    All the lads & lasses who've went bigger than std. on the rear of 750 Slabbie's. I'd like to know the pro's & cons for fitting a 5.5" wheel over a 4.5", and vice versa. 

    I would echo the considerations brought forward by MeanBean and Canamant re: handling. If you do decide to go to a bigger tire profile, handling characteristics will change. This can also depend to a certain extend on the tire brand you select.  I'm partial to the 180/55 feel (track and street). Then again I don't run a high hp turbo monster as others on here do.

    Hmmm! - maybe if you've got a set from a watercooled engine the spacing is wrong, but all the air and oil cooled Suzuki's and Kawa's of the period have the same inlet spacing 77 - 93 - 77. 'Onda's have an oddball spacing!

    Hey Gixer1460, thanks for clarifying, I didn't mean to muddy the waters. Seems I may have another RS34 rack than the GS ones. For reference here is a mikuni document with all the carb spacing for their RS series from 34 - 40. RS Series Radial Flat Slide Carburetors

  3. Wouldn't it be cheaper to get them ultrasonically cleaned and maybe rebuild them? Don't your vm29ss have a pull lever/knob to activate the choke/cold start circuit?

    A spare set if carbs is never a bad thing but fixing what you have is also a reasonably sensible option as well. As for fitting the RS34, the carbs spacing is different (but could work if you intend on having them spaced for your application). I have a set of both the vm29ss and RS34 and the throttle bodies/spigots do not line up.

  4. Motogadget gear is top notch and relatively bulletproof, at least the M-Units are with their solid state fuses. Gauges and buttons are more sensitive to botched wiring or current overloads but still very high quality gear. I personally wouldn't think twice, if mortgaging your house for electronics is an option...

  5. @Jacknice GS750. Great looking package there and a kick start model too!  :tu

    I found the front fairing / triple tree mount to be an interesting solution.  What is your current jetting (mains and pilots) on the VM26 carbs with those velocity stacks?  (those stacks look very nice BTW)

  6. That liteteck link from @Reddragon is pretty nifty. First time I see that one.

    Here is a matrix I posted a short while ago in the water cooled section. Some info I came across when doing my SV front end upgrade. Not my original content, comes from the TLZone. Might be useful to a few here...

    Here are the wheel & caliper fitment guides I referenced often on SVRider....
