  1. 13 volts is not enough, it should be within the range 13.9 to 14.7 volts. Have you hard wired the 3 wires from the stator directly to the reg rectifier & the remaining wires direct to the battery, not through the old wiring loom?
  2. I stopped doing that a few years ago when I tasted a mystery liquid near the front wheel of my bike. It was cat piss
  3. Thought it might be the lightweight version
  4. No drawings I'm afraid. I just measured the hole pitch in the casing, drilled them & then marked out the material to be removed on the aluminium block. Then just freehand milling until everything looked right. The bracket that holds the cable outer is a separate piece that slides into hole in the main bracket& is held by a grub screw.
  5. This may be the case but I'm sure that the huge advances in tyre technology will mean much greater forces acting on 40 year old frames which may mean they need some additional help. You only have to look at classic TT lap times to see that something has changed.
  6. If you are machining the block to achieve zero deck height, is this with the base gasket included in that calculation? Do you have a piston to head clearance (squish) figure in mind? In my experience you have to build the motor, measure & then machine to get it right
  7. The lift figures match those in the Suzuki manual for gsxr1100k which is reassuring.
  8. In that case it needs to be 0.036" to include the base gasket
  9. You probably need to do the charging mod that is stickied at the top of this page to prevent over voltage killing it
  10. Are you sure about the compressed head gasket figure? Doesn't seem right to me. I believe the head gasket is 0.7mm, the base 0.2mm
  11. I've had a few replacement sets from ABE & also a set from Poland & a set from China. The quality was great on all of them.
  12. He's saying that you can tune as much as you like but gearing is a ratio that is unaffected by an increase in horsepower.
  13. Interesting. So are you running a different primary gear or modified gearbox?
