    No - it wouldn't work as the 1400 ECU needs the 1400 rotor which if memory serves me right, is on the starter clutch / alternator rotor like Busa's etc? To use a GSXR oil cooled ignition it has to be complete system - CDI, rotor and pick-ups and conversely EFI conversion needs the whole install so the ECU understands the signals its getting or not getting! EFI conversions are better served with aftermarket ECU's for flexibility in component selection.

    Not strictly true as you can go fuel only with the stock CDI or conversely Ignition only if you want to be able to program your advance curve

    So that would mean you could do a basic EFI conversion on a GSXR or GSF using the 1400 ECU etc

    You would need to find somewhere for a cam sensor and another way to trim the fuelling back a hell of a lot. Cheaper and easier going aftermarket ECU as per Arttu's thread. 1250 bandit stuff however....

    BUT, the phone rang and when i came back i put the bike away without turning the Pingel off!

    couple of hours later Mrs fatbloke says " whats that smell" instantly I knew. ran out to gargae and about 20 quids worth of super duper unleaded is on the gargae floor..:(

    Bollox, so carbs off and clean them out again to seal the float valves and empty the engine of gas.. Bloody motor bikesO.o

    Well it isn't a race bike, it was built for the road and it is the only cooling. Mind you it does have a billet bespoke big block with extensive finnage so that helps!

    I take it the alternator is alright with the extra current draw of the fan along with the other EFI gubbins?

  5. Looks like we're pulling out of this one folks.

    Struggling to get enough people to commit to coming.

    Crying shame but thoughly understandable given the circumstances over the past 18 months and the uncertainty surrounding it. 

     

    We may have a second bite of the cherry in April for a second Manchester Show at Bowlers, I'll keep everyone informed as and when.

  6. Its worth speaking to @Funkymonkracingabout one of his billet knockles/linkage. That'll raise the arse end up without affecting the workings and ratios of the shock too much. A very worthwhile addition. He made a facetube video very recently that has been posted on here
