  1. Did you clean out the small holes by butterfly's? I spray brake cleaner through carbs to make sure all ways are clear.might be worth trying putting your hand over carb intake while running to see if its shifts any blockage.compression test will eliminate valves also try swapping 2&3 plug leads and see if problems shift to cylinder 2 will eliminate plug/lead problem

  2. My srad front end went straight in on my 750e just had to weld in a lock stop.theres a pic on my project build page

    check the all balls bearing site to see of there is an option just to swap bearings.

     

  3. PTFE tape will add to thread diameter and crack unions.prob better off fitting a new union.cup and cone face fit and nipped up gentley.ptfe tape is now an mot failure/illegal on hgv air brake systems because it leads to cracking alloy.im sure thread size is bsp.

  4. I thought they were the same as well?? I know the 1100 has a longer rear arm than 750 maybe 750 forks were shorter?? Odd that! I'm sure someone on this knowledgeable site will be along soon.

    Evening 

    I have been offered 2 frames to start my project off, 1 x 1100 slabbie 1 x 750 wn-wr The only problem I have to consider first is tanks , Tanks seem expensive for both even Double the price of the frames and nearly the price off a 12 Bandit engine which its going to run ( forced induction turbo or supercharged ) It helps working in a well know Diesel engine manufacturer R&D department. What shall I do ??? pondering waiting on a more built up chassis coming along??

    Thoughts anyone 

    I have a chopped rear subframe bandit frame if it helps you???

  6. id use light grade loctite,then if you have to remove barrels or head in future the studs wont screw out,if you use high grade they can stick in pretty good then if you want to remove them any time theyll, be solid,good move on cleaning threads as ape studs can bind up if not cleaned !!!!

    Hi there!

    Not much more to say, just that the clutch cable is new, correctly fitted.....I'm nearly sure it needs the clutch push rod changing...Any suggestions?

    Thanx frienzzz!

    Nice bike that! I replace push rods with stainless rod cut to length.bit of grease on both ends.I've had cheap cables be tight in past esp when there curved around head stock.have you checked the actuator cam in cover for binding at all the balls can dislodge when the cam gets worn.cheers.

    The problem is probably that the wheel is too wide, both rim width and hub width. Most people use an early 4.5" Slingshot wheel with a GS 500 sprocket carrier with a 160 tyre. Swingarms are quite narrow.

     

    Yes I gave up on mine and used a bandit 600 wheel 160 tyre with gs500 carrier

    could only find info on mk1 stuff..... dunno how different they can be/are but 4 turns out doesn't seem right lol 

    Id go for 1.5 turns and see how bike reacts from 1/4 to 1/2 throttle I've always used 1.5 as a starting point on standard jetting.

  11. Are you running this bike on road?! Ive heard a r6 shock fits??.I've seen in past soft nylon discs slotted and put over piston rod.then held in with a cable tie to act as a bump stop when launching.stops shock bottoming out.

    Is 1127 m slingshot the same as 750 k slingshot?  I have to tidy up two and I might make a board up to repair the switch gear n headlight looms

    I can't see that they'll be much different.the ECU plugs are same as ive even used a b6 ECU on gsxr11.

    When I can get back on to it, I’m doing something similar with my es. Regarding the foot rest mountings cut them off and make up new mounts. Then with the top shocker mount you have get creative with some tube to brace the frame and create a mounting for the shocker.780E0280-127E-4107-98B3-93808582A678.thumb.jpeg.16cef575fa588760234d9b90d4078931.jpeg
