    Rubber softener

    I used my credit card and bought new ones for my 1135, was tired of the fiddling. Only months later i bought RS36 and sold the set.
  2. I bet your ride for the next 3 months is the most silent ever... unless you swear alot
  3. That probably could be John McLean from Mclean racing
  4. Nothing big. The sprocket cover might need a slither of material removed to be able to remove it when in the 1100 frame.
  5. If you search in Europe you can still find the older stuff for decent / OSS money, Last week i missed out on a running EFE for 850. Guy needed it gone out of his shed but couldn't wait my drive time ( 450 km from the Netherlands to Germany takes time) In Germany there are about 4 complete EFE advertised around the 2000 € ( some 1700, some 2400.) Also Germany 750 or 1100 katana , some with a Speer rear, some with Resincourse all around the 2500 € Import should not be a hassle

    Magazine

    It could be interesting but sadly i belong to the 99.9% on here who dont understand these symbols Pictures are promising / show potential though
  7. During the rebuilt they should have used assembly lubricant - permatex 81950 or the likes - to prevent worrying about that. First engine revolutions on the startermotor only - no sparks plugs - untill the oil pressure switch light goes out. Then fire up.
  8. Try your local breakers, Eblag or a global webshop which sells Suzuki parts. I doubt you can wait long enough to access our Marketplace: I made some calculations: You need 50 usefull / contributing posts for our wanted section of the OSS marketplace: With your 10 posts in 4 years, Equals to 50 post in 20 years, so... Please ask again over 16 years
  9. Is the ignition switch working as intended? I have had all weird errors on my FI - gsx1400 because of a worn ignition switch. It made contact but only on a small copper surface. I had to fill some of the plastic components to regain full motion and coverage of the copper slides. Since i did that the bike had been performing faultless for 40.000km's
  10. Yup, same here. I use it a lot.
  11. I think that line was destined for another website "we dont care about stock on here"
  12. 1 probably was connected to the vacuumside of the fueltap. If not used, please blank it of as this effect how much the nr 1 carbs opens
  13. Hi Phil, Good to see you here
  14. From what i read here: Just contact them with your issue. Everyone on here claims that they are very helpful.
  15. On a side note : Wouldn't a 1978 bike mean it is a GS ?
  16. At this age , the tilt / tip over sensor can dry out. Had and seen it happen on more 1st gen FI bikes as on my own 2002 GSX1400. A new to me sensor from Eblag sorted that
  17. I do not think your fuel level is correct as you describe it: Classics usually set their level below the split This picture is not of a BST carb but is does show it is below the split. Hth
  18. If you look up the Suzuki part number, amazon will probably offer you a direct replacement from Bosch or other main brands
  19. https://oldskoolsuzuki.info/forums/uploads/monthly_2021_07/217634948_10161352591062571_5361295859587122383_n.jpg.9095f6d92818963854aa37d7554c498f.jpg 2 topics lower than yours
  20. I can only confirm the fuel pressure is correctly stated by you at 3 bar. Dunno bout the rest
