Electrical gremlins can be a real pain, you just have to keep going till you crack it

I believe it's possible just fiddly

I'm in south west Sydney but bike was in singleton near newcastle

Kinda cool

Any links as to how that's done?

Thanks mate, I missed it being advertised before though which is odd but yeah pretty happy so far

Worth a pretty penny too

Yes good advice I think, depends how it goes but it does have quite a few mods already such as cams, head work, carbs, coils and ignition stuff so should go OK, I hoping it's pretty grumpy

Apparently in nsw putting an 1100 in can be picked up by rms if changing numbers on rego papers, I think i will see what's up with this engine and go from there, haven't even researched the 7/11's yet lol

I would leave them be and let painter play with them

Is methanol easy to get hold of though?

I need to keep the engine as its matching numbers, the bike came with all the parts needed expect spacer plate, however I'm kinda thinking it had 128hp when running and I'm guessing Max of 140 with big bore, seems like a lot of work for small gain. Then again I have $1400 coswortg pistons there doing nothing, where would I go to sell these parts?

apparently previous owner had planned to use short stroke block with spacer, dot head with the current flatslide setup, 1100 headers, was going to use cosworth pistons after honing long stroke rods to 19mm to suit, does that sound correct?

My L model

Just picked up this old girl, with heaps of spare parts inc dot head and cosworth pistons, Yoshi valves , short stroke block etc . Anyway it was ex race bike and now has low comp on 2 cylinders (according to old owner) it will run with choke on which seems strange if internally damaged, owner said he was riding it made a noise and now it's like this. Planing to pull head off and have a look but clearly head is not stock, he said possibly it had a bandit head is that possible? Anyway I'm in two minds as to weather to go big bore setup or repair as is. Before the mishap it made 128hp on the dyno, what would be expected power from big bore setup?
