  1. And a brown seat, you will get on well here
  2. All depends on how you look at a direct swap the swingarm goes into the frame but you need to sleeve the pivot bearings down. I used the gsxr600 srad shock with the standard top gsxf mount but I altered the bottom one, as I used the srad linkage, as I didn't have a gsxf one. The 5.5" srad wheel lines up nicely with a 180 rear tyre but a bit more work to fit the 6" rim. Bandit 400 footrests bolt straight onto the f frame.
  3. If the engine is highly tuned or your in a hot part of the states. Otherwise a cooler is just for show and be better off with the standard switch. Welcome to OSS by the way and try putting this in the air cooled section as you'd probably get more response, as the GS is a air cooled engine
  4. Don't know about the standard swingarm but I've fitted a gsxr600 srad then a gaxr1000 k1-3 swingarm in my gsx1100f with a 6" rim with 190 tyre looking at putting a 200 tyre on the rim, when I can find a part used one first to make sure it will work
  5. Think I know what you mean, the only way I know is to put them side by side but someone may know? RF front wheel is 3.5" for both the 900 and 600 but the 600 has a smaller spindle and uses the same discs as the b6 MK1 The rears are 5.5" for the 900 I think 4" for the 600 but it maybe a 4.5"?
  6. If you like that style, look at Hayabusa front end. Are you keeping the big fairing on it? If so that may give you some more problems. Someone on here has recently got a gsx1100f and kept it looking standard but with better running gear (17" wheels etc) can't remember who and can't remember if it was in oil cooled or project section. My be worth you have a good look though then pages but it was 2 or so mouths ago.
  7. Welcome to OSS As Clivgto says anything will fit but gsx/gsxr etc will go in which ever one you will probably have to look at altering the lock stops. I've got a gsxr600 srad rwu front end in my gsx1100f, just got the bearings off All ball racing and altered the lock stops. All in my project build thread gsx1100f hellcat in the project pages.

    I slotted a b12 back plate to give me a 4° advance, that's on my gsx1100f Hellcat project build

    CDI

    Just getting my head round that you can use 1052 pickup plate and rota on a 1127 but you can't use the 1052 pick rota with a say b12 pickup plate Just thinking about that is the 1052 a twin pickup and bandit a single. Will have to go in the garage and check

    CDI

    What ignition rota pickup (bit that bolts to the end of the crank) are you using? Just, I tried a 1052cc one on my b12 engine (b12 MK1 pickup plate) and it didn't work. I'm also running a 1052 pickup, rota and CDI on my gsx1100f engined kat seems to work fine. Seems CDI box's will change but do the pickup plate and rotas need to match each other or can you use any pickup plate but it's the rota needs to match the engine?
  11. If you need things doing you can't do yourself and you've got a build thread going, you could always ask on here if people can help out, it my only cost you the postage if there's nobody near you.
  12. You say 84 gsx1100e twin shock, so are we saying gsx1100et ? I put a b12 front end on my gsx1100et but used gsxr750k yokes (can also use gsxr1100k yokes) fitted straight in, just had to alter the lock stops. Rear end, you can fit a b6 rear wheel in the standard swingarm without much hassle. @TonyGeeI believe can tell you more with that part. I've used a JMC with a b12 rear wheel

    My thoughts exactly be nice to know if anybody has looked into this a bit more.

    CDI

    Seems a lot of these questions just recently So, I know a gsx750f cdi will on a MK1 b12, gsx1100f and a gsxr1127 and the other way around. I would think the b6 and gsx600f would also work. So my question is. Dose anybody know what the different cdi's would affect the running? I.E different power curve? Thinking, say a b12 lower revs and low down power, gsxr high revs and top end power and gsxf simmer revs (apart from the 600 and 750) and mid power???? Anybody know???
  15. Yes, they only do the gloss and Matt in engine paint but I've used the Simoniz Tough satin black on my b12 engine, and it's been on there since I built it and sill looks as good as it did when I put it on. Yes put petrol over it and it will discolour unlike the engine paint but I try not to do that
  16. Do you want mate satin or gloss black or the gsxr grey? I've used Simoniz spray cans, the gloss is very good the mate is a bit on the grey side but for the satin I've used there tough coat and has lasted for 3+ years on my b12 engine As above for the removal of the old stuff
  17. Welcome to OSS All depends on how standard looking you want it? You may find the custom tank off the gsx750, the 850/1000/1100 may fit but will be longer.
  18. I think it should be plug and play, if your CDI box (which I think it should have) the larger 5mm spade connectors instead of the latter small ones you get on the latter bandit's. I can take a pic of it tomorrow
  19. I have this Gsx600f but will work, you just need to match the pick up (ATU) or swop the CDI (ECU) Pm me if you're interested
  20. Have a look in general section and you will find your answer
  21. Dose anybody have a size (width X height) of the fairing for the gsx550 es/ef/efe With and without screen Thanks
  22. Lol, I was born and bred in England and 54 years later still have problems with the written English language Slabby, slabside is a gsxr750/1100 g, h, j early gsxr's Teapot is the gen 1 gsx600f The gen 2 gsx600/750f is a baboon arses B6 yes bandit 600 B12 bandit 12
  23. Sounds like you have a US harness as they have the indicators wired into the headlight/side light. If you trace the wires you will find 3 wires going to the indicators at some point instead of the UK 2 wires
  24. Denso are much better. NGK are only good for a paper wight and there not very good at that, they are a total waste of money and time using them.
