    OK that looks cool Now know more about your set up, with them zorsts I go for starting with more like a 144 main, you should not need to change the pilot jets and for now keep the needle in the standard place and see how it runs. I've got the power screen 1127 motor in my kat but with gsxr750 38mm carbs and I'm running 150 main jets needles are at 2nd from the top groove and pilot screw at 3.5 turns out.

    Welcome to OSS, stick around and you will soon be doing more than just filters Cheepo filters are crap and will give you more trouble, so 1. If you just want it to run and have the standard air box put that on. 2. If not got the standard air box get some Ramair or K&N filters for it. 3. If you're not putting a more free flowing end can on you will be putting more air in than the motor needs. 4. A start point with jets, main jet 136 keep the needle in the standard place and keep the standard pilot jet size. You may find the cheepo filters you have are not letting much air in, had a set of the cheep Emgo filters once and even when I put a hair drier in one end you could not even fell the air coming out of the filter at the other end.

    oil or water

    Just put tape over the gauge, then it don't matter
  6. +1 and I think the swing arms are wider at the wheel spindle end, so you may need different spacers as the gs1 rear wheel is slightly wider. So to your answer, yes it will fit but you don't need a big hammer just a standard size one
  7. Done it both ways in the past, first bolted the cooler strate to the frame on the gs,kat and other bikes and had no problems. I have also used rubber rings between the frame and the cooler bracket over the years and I've not seen any difference between the two ways.

    GSX 1200

    I'd send it by PM if I was you there watching you know
  9. It would be fun to ride Not much help but I've seen a cbr 600 in the cbr 400 frame. If a hon#a can do it Suzuki must be better
  10. From what I can see on your pics all looks OK. Their are usual 3 (12mm think maybe 10mm ) that hold the alt in place (heads of bolts on the lh side of motor) As @CockneyRicksays count the teeth on the sprockets and someone who know bandits more can tell you what's what The alt can be a real pain to get in place and mess the teeth, unless you're very lucky it the teeth where wrong and the bike has run I would of expected to see damage.
  11. If it's the wrong one and its been running I'd have a much closer look, the gear at the back of the clutch that the alternator goes onto also runs the oil pump. If you think its the wrong alt, I'd remove the clutch and have a good look/check that all is OK before you go looking for a new alt.
  12. Hi and welcome to OSS, Yes there are different sizes of sprockets (gears as you say) and if you force the wrong size in you can bust the gear on the back of the clutch basket (not cheep)
  13. PS, just had a look on that site, and looks like all the 750 and 650 has the bolt. May do the job.
  14. If not, I believe all the GS oil filter covers interchange and I'm shore someone will be along to say which one/ones have the bolt
  15. Some GS (cannot remember which think its the 550/650) oil filter cover have a bolt to one side (so it misses the spring) could you put the sensor there?
  16. If it helps, the gsx-es etc has the temp sensor on the oil pressure sensor plate that's on the top of the crank case rear of the barrels.
  17. Hi all, Can anybody tell me what other rh switch gear will plug in/work on a b12 mk1 harness? I'm thinking a b6 will? Will any others? Cheers.
  18. That is so sweet he would be happy with that, I would think
  19. Jobs like that @baldricki will have to let you have a play with the next project
  20. I've seen different years put in b6, but the pre 2000 have the best carbs. I believe you can put the pre 2000 carbs on the later engines, the main thing is to get one that had the 4-1 zorst so you don't need to mess with the sump but only the very early ones had the 4-2 zorst. Gsxr750 also go strate in, even more bhp I will let someone who knows more about the gsxr750 motors tell you more on that one.
  21. Put a gsx750f in it, same zorst etc, but 36mm carbs. About the same price but with more power and no need to mess with front/rear ends unless you want MK2 b6 just need to blank off PAIR at front, I believe the pick ups are the same and as said above alt just two wires, easy
  22. Just did a teeth count, 66 Cheers again
