  1. Cheers. Yeah, hopefully the 36 will give me a hell of a lot more clearance. 

    Yeah, I preferred the look of the shorter tail on it. Just need to finish modifying the seat base to suit now. 

  2. Thanks for that. Just about clears the cam cover with the carbs off. Its close, but only needs a little spacing. So I'll be on the lookout for some smaller carbs then. Mine are decent condition, so should be able to sell them to fund another set. Cheers. Hopefully that will cure the issue and I can get on with building it. 

  3. Anyone had any issues with making the GSXR750 engines fit? Seen loads around the internet. I seem to be having issues with mine. Tank won't clear the carbs. By about 2.5" I used the stock rear bottom tabs on the frame, as seems to be the common swap. Cant really lower the engine much more than it is. Chain run on the angles is pretty much perfect. Just not sure the best way to go about this really. Wondered if anyone else had any issues?

    I'm thinking the easiest option is to raise the rear of the tank, and modify the side panel to suit and line up a bit better. Thoughts?

  4. What sprocket carriers have less of an offset than the 1200 Bandit one? Have a 1200 rear in the GSX I am building. Ton of clearance between the chain and the tyre, but not enough to clear the frame, so I can afford to go in a hell of a lot. Heard that the Bandit ones have the biggest offsets on them, so wondering if anyone has a better option for me to try? Had a 500e one in the shed, but it does't fit the bandit drive. 

  5. Morning folks. Anyone running a Bandit arm in an EFE? Looking to put one in my 750ES, which is a similar looking frame, being square tubed. Most people say just use the centre stand mounts for the bottom mounts. But seems to be way wider than the Bandit knuckle for the linkage. Just wondered if anyone had any pics. Or is it easier to just grind off the centre stand mounts, and get some proper mounts welded up?
    Cheers.
  6. So. Looking at putting a 750M engine into my 750ES frame. The square tubed ones. Anyone done this? (Silly question as I know there are a few around.)

    How do the engine mounts line up for those who have done it? Heard some say just use the rear mounts, others have said rears and fronts all line up fine. Just wondered if anyones got any tips.

    Cheers. 

  7. On the old site there was some dimensions for the top hat spacers to fit slingshot/bandit arms in. 

    Dont suppose anyone's fitted a slingshot arm has these dimensions do they?

    Or, anyone help out with getting some machines up to get going with my project?

  8. I'll keep an eye on this. Doing one myself. Want to fit an oil cooled engine though. Had one a few years ago and can be a little on the slow side. Got a scabby 750m which after a few months of hacking around on over the next month or so, I'm gonna use as a doner. Engine, forks, arm, the lot.
