Ordered some 70mm horns , the standard ones are touching everything even with the brackets reversed. Put the front wheel back in today , one of the spindle clamp threads is u/s so just gonna get some stainless 60mm cap heads and nuts to get round that problem. So , apart from the meg bracket very little to do to the efe now . Luckily the katana chipped in today with a few little jobs to make up for that tho , lol Fitted wadded baffle , new front brake light switch, and fitted the genuine sharks fins. Puddy

Yeah , just gotta make a bracket for the v&h meg , its actually a srteet meg with a n off set unlike the race ones which are dead straight. But now its all fully on there it actually runs quite nicely behind the brake pedal, more to come on that. Cheers puddy

Well I've been chipping away at the oil cooler problem, standard one runs right thru the starcycle headers. Found an old cooler in the shed , cut off the bsp fittings and had dash 6 weld ons fitted. Bought a cheap bracket kit on the bay and modded that a bit to fit . Finally bought a very nice oil cooler line kit , just had to spread the 180's a bit to fit. Also bought some fittings for the lines into the block , and put it all together today , worked out very nicely. Puddy

Thats what I said. Can't be arsed to go back over the thread again , but have either set of carbs been PROPERLY ultrasonically cleaned ? Puddy
-
Since you have been taking off and swapping the carbs , have you balanced the carbs in pairs then both pairs together ? ( in sets ) Tbh , I would have paid a motorcycle mechanic to have a look at it by now , I bet its something really simple.

Yeah looked at those , but the mounts look more like motad silencers. Puddy

Got this lot with my katana, just wanna know what irs off of before I stick it up for sale. Chrome downpipes deffo not original kat. Aftermarket silencers , cant see any markings. Puddy

Thats the easy bit unfortunately, getting them back in once the rubbers have hardened and trying not to fold them whilst trying to line up 8 x spigots. All part of the 'fun' tho , lol. Good luck , puddy

If you ride a classic Suzuki , then you have either done that , or nearly done that , and you're a liar if you say you haven't, lol. Puddy

Ta , can't wait to ride past some shop windows and admire the loveliness , lol. Puddy

Nope , I'm just the same ! Puddy

Well would you believe it ? Managed to keep the original pedal with fitting the aftermarket pegs and billet brackets that came with the bike , spaced out from the frame slightly. Adjusted the brake pedal pushrod to get the pedal level , just gotta make the bracket to hold the meg on. Well happy! Puddy

Is that 20mm 18 spline ? Been looking at those. If I can get a steel pedal , will just bend a bit of tube and attach to the spline and the pedal. Cheers puddy
-
Anyone know if another models brake pedal is the same fitment /spline size ? I need a steel one not cast ally to modify, please see below.

Well , been busy over the weekend, luckily it warmed up , 9 deg c, toasty ! Rubbed down , primed and painted. Put them all back together today with new seals , oil and dust covers. Will refit them once I've sorted the loose fitting secondhand starcycle headers, more to follow on that puddy
-
Very nice , better pics needed Puddy
-
Have you checked cam timing ? Not a valve just clipping a piston ? Can yo borrow a bore scope and have a look inside , would be easiest. Puddy
-
Only trouble I find with hammerite is it takes ages to go off , and you have to leave it 24hours for every subsequent coat. I like the halfords satin black myself , goes on lovely. Cheers puddy
-
Todays task , lol. More pics later when they are done and back together , also wanna paint the lower legs. Puddy

Sling him in the cooler with a baseball for a couple of weeks , that will sort him out , lol. Puddy
