I have Racetechs they work well, if you're reasonably mechanically inclined and have a drill press you can install them yourself. If you're looking to keep an oem appearance this is a good way to go. Both my rides are equipped with Racetech I installed one set myself and had the mechanic who does my important work install the other set as I was too lazy. My mechanical wizard worked on the WoldSBK circuit and now just North American said Racetech is a wonderful bit of kit and I'd need to go to inverted forks before I find something better. And that was unbiased praise as he personally knows the Racetech boss and thinks he's a prick. Are there other systems mentioned as good possibly but going with the opinion of a professional tuner seemed like the safe way to proceed.

There was an oem wider wheel option for the GS1150...a forum member on another site offered to sell them to me. I don't know if that was a common option or just a USA option, the wheels were black and not the gold I was looking for, in hindsight I could've painted them gold.

I no longer approach speeds of 180kph + so my 16' works perfectly fine. If I were to switch it would be to a later 17" to shave some weight and better selection of tires.

I bought mine from Ricks. https://ricksmotorsportelectrics.com/l/rectifier-regulators

I made a purchase not long ago same problem, no product. Sent email asking when my product would be shipped email response back was "We're busy" . I contacted Paypal and got funds applied back to my credit card.

Cruzinimage has a spotty reputation, I've heard reports of them being total arseholes who refuse to make good on faulty products. Yet I've friend who bought big bore kit from them with no issues at all. The price is certainly tempting about $700 less than I paid form my Wiseco kit. If you purchase with Paypal you have recourse for refund.

you get extra points for that challenge. There's always a way.

I don't lose any sleep over it and just accept the frame is going to be scratched. I have a can of touch up paint ready to fix any scratches.

There is the rear motor mount to contend with going in from the left on the efe. It's a problem for removal as well so it goes back in the same way it comes out on the right.

Removed it on my own as well it took the best part of an afternoon. Tipped it all on it's side then attached a ratchet strap to the ceiling to aid lifting the frame up . Required a lot back and forth wiggling to coax the engine out there isn't a lot of clearance. May recruit a couple son in laws to drop frame back over engine.

all good then. I can't recall where exactly but there is a section of the forum where you introduce yourself and tell us about your Suzuki affliction/obsession. Lots of pictures please!

Ya those are the rules. Please understand them. Don't be put off by sometimes rough reception and humour this is a good place and so are the members despite their rough edges and humour. Welcome!

Did you choose the Cerakote finish for the Hindles? Cerakote was an extra $300, the SS finish was $749.

OEM headers that I have hanging in my garage weigh 35lbs, they were replaced by 4-2-1 headers weighing in at 10lbs with muffler for $749 cdn. Unless someone has an oem system laying about and donates them to you for free it's worthwhile to spend the cash and get a new system. I'm okay to sell my oems but shipping a large 35lb box from Canada could be pricey. I love my Hindle's but losing the centre stand is a compromise some people don't care for, for me it was another 3lbs lost. https://www.ripplerockracers.com/product/suzuki-gs11001150-hindle-stainless-steel-exhaust-systems-to-fit-1980-85/

Unless you're building a track bike RS is all you require for good street performance, 36RS on my efe
