That's amusing - flowing more oil to parts that are not relieved to cope will increase oil pressure in the galleries - it won't make diddly squat difference to actual bearing oil pressure! If you are opening up bearing running clearances then i'd agree that increased flow would be beneficial to get back to std. running pressures but conversely loose clearances are not really to be advised - race or not. So it is 'solving' a problem that doesn't exist. I'm sure Suzuki never modified their oil systems in the factory racebikes other than additional cooling.......that says a lot IMO!
Why would you need 120psi oil pressure at idle - there is little or no load on anything! Saying that he's never spun a rod bearing isn't really convincing - i've never spun one either in any of my stock oil pumped / pressured engines, one of which runs 2 bar boost and 370hp!

Most GSXR / oiler engines make excess pressure and have to bleed it off back to sump.....so why increase it? They usually only break when something mechanical goes wrong and it ain't normally the delivery side!

Why a 'longer' arm? Thats gonna lift the clutch less - make it grabby?

Is slabby 750 helical clutch gear, 1100f crank is helical drive gear
Sods law being what it is and if the oilers are anything like the aircooled motors, the primary gear ratios are different between 750 and 1100. So whatever you choose you'd need the matching basket!

As said above - Robinsons Foundary - most of the stuff is here?..... http://www.robinsonsfoundry.co.uk/content/pages/shop/parts/Suzuki/GSX/GSX1100F/FJ-FR 1988-1994/gsx1100ftrans.htm

Lots been written about this over previous two forums.......personally I wouldn't!
6 gears in the same space as 5 physically means they are thinner and therefore will carry greater load per tooth power being equal between 750 and 1100
But the torque of the 1100 means it doesn't NEED 6 gears. So, add greater twisting force / torque on gears that are physically smaller and they are likely to fail. Some say they
are fine but could you trust something that is now getting on for 35+ years old? 2nd gears in Suzi boxes are notorious for wearing the dogs - starts with a whine then
jumps out ...... as its coupled with 5th you might have 4 gears to replace!

Clive - your brave with that 'ickle little cooler! At least you can throw my old motor at it and the pipes will still fit and throw alcohol at it - would be a hoot! LOL
I'm like the look though.

This is the graph from my Kawazuki - 1186, 36mm CV's, pods and a 4-2-1 one off pipe = 144hp on three different dyno's

Holy crap! What motor and set up is that? Also has the gearbox shat itself yet?
lol
1460 Gixer M fully 'built' engine with turbo, intercooler and EFI and no the gearbox is fine thank you very much!

I'd be interested to see the results of turbo oil boiler if anyone would like to chip in
I suppose my 369hp is enough - measured on Big CC dyno @ HP Shootout so no dyno printout!

Dimensions Harris Magnum 4
in Trick Frames

Don't want to sound like an angry lawyer but whilst building your own frame is to be admired (providing your engineering, materials and welding are top notch) but 'dimensionally ripping off' a commercially produced item technically infringes makers copyright. The whole point of a self produced frame is its your creation and doesn't rely on critical dimensions from someone elses! These things are created in a jig - you place the engine, configure where the headstock needs to be with proposed forks and wheel and where swingarm pivot needs to be using whatever s/arm and wheel - then glue it all together with whatever collection of tubes you choose. Just saying is all!
