  1. Bit of a update. Seen him last night and he has a plan, he's going to look out for ever a gsxr750 or gsxr1000 engine and see what turns up at a price he can afford first. He is also going down the Streetfighter root, no fairing and single seat etc. he was having a good look at the Gsx1100f HellCat I'm doing and I think that made his mind up on a Streetfighter look He was very interested in the busa root but there out of his price range. Told him to join here as there will be more info and know how on wc stuff than I can give him, as wc is still new modern stuff to me
  2. This is the same thing on the side, clear which like you say don't look the best, the worst thing with this one is it being that 1-2mm to big. It's usable but not good
  3. Just to let you all know. Just got one of the aftermarket replacement rear light lense for my gsx1100et light, got it off Eblag from a EU country. And it's to big, not by much and you can fit it but instead of it sitting in the lense grove it sits just no the outer lip of the groove. Just thought I'd let you know if you where thinking of getting one instead of the expensive OEM ones
  4. Miss W has had a head cooler as well as the 330mm 19 row cooler on her standard gsxr1127 (apart from the Cobra exhaust and K&N dual filters) for years with no problems
  5. Like anything tuning wise, it all depends on what you want. Yes they will work, be better with a 1216 kit but they will work, you will lose a lot of bottom to mid power but top end will be good. If you have a opportunity I'd go for more the 36 then the 38 as you may find the 38 are a pain if you're riding in town/traffic
  6. Not sure if that will be fun or just NOOOO
  7. I will show him this thread over the weekend
  8. Not as much as a mate just someone who lives down the road, but as these things go, got a feeling going to see him more
  9. A nice sleeper Don't know what he's doing with bodywork as it's got track bodywork on at the moment
  10. The easy way is just to put a 600 engine in it, but where's the fun in that Going to see if he will join OSS and do a project piece on it if he goes for a bigger engine Looking at the specs, the gsxr1000 has 4bhp more but 35ft pound of torque less than the Hayabusa. So for road use (if it was me and it would fit) the Hayabusa would be more fun with the extra torque
  11. Ok all, A man down the road from me, has a gsxr600 srad ex race bike with a blown up engine. Got chatting and he wants to put on the road but with a bigger engine. So question that came up was, he was thinking of the 750 srad but we then got on to think if a gsxr 1000 or even Hayabusa engine? Now I don't know anything about theses water cooled engines. So what would you lot be looking at putting in ?
  12. Even the Tokico 4 pots that you get in the gsxr srad are better then the 6 pots
  13. The 6 pots are not the best, keep the 4 pots on
  14. You quite often find the arrows are not always bang on as the book says.
