  1. BST38 and 40 use the same diameter inlets, so either would be good if you can find some
  2. thanks trying to keep it kind of factory looking was the idea. No, really
  3. a few pics since refurb has been completed, needed work but it turned out well

    switch issue

    @Rijkogood points i'll check that out.

    switch issue

    given these following facts regarding a right handlebar light switch : • 12 V feed to input wire is present • switch continuity between the 12V input and output wires is tested ok when you switch the switch on yet no power through the output wire when the switch is put on ?
  6. i fitted an RF900 header on an 1157 engine to complete a bike project it required a bit of effort on the spacing aspect but other than that it hugged the engine pretty well
  7. maybe ultra sonic cleaning will break the bond ?
  8. but won't the brass dots not be on the same PCD ?
  9. loose valve clearance can affect compression readings. stem seals can be culprits for oil burning. may not need all that much to sort it out but if you have an engine spare you'd do well to pop it in while you go over/under/through the one you've got in the bike
  10. @Wagolafyi : thats the small diameter GN/TU. Not compatible on oil cooled bikes the one featured by @TJSthat fits his 400 is also the same smaller diameter GS use the small diameter All GSX and GSXR 750/1100 OC+WC, and Bandit 600-1200 use the large diameter and can be swapped over
  11. no, I mean a petrol tank is vented to enable fuel to flow, otherwise it couldn't leave the tank. this is usually done through the tank cap. I was under the impression that Oil and WC cooled GSXR are vented through the breather on the top of the tank, but SRAD onwards and all Bandits don't have the old GSXR type breather so i'm guessing the fuel caps went to being vented like most caps are ?
  12. silly question because i think i know the answer, but the SRAD cap or bandit cap are indeed self vented and same diameter and PCD as the oil or wc GSXR ?
  13. looking good. and you're certainly putting that unused part i had on a cool project regarding the Thunderarse forks the diameter is indeed the largest of factory RWU forks however the discs are the classic Yamaha dialing in at only 298mm so if you want anything larger you need caliper offset brackets (not a fan of those myself)
  14. using a strip of emery cloth is an option in the bodgery department

    not my build but that guy definitely was inspired

  17. thats because the restrictor is welded into the headers at the entrance of the downpipes. there's no spare part to reference or show 1410040C04H01 general header part number for all markets 1991 1100 1410040C30 (E4) is the header part number for the french market restricted version with the welded pipes example of a standard french ones here : i misstated the carb restriction. it's the slides that need swapping or drilling the hole out that is there on full power bikes
  18. "supressed" here means "replaced by". 40C00 10 20 and 30 are all referenced for the M/N 1100 there is no ECU reference for E04 market (France) which confirms the restricted versions had standard ECUs They'll probably all work the same anyway
  19. has the vacuum pipe to the petcock been pinched/partially pinched by any chance ?
  20. i think the restricted oil cooled bikes were only done by the reducer rings welded in the header down pipes and the spacers in the carbs to prevent full opening. the WC bikes had specific cams and ECUs to achieve the same effect
