The adjusters are threaded in to the frame, the pivot shaft is not threaded. Try soaking it with penetrating oil and letting it sit, then try hitting it with a hammer again to get it out.
thanks - will have another go today

Nut is out on the right hand side ok. Nothing is shifting when tapped with a hammer. Not sure if it's threaded on left hand side shown in the picture

Any suggestions as to how to get the spindle out without special tools?

Fitting a 750K2/K4 rear end to my 750K slingshot frame, and have a few questions for anyone who has been down this road.
1. Using a 1000K1 shock. Which dogbones fit?
750 Slingshot and 750K2/K4 are too long. I think I need 150mm based on my mates bike with a similar conversion.
2. What size if sleeve / spacer is needed using the slingshot spindle?
Is 20mm/24.6mm correct?

Yes please mate, I want to run K8 set up in a slabby with a metmachex slingshot arm
+1 I've got a Metmachex arm for a 750L and looking to fit 750K2 or K3 rear wheel

thanks for info guys. K2 back end purchased and trial fit once I get it stripped down to a bare frame.

As per title will a 750k2 swingarm (and shocker) fit on a 1990 750L frame?
Would it be a straight bolt on fit, or is some engineering prowess required with spacers and jiggery pokery etc?

@Allspeedsdo you have any info / details on the headlights please? ta

just checked mine, its 15 rows and 20cm in height (oil cooler body), 24 cm top mount to bottom mount. which makes sense seeing as its a 750 frame (with 1100 engine)
-
^^^^ thanks - I'll go and measure mine
-
whats the best way to distinguish between 750 and 1100 (slingshot) oil coolers?
how many rows is the 750 and 1100? or dimensions (height?)
I think I've had a bit of senior moment....

Most people tend to use a 19 row oil cooler.
Standard size hoses are AN8 ( - 8 , JIS 8 or 3/4 UNF )all the same just different name.
Torques can supply all the fittings at a decent price if your not fussed by branded stuff (Goodridge etc..)
Problem is you will spend nearly as much on hoses and fittings as you will on a cooler..
Thanks SiBag - thats bang on mate!
-
yep thats the kind of thing fatblokeonbandit!
-
The oil cooler on my 7/11 has a hairline crack on the mount / housing where the L/H hose bolts on to. Edit to add - its pishing oil!
I'm guessing this might be fixable by specialist welding, second hand ones on egay are £50+ with some "needing repair" so thinking after market oil cooler? Quick look on that site shows various coolers new from £30 up, but I don't have a clue about fitments etc!
What would I need to buy after market - rows (17??) and hose fitments assuming standard feeder hoses will need replaced?
Engine is 1990 1127cc slingy motor.
Any advice and guidance much appreciated!
cheers
