  1. Howdy fellas

    As you may have seen in my Slabby thread, I'm currently stripping a few engines I got. 

    the plan is I want to build a decent motor, which will be fed by 750l 38mm carbs and have a full cobra system. 

    So I am looking for any advice or tips or indeed modifications I should be doing whilst I'm in there. 

    I have a vast amount of spares now which is at least 4 of everything, but I'm stripping down to measure and check everything before I put one together.

     

    Thanks in advance

    George

    What model 750 frame was reputed to be the best for handling, and is there that much difference between the 750 & 1100 frames?

    Was always maintained the 750 was the better frame as it didnt have the removable downtube

    Getting to old for kneeling down nowadays so this evening I knocked up a bike bench from some scaffold board a mate gave me, some 4x4 fencing and a old railway sleeper. IMG_20210913_190729.thumb.jpg.b9c78f4cfba1c09e168423b6db9e737d.jpg IMG_20210913_181531.thumb.jpg.fce90f6b7d301374c33898e99b4b6338.jpg  IMG_20210913_191506.thumb.jpg.e3a4dc64d45a97bcfd113c709663daa9.jpg

    Dezza , no your not missing anything.  I think there has been a bit of confusion throughout this thread and I've added to it by misunderstanding your reply when you quoted  " the cdi produces sparks ............. ".   I took this to mean this is what the CDI unit SHOULD do, whereas you were basically quoting what i had described !!

    Durrrrrrrr !  Thank you for your input , much appreciated.  I may swap the loom for a B12 ( winter project ) as old gsxr parts are getting hard to find.

     

    GeorgeE17KO:   Cheers for the info , do you know of anyone who repairs these units ?

    if you can get it apart without totally fucking it up is more of an issue. I've repaired a few in my time. If memory serves isn't there a place in London that repairs ECU's? Be worth asking them. https://www.carmoelectronics.co.uk/index.php?main_page=page&id=11

    That's different, hopefully the from muddy won't smack it on full compression. Looks class though man...

  7. First port of call would be the ignition pickup, and make sure all is tickety boo there and work yer way back. Could even be something as daft as the contacts on the kill switch. With electrickery, anything is possible...

    Yes it is a great starting point, just need a pile of cash to sort it out and make it shiny, might have to flog the teapot to pay for it thoughO.o

    Seeing as you threw it down the track recently, I'll give you 50 quid for it..... Ha!

I fixed myn to the forks, there's only 10mm movement with the oil lines which is nowt when you start to think about a JCB back arm. 

    I just love the bug eyes on that Clive!!
