I think thats a B12 top yoke, B6 handlebar clamps are part of the casting.

got an old gear lever and cut it down, had to flatten it a bit but looks better than the bodgy one i made. 55mm hole centres if anyone is interested. the only drawback is i have no freeplay at the clutch lever to stop the drag but no slip when wound on.

I'm pretty sure they are Toni but can't 100% guarantee

is that a new type of butt plug !!!!

what about a short timesert ? if its short enough it should lock in place and with the aid of some locktite.

I make my own, just buy the hose and fittings then you can get them exact.

what airfilter setup are you using ?

hope you didn't pay to much for it !!!! good project though

had a bit of an idea, gona find a gear lever that'll fit the splines and cut it down to length. might look a bit better.

its a shame they don't make em anymore

yeah saw them, will need some TLC though

update, finally got round to fitting the home made clutch arm, and its made a big difference. i can now pull the clutch with 2 fingers but better with 4 really happy with it as I was thinking of changing the engine or selling the bike as it was pretty painful. but now its a joy to ride just need some warmer weather now will make or buy a better looking arm at some point.

yep

yeah i agree things are different under load but it'll get your mixtures in the right ballpark, it does say in the instructions to go through the rev range !!! my old XS11 had a small flat spot at 3-4000rpm and i could see it was running weak with the colourtune, so lifted the needles and the flat spot has gone with a nice blue flame. it takes the guess work out of it and at £40 its a dam sight cheaper than a dyno run for us who are skint

yeah got it off the bay £40 new. they are a good bit of kit and can help get your mixture set right through the rev range. have you got another exhaust system to try on ?

how does the bike run ? has it still got an airbox ? an exhaust change or an end can doesn't really make much difference, ive just bought myself a colourtune to set mine up, works a treat.

750 will drop straight in, 1100/1200 engines are a bit taller though.

they will, also the tanks but not the front mudguards

I get my seat covers off begay, theirs a seller on their that sells good quality covers but not cheap, ive had a few off them but at £45 a time. just as good as OEM i think.

the best part is trying to drill the hole in the right place

they won't stay tight on the bars, you need to drill for the peg. or wrap tape round the bars. ive used some shim steel in the past, you can get it in sheets.

I think widening the original wheels is a good idea (if its possible) as it makes the bike more OEM but with the benefit of better tyres. but far easier to fit modern wheels.

yeah i know what you mean about the US spec smaller GSX tank, the larger GSX UK tank works with a GS 1000 tail unit like on my bike. but the GS1000G tank will look ok.

other than the harness its got me !!!!
