    Changed the oil and filter on my 88j yesterday ,took it for a spin this afternoon and i have an oil leak, checked the sump plug and filter for tightness and both OK, then noticed that oil was weeping from the left hand ( looking from front of bike)  bottom oil cooler pipe union where it bolts onto engine, like a twat i must have damaged it when i took off the old filter ,i struggled to get it off so foolishly resorted to hammering a screwdriver through it to get it started ,must have gone straight through the other side and pierced the pipe.

    Is it a straightforward like for like replacement when i get hold of a spare ?...just a matter of draining the oil and unbolting the pipe at engine end and top of oil cooler?...any tips welcome.

    Is this the curved type cooler 

    If so might beable to help 

  2. So acquiring parts together ready to start to build the bike and I've noticed that undertray is really poor and with the rest of the bike going to be well sorted as such and fibreman fairings how has everyone got round the old undertray since Jason doesnt make them for slabbys but does for slingshot 

    Cheers 

    Also picked up a 750 slabby that needs little work and this doesnt have one at all

  3. Hes asking for 1500 but think it could be a little too much 

    But I've not really seen many 1100 projects up for sale so hard to price 

    I've a few projects on at minute but find it hard not buying slabbys 

    Just bought a 750 that I don't need but had to buy it 

    So now got 1 slingshot 1100k 1 slabby 1100 and a slabby 750 projects 

     

  4. The setup I was considering is off a l2 gsxr 750 as the front will be lower due to running Aprillia front end 

    I thibkbthis could work and also not using a potentially 15 year old shock 

    What you reckon 

  5. The headers on this bike are a devil system and someone welded a 3 bolt flange to end for the yoshi can 

    Not sure if to sell or use them 

    Anyone got feedback how the headers perform in comparison to say a scorpion system or akrapovic that I have in the garage also 

    I need 2 systems for 2 bikes I'm building so wanting to keep the better of the 2 for performance wise 

    Thanks

  6. That looks a proper build 

    Originally was going to build it up fairly standard with some L forks but as always can't help bud to build something a little bit more special 

    Might get some measurements and trial for the parts to my frame 

    Did you have to swap stem out for the front end like you have to on most conversions 

    Thanks
