  1. Might be getting mixed up with the gsx750/1100et
  2. Should do, but you will need to sort a rear hanger. The old Harris are soooooo cool
  3. I like loud exhaust but this would make the local cops look at you, but it won't be as loud as a more standard 4-1 with link pipe and no end can.
  4. Plans are to convert to stick coils. But just not a lover of Li batterys (yet )
  5. Last year but will be worth doing
  6. Ok all, before I start into the bike, just thought I'd ask you lot to see if you have any other thoughts. B12 engine. Over the summer started to get hard to start, would turn over nicely but would start to back fire/pop through the exhaust, then the starter motor/ or starter clutch would start to go clunk, then the battery would die very quickly. When bike is running battery reads 14.4v and when stud reads around 12.4-12.8v Thought it might be battery, but now put two new batteries on (different types) same thing. Check the starter clutch all looks well. Thinking ever bad earth or starter motor? Have got a blue spark but not the strangest one I've seen and same on all 4 cylinders. Any ideas or thoughts?
  7. Definitely not go for the 40mm flat slides, way way way to big. Yes the 29mm will work
  8. Is that the 750 or 1100 WC basket? Always nice to know this sort of thing
  9. I've stripped it down today, and apart from the piston that's fucked. It just had one pin and one bleed nipple stuck, and the badly done gold paint As I'm going to put some Titanium pistons,pins and bleed nipples in the one I got off @Svsami can use the pistons etc out of that one and bring this one back to life with a new seal kit I've then got a good spare for ever the gsx1157et or the miss gsxr1100
  10. And one caliper piston and seal
  11. Just bought a rear caliper for to refurb and keep as a spare (as you do as 3 I my bikes use them) Any how it was cheep very cheep and I knew it needed a clean and refurb. But how can anyone let there rear brake to get to this point I bet we have all seen this sort of thing but... The out side pad has worn away that much, it has not only gone through the pad and the anti scweel shim but has started to wear the piston as well The person how was riding the bike not only feel the difference in braking but the noise from the rear brake when used steel on steel must of gave them a hint
  12. Well done on giving up smoking, I managed to quit about 15 years ago, problem is, as you may now find you will have more money for bike parts and bikes
  13. I've got a rf9/b12 MK1 rear wheel in my gsxr750wr swingarm. The rf and b12 wheels are lighter than the standard gsxr wheels. I then converted the rear disc and caliper to one off a gsxr1000 which was a bit more work I've heard people using the yam and Triumph wheels and yes they are lighter than Suzuki but seem to dent and buckle much easier
  14. @TJShave you any better pictures of the 6" wheel in the swingarm, showing how much room there is between the swingarm top brace and tyre etc, and what size tyre is fitted. Just I know the srad 6" rim with tyre will not fit anywhere near in the swingarm
  15. If it's a gsxr750wr type swingarm you have, a 6" wheel will not fit. I know this because my kat has a wr swingarm and I recently tried fitting a srad 750 6" rear wheel but the tyre hit the bracing on the swingarm, so I couldn't get the wheel fully in nevermind trying to get it centered
