    Am I assuming right that the gaskets need replacing?

    It depends on where its leaking, if its leaking inside the venturi of the carb then its likely to be the float valve, if its coming from the top of the float bowl (where the gasket is) then it could be the gasket, but if the carbs are sat upright (float bowl horizontal) the fuel shouldn't get that far up !!!!  also check the pipes connecting the carbs together.

    Would an 1100 Aircooled engine fit into a GS550 frame, or is an oil boiler an easier option? 

    I would think it'll be tight Toni !!!!   an oil cooled engine would be a better bet.  but only guessing :/ 

    my mate squeezed a B12 engine in a Kat 400 frame but had to modify it. 

    anything is possible ;)

    Blanking plate set sold along time ago sorry!!

    IMG_20220224_114605.thumb.jpg.b8a1cd4c9680b51cd402dc69b72290cc.jpgHere's a anti dive I filled with silicone back in the80s

    Would not recommend it, god i was a dum arse O.o

    no oil or brake fluid will come out of the top part of the antidive (where the hose bolts too) you can take the top part off with hoses still attached as both parts have a seal, it keeps both fluids separate.  ive disconnected the small hose from the calliper on mine and just put a plastic plug in for now just to keep the crap out.

  5. thats a can of worms opened :/   if you are talking an oil cooled engine then "IMO" only,,,,  then yeah i prefer the feel of a cable,  all you need is a front sprocket cover/cable/clutch lever and probably the 600 push rod.

    Thanks for the replies,  its about 1.5mm longitudinal movement, another problem to sort out o.O

    I wouldn't worry about it, the output shaft bearing ( behind the sprocket ) has a C ring so the bearing will not move, the other end of the shaft is a needle roller.  and as I said when the sprocket nut is tight their will be no movement.

    Hey !

    I tried 2 other identical ECUs with no success the other day (before i replaced the coil loom that i thought had solved the issue fully), so i ruled out the ECU ?

    I have just checked continuity from the coil wires engine side to the coil ECU plug on the ECU side and it checks out 

    :|

    have you looked for Gremlins ???   them fuckers get everywhere o.O   

  8. A few people have had success with this and back in the 80's I did an experiment with it.  I had a 4 cylinder chop (gsx1100 engine) and the mid range was fecking crap so......   what I did was wrap some tape round the 4 filters about half way and it worked, bike ran sweet as.  their was a guy who did the same thing on his bike on a forum but he did the mod on the inside of the filter so the filter looked normal. now is it restricting the air flow or stabilizing it ???????  don't know, all i know it worked :)
