I’ve ran Flatslides off/on for years on my 1216 bandit. Two fuel pipes on the carbs into a T then one single upto the tap with a vacuum as per standard. Flows fine and works perfectly

My knees are right against the ridge on the side of the tank instead of below them , I don’t think they are meant for 6’2 people

My knees don’t fit the tank on them , it’d be down to bare metal within 6 months

I’ve had loads of rs carbs and tbh honest fancy something a bit more refined

There was a thread not long back with someone who’d fitted all 3 back to back on the dyno with a gsxr750 race bike . Has anyone got a link ? Tempted to bite the billet on a set of tmr’s

I’ll be up for it

Unless I get asked to put a collection of blandits in the marquee again i'm up for it. Even if I do get asked I may not bother lol

I'd go with hanging throttle , I also had issues using the 1200 throttle cables. 600 ones are straight so run into the carb much easier

What you struggling with ?

My love hate relationship with flatslides continues , I’ve picked up a clean set of 36’s that all being well will be going on my 1216 bandit. Previously I’ve had 38’s on it which were slightly lean on 135’s so were fitted with137.5’s just to be on the safe side. Does anyone have any settings for 36’s on a 1216 just as a base setting , I’m tempted to start with 135’s

Is it worth it ? Probably not. Does it add weight ? Maybe a little . Does it look gorgeous ? Definetly :-)

I tried a few different lengths of pushrod and the original bandit one is the correct length

Push rod fits and works fine , sprocket cover obviously fits the engine but needs a little trimming at the rear to clear the bandit frame .

About as much use as tits on a fish ain’t you :-)
