tuning CV's can be a pain in the ass, my zed needs a bit more tweaking to get perfect (its Nealy their) but on the GS1000 with a B12 engine i'm going down the standard airbox route, its so much easier to tune the airbox to the carbs than tune carbs to pod filters.

it took me 20 minuets to read wraith's post

you forgot after 20 years !!!! Christ i forget shit after 20 fecking minuets

you can always give it to me and i'll finish it

yep B6 is cable clutch

plenty of good used taps around with a lever and with ON and RESERVE, just make sure they are the same hole spacing.

in the word's of Bob Ross "we don't make mistakes we have happy accidents"

I used a shaftie frame on my 2nd Zed build, way more room for a wide swingarm and plenty of chain clearance at the pivot point

that would be a good upgrade for a GS850 but it would need some mechanical knowledge got me thinking now

Start by getting a new battery and check the small earth wire comming off the main battery lead. It has a spade connector.

put it on PRI ( prime) and then try it.

Ive heard you can still get them in black but i think they would sell well if they made them is chrome or stainless, had one on an old zed, looked the dogs.

looks like a cut n shut !!!!!

that wont help

ive seen many bikes run sweet but when you look at the spark it looks week !!!! could it be a fuelling problem ?

does it run good or is their an issue ?

yeah agree, I don't get this cafe racer thing ? but each to their own

sorry Mike can't help, I haven't got one to measure and don't know if its the same size as the bandit oil piece.

yes you can if you are trying to rule out a faulty fuel tap, but when done don't leave it on prim

yes its just a vacuum tap. no RES or ON position, but using a screwdriver you can use prime

I also bought one for my Katzuma project, reasonable price for a new genuine part

OOPS !!!!! yeah it can be welded

probably

would of been interested if i didn't have my GS project but i think baldrick might !!!!!

the little spade connector coming off the main earth next to the battery can cause all kinds of problems if corroded, if you put a bandit into gear and it cuts out when the neutral light goes out first thing to check is that spade connection.
