You shoule be alright swapping to bandit switchgear, they have a lever on for the choke. You may even find the wires are the same colour!
Whereabout are you?

Supercharged looking at the headers!

I should think so. I've had a K8 gsxr shock, a gen2 busa shock and a Slingy shock in my old EFE and they interchanged easy enough

I might just swap the barrels and pistons over but we'll see when I get to it.

It will physically fit, I just dont know about valve/piston clearance, comp ration, squish area etc. If no-ones done it i'll have to suck it and see!

I've just been gifted a dothead 750 unit and I'm keeping the head and cams for another build.
Whilst i'm doing @Del30's teapot for him, would the 600 teapot head work on the 750 engine? Just thinking of a nice free capaicty uprgrade for him. Ive had a look through Frankensteins guide and couldnt see anything for this quite bizarre swap.

I’ve got a B12 in my slingshot with a micron system and everything clears the B12 sump

Have look top of the page.
That was over the head of the old stud though….

You shouldnt have to take the head off to get them out. See if you can weld a nut on there, it'll wind out once the weld cools down

Very cool. I like that

Slingy, Bandit or Powerscreen should drop straight on so long as you use the correct cam pulleys
-
If it were mine, and using the old rings, I’d leave the bites alone and the old rings will have worn to the bore.
new rings, 100% hone but if the compression was good I don’t think you’ll have to

Its a Micron System, so you're stuck with the 63mm inlet. Plenty of cans about though, I ended up with 4 or 5 when I put my slingshot together, ended up giving them away! Stick a wanted ad up. Someone will have one for you

Just had a quick Google,as you do and your right they are a longer wheelbase,57.8 vs 56.5 for a bandit, so not a huge difference,maybe visually the longer tailpiece makes the bandit arm seem shorter?
thats assuming the swingarm pivot is in the same place relative the the front spindle on both bikes
