  1. PS looking foreword to seeing some pics
  2. B6 is a bit soft, but put some gsx600f springs in, on the b6 front end. I had and that helped you can also put a rf600 front wheel strate in the b6 front end and that will give you the 120 tyre (same discs and calipers and I think the mk2 b6 has the wider rim). You do have to swop bottom yoke spindle on the b6 and b12 as they are much longer than the GS ones, or have it turned down, you may need to on the gsx1100g ? Someone could tell you that if you ask All I did on my bike was make up a 20mm ( I think) spacer that went between the top yoke and bearing nut. I've got a Delkevic zorst on my gs1000g at the moment and I'm very happy with it, not a high performance zorst like a V&H is but for the money they are good.
  3. If I remember right the kit comes as a stage 1-3 and you just put more bits in your carbs out of the box but always worth checking
  4. I did a z650 with a gsx750f 00 model in it with matching carbs, I put a Dyna jet kit stage 3 in it and was very happy first time just did what the kit said to do. I think it was 144 mains but it was 10 years ago
  5. Yes, dose sound familiar As to your front end, how about a gsx1100g, good long forks and the wheel looks simular to the VX800 rear.
  6. Hope your parts come in soon for you Cheers for the complement on my bike that was its first build using a gsx750es tank, gsx1100efe front end and a vx800 rear wheel, then I went to town on it (pics on other computer but bet you've seen it ) put the ntv650 single side swing arm in it, gs650 kat tank one off rear end and a b6 front end with a very tuned motor but because of the tank every body though it was the 650 good in one way Its now back to standard ish Was going to put the 250 tyre think it was a 8" rim on it off a modern Suzuki custom but decided it was to much hassle to make a new swing arm and shaft for it I'm thinking of putting the gs550/750 tail piece and light on it (there a bit smaller) and see how many people call it a 550 So what's your plans ?
  7. Here you go This is with the vx800 rear wheel with a 160 tyre.
  8. That's a good idea, as found the pic
  9. Have got a hard copy pic of when I first did the first mods to it, if I can figger out how to put it up I will
  10. Ps, if you use the gs850 rear driver hub on the 1000 it gives you a bit more bottom end exl and gs750 cams will make it rev quicker , b12 carb rubbers will fit onto the 1000 cv head and you can then put b12/gsxr carbs on And its been 101 years I've had my gs g keep saying in going to sell it to found a new project but always find away/reason not to sell
  11. The VX800 fits, helps to take off the rear drive hub to put the wheel in, as it's a bit tite (but I had a 160 tyre on it should of been a 150) I also used the xv800 rear caliper, wheel spacer and hanger. The gsx1100g will fit but with much more missing about.
  12. Hope this puts you in the right direction
  13. I have a set of wc on my oil cooled Kat, they work very well but are a real pain to get on.
  14. Carbs on modified bikes, always a source of fun
  15. Yes the clutch but needed to be tight, very tight If I remember most of the time you will need, or it helps to have the clutch holding tool to get the right torque or the nut may come undone.
  16. I did the same, but with a gsxr1100 (1052cc) so I know how you feel.
  17. Some say it won't be a problem but I'd just stick to one type of jet in the same bank of carbs, just saved any problems And if I remember right, the dynojet jets are smooth around the sides but there is a key that's the same size but has a line around the side and that is a different jet with different sizing as well.
  18. Don't think the gsxr motor will rev as high with the b12 cdi, it will run ok but I believe the rev limited lower on the b12 than in the gsxr.
  19. You may find that the standard type jets and the dynojet, even if they say the same size on them there are not, dynojet sizing is different to standard jet sizing. Did have a diagram somewhere with it all on i will try and find it. Your always best staying with ever standard jets or dynojets you know where you are then

    Cam cover bolts

    Sorry, my misstate.

    Cam cover bolts

    Yes they where good when they started, and the man and his wife starters it had a very nice Harris, but when he died she tried to keep it going but ended up selling the business and it went down hill quickly from there.

    Did not say they where cheep, just they had them Once they where the place to go for all your oil kits, oil line ends, bits and pieces etc etc but after they seemed to go tits up they just seem to be dear, but I've got some bits off them in the past and the quality is good.
  23. Cheers for the info, I don't think most standard pipes flow that well compared to the likes of a Akro or Yoshi it's not going on a 14 but a b12 motor and I'm not looking for high performance more looks
