  1. the easiest option would be 600 bandit wheels, you will need to have the rear sprocket carrier machined down and move the front sprocket further out to get the chain in line and a 530 chain conversion. then you will need a GS500 rear calliper and hanger so you can use the OEM torque arm.

    you can squeeze a B6 front wheel in between the forks with just enough clearance with the B6 disc's, spindle sizes are different though. then you'll have to make a calliper mount bracket for what ever callipers you use.  B6 speedo drive might be too wide so will need machining down a few mm. 

    using B12 wheels is a lot more work as they are wider O.o

  2. when i put a GSX1100 engine in my 750ET i checked the compression and wasn't great but all where equal, it even chuffed a bit of smoke out on cold starts now and then, I know the engine had been stood for a long time, but after a few 100 miles the compression has increased to over 140psi and it seems to of stopped chuffing oil out.  O.o it also runs better than it did when i first got it. 

    food for thought.

    Yeah, there are in the other engines but I guess they were lost/forgotten when this one went back together.

    worth getting a pair i think, also will keep the gasket straight.

    I get that the frames are different (and unfortunately so, as the Mk frames are much more aesthetically pleasing) but those fairing stays all stem (no pun) at the headstock. So if the fair stays bolt directly up, everything else falls into place.

     

    yeah the front frame mounts will be in the same place, but the 2 left and right mounts you will probably have to make ???   not a job ive ever done, but any bandit ive had with a fairing ive taken it of and binned :D

    Anyone happen to know if the Mk1 fairing will bolt on to the K Bandits? The projector lamps on the K-S are horrible. I have an N top clamp so maybe I'll just remove the fairing. Need to do something soon for light. It's a must. It's still dark when I leave for work, otherwise I wouldn't care.

    it won't be a direct fit as the frames are different, but nothing is impossible ;)
