WOW

Hens teeth spring to mind

What options for GS1000 carbs, easy fit as don’t want to be taking forever to fit.

Correct, the S has the larger 28s

LED giving up, getting on a bit now, lots available on the Eblag take your pick.

Nice, Red decals for me if I was to go with the black.

Measure inside diameter where carbs push onto rubbers, 28mm GS1000"

Thanks, that is a start point for me, now to decide which one to go for, lots of prep first though.

Anybody know the paint codes for 1980 1100ET, Looking for std colours, Black, Red, Blue, and silver. Thanks folks

Very tidy mate, just in time for early summer IN FEB !!!

When your shed space is full to bursting and you ain’t got space for owt else then the addiction has to be addressed, kick out the wife and kids and start to move it all into the house

So are you inflating tubes slightly when fitting??

Sounds like the grease nipple way is easier if you have the correct grease gun, Nicky boy will need to drill and tap out the snapped of bleed nipples, not an easy task. Think a GS1000 caliper is the same but beware old ones will also be a bugger to get out as well.

Am I missing something here cause if you drill out to fit grease nipple then the calliper will be toast anyway, chances are the piston will also be fucked if it won’t budge. caliper splits into two halves, I’ve split it and applied release fluid, through the holes, whilst apart pad out your vice with two pieces of wood and see if the pistons will push in to initiate some movement and break the seal, if piston moves then fill the back of the piston with release fluid and rejoin both halves, clean off any fluid and heat behind the piston, as the fluid gets hot it will expand and with a bit of luck push the piston out, it worked for me.

Can anybody advise on checking the indicator circuit, if I unplug the left hand switch from the main loom can i use a jumper from the orange red tracer wire on the loom ( live feed ) onto the light blue for the right hand indicator and the light green black tracer for the left indicator. How to check the relay switch How to check the turn signal control unit. Thanks.

Don’t forget to let em cool again though ah

Depends on the year, some have choke leaver built in some dont, check your wires against the nine pin block connector on your bikes loom

Done prior to refitting, now running as it should thanks.

Forgot to mention the Marving 4 into 1 race system, I like the look of it but not experienced with it,

Nice rear

Cheepo at that, and a runner too

Motad 4 into 1 pick one up on the bay easy enough

Engine was blasted first then painted with high temp silver then cooked on the barbie, can’t remember exact name of paint but will see if I’ve any left next time I’m in the workshop, it’s a Matt finish as didn’t want to go all glossy
