  1. Just a quick update now my bikes all up and running, for future reference in case anyone else needs it!

    On my ignitor box the Pink and black/red tacho feed turned out to be to opposit way round to that posted above. 

    For testing purposes the 'pink' terminal had an output of 0.9v

  2. Apologies if there is already a post on this... I promise I have spent a loooonnnggg time using the search on here and Google trying to find out... can anyone provide me with a diagram or a photo of which wire goes to which terminal on the below ignitor box (1990 GSXR) please.IMG_20200507_163359.thumb.jpg.3f4c44f3145e051a73895b7591684ac9.jpg

    I have the schematic for the GSXR and the gsx750 my bike is based so I know I have the correct colours, just nothing identifies which terminal each colour goes to!

    I think the three coil/ (2 lives, 1 earth) and a direct earth go into the larger plug. Then the two ignition signal wires and tacho feed are in the smaller plug, leaving 1 spare terminal?

    The larger plug on the GSX unit had the blank spaces in the centre not one side as this is, so my guess would be to move the white and black/yellow across to the centre on this plug?IMG_20200507_164325.thumb.jpg.3216c06d4aec7305cb982c88abee1a12.jpg

    Thanks in advance for any help offered on this!

  3. so... are any of the clutch shafts a direct swap for my motor?? I'm starting to think it may be a '91

    Reading up on the BST38 carbs it has, they are the 'small hole' type, it says in a thread that the '90 had large drain screws so you could change the jets without dropping the bowls out - mine only has small drains (although I might try and find a set of large hole ones). 

    That's presuming of course they are the original carbs for the engine!

    When I pull it out to get the frame finished I'll take the rocker cover off and check how the valves are adjusted to be sure!

  4. @DuckndiveI've had a look through and can't find anyrhing regarding swapping shafts between bikes... only how to swap the entire cluster into another bike, and in this case it points out that the shaft would need drilling!

    I think my motor is actually a '90 - R716 code?

    can you not swop the input shaft or gearbox for one from a long stroke ? 

    Not sure on that yet... it may be an option. It also may be an option to bore the exising shaft - I'm sure I read on here it has been done. I've spoken to my machinist friend and he's done similar before, just not on MC parts. I need to find out some specs of the hollow shaft (hole size etc.) and if they are just case or through hardened first.

    Perhaps someone on here can advise if a swap is possible?

    Could be if that seat support gives way! LOL!

    Rode it 2 years like that without issue (and I'm 100kg without gear!)... I've had to change it now though as I've changed the swing-arm and put a normal monoshock/linkage set-up in. it has one from each side of the frame now, still meeting at the centre under the rear of the seat.

    I think it keeps the rear looking slimmer rather than having the bars up each side

  7. I agree with @Dezzaon this one... it takes while but I'd sit down with a Vernier and pull all the bolts you need to replace, measure and make a list then email a couple of bolt suppliers, at least that way you know exactly what you are getting. It also allows you to make improvements such as using 'flange buttons' for any fairing bolts etc. GWR-fastenersdo coloured stainless if that's your thing... I'm not a fan of alloy bolts at all
