    Is it me or are B12 throttles slow

    in Oil Cooled

    Posted

    Go and buy a domino xm2 QA throttle and a set of domino cables. 
    they have changeable parts for the throttle tube to go from street>slightly quicker street>track 

    also the cables have the best feel I’ve found so far from OEM, venhill and domino.  The throttle is buttery smooth and worth every penny.

    Have the springs and damping of the R6 forks been adjusted or modified? An R6 will probably weigh several tonnes less than a modified ancient Suzuki 750, so it's not surprising if they don't work that well on a completely different bike. My guess is the R6 yokes will have less offset than the Blandit yokes too, which won't be helping. What R6 forks are they? Early RWU or later USD?

    No they are the standard stuff. They are 13s USD forks. Weight wise my bike is 10kg heavier than the R6 so not miles out. 

    The yoke has the same stem/fork offset as a B12.

    Hi All, 

    I’m looking for some help with a handling issue I’ve been struggling with with a GSX750. 
    It’s fairly well modified, R6 front end, b12 mono, gsxr oil engine. 
     

    The trouble I have is it requires a lot of pressure on the handle bar to stop the front end from folding in. I’ve had the bike with a B12 front end and setup like a dream.

    The R6 front end has a stepped yoke, the front ride height is set the same as the old B12 front end. Rear ride height set the same as another ET (which handles like a dream with a B12 front end). 
     

    What should I be looking at? I’ve checked headstock bearings and they are good. 
    apart from playing with ride heights I’m lost? 
     

    Cheers,

    Rob

    Decent pace that. (y)

    I’ve got no idea how a bandit 600 can make 1:41 though :S
     

    Ideally I’d like a 1:48 or less next time I’m there…

    Front end issues

    in Air Cooled

    Hi All,

    I’ve got a 750 GSX ET which has bandit 6 forks/wheel fitted and handiling wise everything was lovely until....

    I’ve changed the foot position so it’s further back and up. Now I have an issue where the front end feels like the tyre is flat. Theres definitely more weight over the front end now the seating position is naturally further forward, how can I sort this? 

    I’ve checked the tyre pressures, air gap on forks and wheel bearings but all seem ok??

    I tried fitting spacers in the forks but it’s made little difference...

    Am I looking at forking out for 9.0 linear springs? 

     

    750ET Workshop manual

    in Air Cooled

    Posted

    Hi all,

    Recently acquired a 1981 GSX750 et (square cam end caps). I need a workshop manual as I need to tear down the engine. 

    Does anyone know where to find one? I can't seem to find one anywhere!

    Thanks!
