Shouldve plonked yourself down and tucked into the biscuits!

We'll have to find whatever French puiblication you interviewed for too!

Trophy got commandeered sorry boys. I’m sure he’ll look after it Brilliant turnout for OSS and the show was busier than I’d seen in a few years. Thank you to everyone who brought a bike (or two) and supported the stand. See you at the next one!

Carb blowthru's only need to be 1 or 2 psi over the boost pressure. The couple I've worked on have only been set at 1-2 psi on those malpassi regulators

No

Keep an eye on the website, they only usually release the list a few days before the show https://www.staffordclassicbikeshows.com/exhibitor-list-october/

Pretty much.

Speak to @Gsxrsam

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1053286/Suzuki-2005-Gsf1200.html?page=110#manual I know thats B12 but the procedure is the same. Dont be tempted to use a pry bar to split cases. Once ALL the fixings are out they'll split easy enough. Just be mega careful not to drop the crank shells or get any grit/shite on them. You want to be operating theater clean, dont be tempted to wipe the shells either, leave them be. As CC said, easier to remove the clutch assy and the front sprocket while the engines in situ but a dugga dugga should still get them off. make sure youve got JIS screwdrivers to get the screws on the bearing retaining plates out inside the clutch housing, Impact would be better. Dont lose the little twagger that the oil pump drive gear sits on either if you go that far. Take loads of photos as youre doing it so you dont get the selector forks the wrong way around when it goes back together. Brake cleaner aerosols are your friend So is blue roll not kitchen towel as it leaves lint everywhere take your time Pick the phone up if you get stuck

Front end should go in right enough, you'll want a stepped top yoke though. Back end should be fairly straightforward too tbh, is it an overbraced arm?

Feel a discussion is needed about your hoard of dry clutches!

RTFR. This is an information sharing site that everyone is expected to contribute to not 'jump in, take information and leave'. Feel free to leave if you dont like it. Anyway off topic. @Scuzz300Swingarm will go in but you'll need custom top hats and you'll have to do some leg work on the linkage but it has been done. Theres a few slabbies in the projects section with different arms fitted. Good luck

Enysford Garage near Sevenoaks is owned by an oil cooled gsxr nut. I’m sure he’d be able to help you out

I'll make sure Pauls got the tea on and the bed made

Paul and I will be there mid afternoon Friday setting up, you can get onto the site until about 10pm I think but they close the hall at 7 Friday night so if you arrive after that just keep the bike with us until the morning

3 Important points of reference for those attending

Bring cake!

Theres dozens of threads in the projects section with alternate head coolers. @fatblokeonbandithas done a couple @Dezzahas a nice set up on his to name but two! Have a search about

@fatblokeonbanditto the recurring gasket enquiry please

It’s the shipping to the Emerald Isle that would kill it

There was a list of M6 Cap head bolt sizes for the oil cooled engine covers somewhere here but I cant find the furker. Anyone got the into to hand?

cmsnl sell them mate. Have you got the colour matrix to know what colour shells youre ordering?

Swap the stem

Need a definate list for this so expect PM's inbound this week! @Katana @Svsam @Wee Man @Rossco(Iceman Josros) @clivegto @Simbec1863 @SiBag @busa ash Anymore takers?
