  1. Little update... suspension in, brake discs on way, couple of spacers being made for rear wheel, but the rest of it is in. Lots of spacers and bearings and things replaced... engine will go in next week. It's got some nice red Samcos on it too!
  2. Well, slowly the build is taking shape... from a dead frame and water-filled rather than water-cooled engine... we’re making progress
  3. How are those builds going? I got the forks into mine, and have all the various spacers and stuff made up to get the swinging arm in. Engine is back from engine builder, bodywork ordered...
  4. Ah excellent. Did you have any luck with those spacer sizes?
  5. Yeah, looking in to that... hard task! Not yet finding any sealed bearings, only crankshaft bearings in the correct size... gonna be a specialist thing. These conversations always get expensive. lol
  6. How did you get around the spindle size difference? (Sorry for all the questions, just getting to that stage of the build!)
  7. Interesting, how'd you see a spacer working? Wouldn't I also need revised bearings?
  8. Hey Andy, where did you get to on the bodywork? So far I've only managed to find Airtech (USA, very expensive to ship from) and Ragged Edge (not taking bookings) who can provide it. You had any luck with other providers?
  9. OK, checked part umbers from Suzuki for the 600 and the 750, they're the same! Good news. if you'd be able to check those rear wheel spacer sizes, I'd be very grateful! Cheers mate, thanks for your help.
  10. Thanks Joesph... is the K7 750 wheel also 5.5, or just the K7 600 wheel? (Someone local is selling one and has it listed as 600/750). Also, you mention 4 spacers - you wouldn't happen to have sizes for those would you?
  11. Does anyone know if a K7 rear wheel will fit a 1995? I'm putting a K7 front end on (which is all sorted), but might prefer to match the rear. I'm fine if it's a question of spacers, I just don't want to get into machining the hub. Also: spindle width? Does anyone know it on either model?
  12. Lovely, I am also building a replica of the same Suzuka bike! Gorgeous isn’t it?
