Got a link for the keyless ignition? It has an 05 GSXR1K front end with an LSL top triple, so the steering lock never worked anyway.
Sorry, keyless fuel cap not ignition.

I have a K1 and an L Slingshot and the filler cap holes are the same for both. Don't know if ignition fits. I used a keyless Harris on my Slingshot and can't recommend highly enough. Great quality and solves the matching key issue.

Just in case anybody needs them. Photos of how the GSXR 750 L mirror is assembled. My next job is get the stem welded or remanufactured in steel. Then work out what to use instead of the adhesive foam stuff in the mirror and buy a new mirror glass.

NRC covers and Hindle exhaust on mine, would recommend both.
I did check out Hindle but they didn't appear to do the 1990 750. Thanks for the NRC recommendation

I like a crash casing and they can save your bacon. I like a bling cam cover as well as a swinging arm.
What brand are the covers with the R? Rocker cover looks great. Plenty of ideas for me, thanks

May I suggest you install some bar end mirrors.
And then sell me your original mirrors.
What a great suggestion. I might as well make it a cafe racer and give you the fairing as well.

If you have a powdercoater mate i have red wrinkle powder i used on a rocker cover
I hadn't considered wrinkle powder coating. I don't suppose you have a photo of your rocker cover to hand. Thanks

Hi
I am looking to add a bit of bling to my Slingshot in the new year. Thinking of new alternator and clutch cover. Thinking either something like NRC with a ceracote finish or Yoshimura. I believe you lose the oil sensor with Yoshi. Does anybody have any views or experience of options. What colours do you reckon? Also fancy coating the rocker / can cover red. Inspired by the stuff on Moto Junkie from Japan. To go on my Lucky Strike L model. Also as my Cobra exhaust was a massive failure if I get a visa refund I am in the market for an exhaust. Currently thinking racefit or Moto Junkie bespoketitanium but open to options. All comments gratefully received. Happy new year to all.

Pics are on my laptop at work but if I get a chance I will post. These some that I have on my phone. Link pipe only partially went inside the silencer. Guessing the internal diameter inside narrows. Distance for the spring was far too great. I don't have a pic on my phone on the angle on the pipe compared to the side of the bike. Best description was pipe starts behind the foot peg and the inside edge of the silencer was aligned to the outside edge of the indicator. Rather than the outer edge of the indicator lining up mid silencer. I will post a pic when I get chance.

let's wait for @justin's explanation, and not guess.
I can't go in to great detail as it isn't permitted to post negative comments. Full bike specific system purchased. Silencer to link pipe fit was poor and angle of position in relation to the side of the bike didn't meet my expectations.
-
Well nearly 6 months after starting the post I can't finish it. As I respect rule 16 nothing more will be added. Ah well, back to the drawing board.

Didn't think of that. I will crack on with it today.

Still haven't posted the full and final review as still ironing out a few points with the manufacturer. Will do a full review once all completed.

Hi All,
My Slingshot 750 L mirror appears not to come apart. I tried prising the glass a little in case they pop out but stopped as I was concerned. Does anybody know if you can safely open the mirror or is it a complete assembly best left alone? I have included a pic as lots of different mirrors found on these bikes.
-
Well no pic of the finished exhaust due to a link pipe issue that I am waiting for a resolution to. Headers fit nice with 35mm M8 bolts and clear the fairings which is good news

Make sure you get all the shit out of the seat. Rotary brush on the Bkack & Decker works well!
All cleaned out

The 90 degree bend bit of an engineer's pick, £1-00 for a quality Eclipse item at autojumbles, enables fairly easy exhaust gasket removal
These buggers were well and truly sealed in. 1st one popped out easy as likes and then they just didn't want to play.
-
Well oil change completed thanks to @Captain Chaosconfirming 21mm socket. Had fun getting old exhaust gaskets out. Mmmm job has stalled..... Headers won't work with standard M8 x 25mm bolts so after much swearing M8 x 35mm ordered. Job will be stalled until next weekend. Rather frustrating but hey I have another bike and Wales beckons tomorrow
-
Cheers, that is a great help. 21mm socket is then tomorrow.
-
Bonus is I got the old bolts out today without snapping any, hooray. Not easy to do while holding your breath. Need to ponder the sump bolt tomorrow as it appears to be 20mm so need another socket.
