    Well the pivot width is good but the swingarm bolt is smaller than the k2 it's do able if you used the wn bearings etc but I might for now spray the banana arm black use it this summer and do it next winter I want to get it back on the dyno soon so don't want to mess to much

    Wonderd where this had gone glad to see its still in once piece! Has good potential that. I kinda advised the previous owner,well bullied him to get it running and finish it as was close couple years back.

    Yeah I'm thinking I will I'm not sure how much it's worth , I've got to take it off but off memory it's got a 40/42 carb and it's pretty much brand new also comes with a newly made header and pipe and manifold I will pm you , I want to keep the mr turbo boost gauge I like it

    Well it went the dyno and a old problem re appeared number 4 carb float sticking it's my own fault I have got a full set of repair kits and due to time and having a new born didn't fit them so it ran on 3 cylinders was bloody fine on a test run last week but that's Sod's law but did a respectable bhp on 3 , the operator loved it says it's a very strong engine pulls hard the lock up clutch works perfectly just made me realise I need a new chain ! Spark plugs as a preventive measure also restrict the turbo oil line a little bit more but the good thing with a dyno you can see up close what is happening under load without peering at your engine with your helmet on or doing what I used to racing 2 strokes going up and down the road with spanners and jets doing plug chops.

    Cheers, so £1k plus for a standard 'ish set up?

    It all depends how far you want to go how much boost but a grand will get you a set up I don't know how much people would charge as me and my mate have done it all garage and shed engineering.

    cheers fella , to be honest I don't really know I think dave ( duckanddive) is your man, the Gsx air cooled lump was different altogether than the bandit , I do know my mate bought a kit of eblag for a grand but then he had to bore to 81 mm and buy some busa 1st gen Pistons and job done with some extra parts like af meter and boost gauge . Mine was a one off fabrication with great thanks to my mate who is a demon with a tig welder and me doing the engine.
