Fantastic build, massive credit to you. -
Carbon wheels nice.
-
You got titanium turbo on there or something.
-
You can see quite lot parts lighter on slabbies but that's quite significant.
-
Thats pretty dam good really.
-
Got my o rings ordered cheers for group heads up. Could be comedy comment there too.
-
Why would you ever want to even consider doing that.

As Ian said I would never run that, also turbo motor so use stock crank. Slightly different but mate had quacker seize on him big end picked up. He had crank metal sprayed, he's not fast rider at all but I still pulled a face. Not something I'd do. Maybe at work on a big machine thats very slow rpm perhaps. Yep it lasted about 2 days.

Slightly off topic but more complete bike weight, i remember back in the day weighing my pretty stock 1100m apart from light exhaust with 1/3 tank fuel approx and it weighing 245kg. Same bike in Evo form weighs 215kg, but that was probably half tank fuel and with the extra cooler and oil adding bit more weight but still thought it would have been less, that was in road mode too thou. They big heavy beasties.

Good tip thou thank you I need 12 myself

36 how many engines you building or planning on blowing up and thats coming from me lol
-
Did not look very hard then?

If you look in vault section under UK Lee clutch section you can see simple tool he used of mine that you can make cheaply and easily You got rattle gun so it be easy for you. Clutch easy job with tools, the pads can rip off easy, bodges are vert short lived, do it properly not like its your daily driver. Thats if Ian advice of gentle persuasion does not work.

The point of the 1100 is it torque monster the 750 is rev monster, hence huge difference in red line, hence gearbox has been built to suit. I've seen so many broken 11 gearboxes and snapped dogs off gears myself which was scary so really can't understand why u put weaker gearbox in 11, but peeps do use them on track I personally wouldn't but I understand that can restrict you on certain tracks, depends if racing seriously or just playing too. Decide where you want your power, choose ya engine and tune and cam to suit.

What i see in mates cars is they made chocolate. Look good then melt.

Problem with gsxr gearboxes are shift points in different places and different tension in every dam gear. I personally think they horrid gearbox and very weak. A stronger ident spring helps even out tension but does not alter shift points. Blending drum helps a little. I like hm strain quickshifter job, this is not micro switch design but saying that thinking of using ignitech to try myself on turbo build and noting Greg's results. Its a case setting it to suit your bike and what feels good for you.

Totally agree use new bolts, costs certainly worth it, especially on unknown head. On heads i know, i have never snapped a bolt, but have undoing bolts on head never seen before I have. 9 ftlbs is plenty torque. Same as the 6mm crankcase bolts old ones can fail too and that proper miserable when you just glued the two halves together. To drill bolts out ya cam caps, head off put in pedestal drill.

What makes that one Clive.
-
Do have to agree there.
-
Steam powered now then Clive real old skool.
-
Thank you Clive.
-
Can someone tell me length of standard 1200 bandit wrist pin please. Checked archives cant see anything. Thanks Jonny

Clive surprised you not changed to cable far nicer then hydraulic. So old school not it good way. You will have all adjustability you want then. Probably not bling enough for you thou
