So what's best way of lowering a 750 then?
Ahahaha

Ill try that. I have an 750 lever and swinger around here somewhere.

I will recommend to get better front forks. 10 years old forks are really good and quite cheap.

I knew 3 guys that did this 6 speed swap way back when it was cool…..and all of them had 2nd gear failures ….. fucking waste of time for the agrovation.
How did it work out for the third guy? Is it still running? What was his trick(s) for making it work?

Good luck m8

I used a bandit axle, and cut down an bandit spacer 6mm on the right side, skimmed 2mm off the caliper where it mates the hanger.
This is a slab side as you see.

How did it ride with the st2 cams? Throttle response, midrange etc.

How rigid is a frame like that? What's the size of the tank?

I have found a good and sound 1100 arm that appears to be straight. But insanely expensive. Actually all I have found on the net have been very expensive.
So if I could upgrade to an better swingarm for the same or less money, I would opt for that
-
Super... Have you tried it out. Im desperate here.

Hello and welcome.
An important upgrade to the 1100w engines is good port of the cylinder head and larger inlet valves. It really frees up the engine.
The bst40 goes a long way with a good exhaust to match

Ive been looking around for swingarms and I can get a decent one cheap from an water-cooled 1100 with damper/lever/dogbones/rear axle/pivot axle.
Will it fit? From what I can rest on our interchangeable chart it should. But will it in the real world?
-
Quite sure I got a 750. But I'll have to check it up tomorrow night. The rear wheel is also acting up.
-
Is there any way to tell for sure if the swingarm is from an 750? And don't the 750 have dog bones?

Could be. Has the length of an 1100

How is the eccentric bearing supposed to sit?
-
It's an 1100 lever. But something must be off. The only thing I can find is that the shock is 327mm unloaded
-
-
My cushion sits like this, and only give 50mm of travel before the shock hits the swingarm. Wrong lever maybe?
-
Has anyone else than me run into problems with installing an 327mm rear shock in an slabside 1100?

Ok. It's what I got now with oem suza plates and works fine in a 160+ hp motor. But I'm m worried with the new and hopefully much beefier motor. What does turbo guys run?

I've been road abusing a 6 speed gearbox thanks to a 1216 with ported head, SERT cams, race carbs, race exhaust etc it's just had it's 5000 km service with no teeth in the oil pan yet.
I always use the clutch and am not always thrashing it but i'm guessing it's a healthy engine pushing well over 150 ?
Like @Nik(although less mileage ridden) i would not want a 5 speed anymore nor a stock 1127 either come to think about it
Keep us updated with reliability. I have heard of high failure percentage, but I have no hands on experience on 6 speeds in 1100+ engines. Both 750 I've had worked ok.

Anyone have a good suggestion about a really strong clutch at a realistic price?

I would go with 117.5 or 120 main jet and maybe an 1/8 out on the pilot. Should make it crisp and beefy
