With no rods and pistons - two fingers easy! What does a 1100 crank achieve in a 750 apart from a really long stroke combination - not one i've heard of before?

Shed loads of nitrous or 30+ lbs of turbo boost will be a good start LOL!

IMO - yes DJ size and waaaay too big for a near enough std engine - I'd try 126 - 130 mains. Emulsions / needles could be worn which also won't help and promotes rich condition. If they are DJ - they have a lifetime warranty & free replacement!

I'd say you've a wiring issue to sort out as having a 'seemingly' permanent live electrical system isn't cool and quite dangerous! And as with most 'old bikes', the carbs need stripping and cleaning thoroughly - not a bit of carb / brake cleaner - if you have or know someone with an ultrasonic cleaner, use it for a few cycles with whatever strong solvent / cleaner you can find.

Good grief - could be the only one worldwide that will be stock !

So cut the bloody heat shrink tube off - just slit down its length and it comes off - DOH!

If its bonded in, why do you want to remove it? If you want to use different leads then you'll be buying coils as well!

You seem to want to run before you can walk! We like ambition but get the basics down and working first - tearing down and building up stuff and most electrical things can be done in a shed / garage . . . . . . . boring cylinders / machine work (good quality) cannot unless you are a machinist with a fully equipped workshop !

If you do have big fat blue sparks then although timing may be incorrect, you can pretty much rule out electrics (not deffo though) and carbs are a likely candidate for being the problem. Swapping cylinders is the weirdest bit !

Coils are pretty universal. With suzuki's the orange/white is common to both and is ignition power. The other odd colours go to 1/4 and 2/3 coils - i'd cut the plugs off and re-terminate with either new plugs or insulated spade connectors. The spark leads look like they may be covered in heatshrink ? But strong possibility they will be bonded into the coil so not removable!

Did you use 'general O rings' or the specific Suzuki ones - the OEM ones tend to be different sizes to suit the application.

Eh? Alex Jones is the Doris on the 'One Show'......... mind you I wouldn't mind seeing her in a set of leathers and I might answer her questions

So we have another newbie (who also hasn't introduced himself) offering advice to someone who also hasn't introduced themselves! Is this some sort of newbie challenge to the 'way of things' as its happening with monotonous regularity just recently! BTW - we like to help, we just like to know who we are helping and there is also a search function but I suppose that requires reading up and not just being told the answer!

Stating 'feedback' is a bit non descriptive ie. WTF does it mean? Seeing as it was most likely tested on a roller brake tester the rotational speed would be so slow as to hardly feel anything - if the tester did, then I wouldn't want to rely on them! But if virtually new, why are they warped? Maybe they aren't seated correctly on the hub?

Hmmmm - I'd name and shame a 'professional' that supplied that sort of service! It really is common sense that if carbs need an ultrasonic bath clean that jets and needles need inspecting and replacing especially float valves as leaking ones can wreck an engine!

Doesn't that look better all round ! Nice work.

Me no think he gonna be back! He shud have RTFM first!

They are usually in the top case next to the stud they pass oil up - we used to tap them out and fit a grub screw to block off. Never knew the 750 EF's had external lines to the head - obviously a precursor to the head cooling set-up as on GSXR's! The GSX750 pump should be good for pressure - engine has shell bearings - but how much to restrict to the top end ? I think i'd rather flow too much than not enough - if it helps LOL!

How do you balance the carbs then - they all have a vacuum port. Any of which could be used for the tap vac!

And it is always useful to obtain and RTFM!

How did you conclude that? There is a vacuum fuel tap and he swapped the vac. hose from one carb to another - nothing to do with breathers !

I admire your enthusiasm and access to tools to create the stuff we desire but please take a step back and first learn how these assemblies work and go together, because until you know that - £450 will seem cheap in comparison (costed against time and scrapped parts) I built a whole CNC mini mill to create some parts with big ideas of what it could do in the future - so far it's only created 4 pieces, so cost per piece is about £600 whereas a machine shop could have done all 4 for about £150 !

If its in gear - you should still be able to turn the motor over. An it takes some sort of ape to muller the ign rotor hex - please don't try and turn it over using the 6mm cap screw!

Will it go forward anymore? My GSXR into a Zed frame had the lower bolt holes vertically aligned and probably still could have moved 2" forward.

Why does it matter - oil comes out, goes through cooler and goes back to engine - either side will have same effect!
