Panos

I know it's almost a month late but i can measure mine tommorow

When i did mine i wanted to use the tube method too but the float covers can't be connected with a tube as they are , so i didn't bother and just measured the floats. One modification i want to do now is fit a brass tube on float covers so i can use the clear tube method , has anybody done this ? I found a video of a guy doing this on bandit carbs but he uses one dedicated float cover for this and blocks the next carb needle which is sharing the same fuel line . I want to have all float covers connected with clear tube so i can set them all equal , in my head this is the best method am i wrong? Tube method at 11:40 in video.

Ok fingers crossed then , thank you Jonny

@jonny1bump If there is a set available for my 40mm carbs can i please have one ?

Measured a fuel line i had 7mm i.d. 11mm o.d.

Yes measure the i.d on the side where they fit on the rubbers on cylinder head , 92 model uses bst 40mm . They are very tricky to tune without an airbox .

If those carbs are 40mm you will need the airbox for them to work .

From GSXR 600K1 through K5 GSXR 750Y through K5 GSXR 1000 through K6 Note that i didnt do a conversion myself just kept notes from others here .

I remember reading in the vault that the valve spacing is different so they can't be interchanged .

I think the article promoting the shim fix was separate from the text above it , i could be wrong though . Most motorcycle magazines are just promoters anyway . Not only have i read @Oilyspannerthread , i have gone through it many times and also kept notes ! And of course the evo bike thread of johnybump , i will copy as much as i can from them . Both awesome projects and goldmine of knowledge When i grow up i wanna be just like them !

Well that makes sense now , never thought these stories were about 750's or 600's . Found and read again the article below and there is no mention of cc's .

Camshaft swap was the reason i got the dot head and also i thought the dot head flowed better than the shim head . Another reason was the shim spitting at high rpm and easier valve adjustment . As far as i have looked i couldn't find any replacement cams for the shim head . Now i am thinking of three options 1 Get the M head converted to screw adjustment (PITA) ,do bigger inlets and porting . This way bst 40 and airbox will fit for sure and the M head (which i already have) gets used . 2 Get a forked head bandit or gsxr 1100 ,do bigger inlets and porting . Probably the rubbers of M head for BST40 match the ports and they are not way off like the dot head and airbox can be used , i hope port heights are the same are they though? 3 Just fit bigger inlets , port the M head and have the cams reprofiled in uk , thats the more sensible option . I am itching for option 1 unless option 2 a bandit head can perform the same and port heights match .

I paid a lot more than 35 for the head , you guys seem to find the best bargains but i am not complaining , still happy i bought it though even if it proves to be a pain in the ass to fit it . That bandit looks super clean and wheelie happy , electrics and battery are hidden underseat ? Looks so tidy very nice

I was afraid of that , i guess i should have asked more before buying it but im still happy to own a dot head hehe . I found gsx750f rubbers which are longer than gsxr ones according to @Dezzasticky about rubbers , should i snatch them ? I would like to keep the airbox too which complicates things more i guess

I think my shim head GSXR uses the same camchain (plain chain not hyvo) as the dot head so i can use the dot head cam wheels but i will do cam dialing for sure . I never dialed cams or calculate compression cc's , valve to piston , or squish measure on 4stroke and i'm looking forward in doing all of these this winter . Carb rubbers im forced to use the shim head ones as i have BST 40mm so maybe thats an issue on the way . Thank you all for the help guys i will pester you with questions again tomorrow as im getting of work now . Thanks again guys
