldskool motor.

russbusa had his kat guilliari seat restyled and recovered to match the original kat seat. nobody makes the bases as an aftermarket part yet.

check your charging voltage before anything else. without a multimeter to confiem voltages youre just pissing into the wind. theyre a tenner, invest in one. youll never run an old suzuki without one. and of course it goes without question, check your earths!.

i think lucky7 sells one that bolts on in place of the sprocket cover.

Try weights in the bar ends to damp out the vibes,

ie an 1100w motor in the shed somewhere.

you can buy cheap chinese adjustable electronic flasher relays on Eblag for under a tenner, theyve an adjusting screw so you can set your own flash speed. leave the idiot lights if they work.

gsx1100g motor? effectively its a shaft drive gsxr motor.

ahh, sorry, i just assumed gsx, my bad, carry on, nothing to see here..........
