If at first you don’t succeeded, fek it off and go to the pub got there In the end shipmate

you need to pull the front of the chain up tight before fitting the exhaust cam and lining that up first at least now you can see how many teeth you are out and just move the chain amount

Yes

No....................

27 years and counting, its hardly changed at all

28 and counting

Ahh Haaaa we are converting you all to bandits, one at a time

I think 1100 oil cooled are 775 mm and water cooled are 765mm, thats why they are good for 1200 Bnadit as they are 775mm as well

Haven’t been able to use clip ones for 20 odd years due to knackered knees

I briefly had the R1 front on a slingy project, fitted easy peasy..

these are fitted to my bandits, but the stem from a slingy is the same just a bit shorter Late model Hayabusa forks with radial brembos, brilliant stuff. I kept B12 wheel to retain speedo drive, but am in process of sorting lightweight wheels.. cant remember year, but R1 late model with 6 pots, brilliant front end, not difficult at all to fit, the brakes are really good any of these could be fitted to a slingy with not to much trouble

Your not trying hard enough, you can lift the rear with just about any brakes, as long as they work, dosent have to be anything fancy, i can do it on a bog standard 1200 bandit and im a fat bastard.. many years ago when i wasnt quite so fat..

is the sump full of petrol????

Don't make any sense that, shipmate??????? The output shaft bearing isn't a shell, if that is what you mean.. its a large roller, and what do you mean by cases being "proper"???

Fitting a new bearing is not quite as easy as a new seal!!!!!!! you have to split the crankcases
