Russ750ET

When I went I parked up a few streets behind the venue. Harold Ave or Thornville Street. Proper sketchy area but my car remained intact. I wouldn't go there in anything expensive! I won't be able to make it this year, but would recommend it to anyone tempted. Every bike on show is proper top tier stuff.

Yeah Larry confirmed with me this week. Main day is Saturday. Very welcome to stay at the workshop Saturday night and leave whenever on Sunday

The GSX1100ET uses those carbs so you could use the standard jetting from that to potentially get it somewhere near. 45 Pilots and 110 Mains. Needle in middle clip I believe. Fuel screws 2-3 turns out, or whatever achieves smoothest idle/pick up off idle. Air correctors are fitted for POD filters. I'd remove them for use with an airbox

I did a bench sync using a drill bit to start with, it gets it somewhere near but if you want it to run perfectly smooth you will want to do a proper vacuum gauge sync.

Best to remove the carbs and have a play. I experimented with different spring positions when I rebuilt mine. Surprising how much difference it makes on the amount of tension, should certainly help!

Posting on behalf of Imago (Larry). OSS gathering at the Rea Repairs shop in Redditch. Format the exact same as previous years, ride outs Saturday/Sunday. Camp over at/in the shop Saturday night. Everyone welcome to come & go as they please. Pop over for an hour or do the entire weekend. Hopefully see a load of you there again, been a fun, easy going event the last few years! Unit 18a, Walkers Road, North Moons Moat Ind Est, Redditch. B98 9HE

As above, sounds like needles. Easy enough to tweak, see where they are at and go the next clip lower/richer, raising the needle, to allow more fuel.

I like the look of this Paul, will confirm whether I do the entire weekend or just pop over for a day

I snapped one at Worship late last year

Couple snaps on my SLR. I had the shutter way too quick and they turned out a bit dark, tinkered them brighter a bit. Proper good weekend with the OSS boys and gals!

This has been a great build to follow

Is that gloss or satin black on the cases Clive? Getting the GSX750 engine done by Brian is on my long term goal list. Getting bored of touching up with PJ1 Fast Black!

Sounds like you need to balance the carbs, this is critical for a good idle and nice low RPM behaviour. You can get quite close with a bench sync, but a vacuum gauge will get the best result. Be careful with the Eblag jet kits. Quality can often be poor. For jets it's best to stick with genuine Mikuni ones for jetting accuracy. The pod filters will likely create a lean flat spot or lean overall running condition but this is fairly easy to identify, but not always easy to solve. If you want ease of use and consistency then an airbox is the way to go.

Absolutely! Put my name down Paul

I'll be there again. Enjoyed it this year
