  1. Just checked on my "spare" GSX1400 engine: The holes are M8, 58mm apart, exhaust gasket is OD 42.5mm, ID 32.5mm The outside header diameter of my aftermarket / Akrapovic header is 40mm. Alternatively: The GSX1100F engine i have for my upcoming ET project: Holes are M8, 58mm apart, gasket OD is 42.5mm , ID 32.5. However... Pretty sure you need to slot oil cooled exhaust flanges to fit to an aircooled engine as in this picture
  2. Aghh crap... All these pictures are loading except the one of said girlfriend . Ps... sorry if i have a loud inner Quagmire
  3. I think we need more gsx1400 builds on here.... can't say that without looking biased
  4. The nipple at the back of the petcock operates the valve by vacuum. The vacuum is delivered by the running engine and is usually taken of a nipple fromnthe carburettor. If you put the petcock on pri , you prime the carbs : fill them by hand. If the PRI does not fill the carburettor some hoses are routed differently than intended. It kind of sounds like you have connected the filler cap drain to the fule delivery side of the petcock but hard to tell without pictures.
  5. Nah... doubtful. If so.. Jay has my permission to be my stand in. ( think i was his designated wingman after all ) Besides: If my goal was to disapoint two people at the same time... i will just visit my parents much less hassle.
  6. Nah, he/she is all yours mate This could be the 2 for 1 deal of your lifetime.
  7. ATM it is unsure if i can make it. Family holiday plan isnt fully crystalized yet but it all happens around that date.
  8. Would a sauna be a better place for this conversation?

    Tps

    A OEM wire loom of a stock 1985 suzuki does not have a Throttle Position Sensor. - what are you trying to do? If you installed Bandit 1200 carburettor with a TPS ... Just leave it unplugged.
  10. Oooh, so close to startup . Nice
  11. Nah... the way i see it: Paul is just a few meals ahead and a tat more shits behind Or stocking up for a growth spurt
  12. Yup, we tend to ignore / reject the fact suzuki made a huge marketing mistake by putting katana decals on anything oil cooled on this very website. Only the original - air cooled - early 80's is allowed to be referred to as a Kat or Katana. In your case, just drop a different engine in it of a gsx1100F , the one with the electrical windscreen aka a "powerscreen"

    Stuff.

    Another heads up: You can access the marketplace after 50 post. With your average of 17posts in a year.... you can unlock the treasure cave in just under 3 years from now Just think about how the price will have risen by then.
