yep, a GSX750/1100 1980-82 fit the B12 wheel. I used one on mine (GSX750ET) also an offset front sprocket needed.

the cases are a matched pair so should stay together, but I bet someone has done it

If the seal has a lip on the outer edge then its a crank case split

was the seal OEM or after market ?

its not about being complicated its I have a problem with reading numbers

there you go with bloody maths again

to avoid any cockups I just buy the longest chain I can find, then just chop it down to size. I don't do maths

you do know the US spec bikes will only do 80 mph anyway !!!!!

Awe poor 600's

when i did mine i got it as tight as feck, also used locktite and peened it as well, if that nut comes off it can make a mess

yeah make sure the nut is tight and secure !!!!

yeah, looking at the genny cover it does look like the later EF !!!!!

I assume you are using balance gauges ? if so raise the idle more till the carbs level out.

that sounds drastic Ash !!!!!!!

sorry i misread your post reading isn't my strong point

It could be a tiny stone or something !!!!! how many times have you seen bits of crap round a spark plug ? and when you take it out the crap falls in to the combustion chamber

yeah, it looks the same as my engine 83. should have a welded crank

the carriers are not interchangeable from B6 to b12. 5 rubbers Vs 6 rubbers

yeah, the B12 is very slightly longer but not much. i found that out when i put a B12 swinger in a B6 as the chain was to short enough but I put a smaller rear sprocket on to get a bit more top end and use the chain it had on it.

im pretty sure a B12 wheel will fit in a B6 swinger as they are the same width !!!! but better to use a B12 swinger as well, stiffer and looks better.

ive used D&K many times, yeah they are not cheap but pretty good too me !!!!!!

not cheap !!!!! and why do they take bits off it just to make a few more quid Suzuki GSX1100 ET ES S Katana 1980-1983 Engine GSX110X163669 | Eblag

I bet the knobhead was on their phone glad you are ok

in theory yes, ive seen them run for years with teeth missing with no problems, but if it was mine i wouldn't be able to sleep at night worrying about it

no need, worked on many of em
