I have RS36's on my 1170 Kat with velocity stacks and Ramair socks and I had to go up a size on the pilots and run the larger jets.

Nope. My Kat handles way way better with the 6" rear, braced frame, modern forks and brakes than it did with the factory bits.

6" real looks the buisness on a Kat. SRAD 600 swingarm does not have a brace, so A SRAD 750 braced arm will look better in my opinion. I widened my frame, drilled out the pivot points and used the SRAD pivot bosses when I installed mine, so the chain clears easily. Taking your bike apart to notch the frame now is going to be a lot of work

I gave up trying to use the vacuum ports on the carbs. My motor is aircooled so there are easier to get to ports on the head. I was going to add a short piece of hose to each nipple on the carb sticking up enough to easily get at while tuning and then put vacuum caps on the lines.

I believe that the owner of CMR retired and the Cox Customs guy used to work for him and set up his own shop now.

Cox Custom Fabrication and Welding in Trenton Ontario, Canada

I like to slide a piece of cardboard inbetween the head and the studs after I lift it up so that I dont gouge the gead while fiddling to get it out

I've had two Chinese front wheels that I bought without looking close enough that were not true. I did use the chinese disk rotors off them, and they are not too bad

The manual that came with my RS carbs telly you to bench sync before installing to get them in the ballpark, and then use a vacuum gauge to set them while running. Those little carb top screws can be really hard to find if you drop one. Ask me how I know.

There is a mirror attachment on the top that gives you a crappy view down the tube at a 90 degree angle from the plug

Every now and then he advertises a complete frame for sale. Walk in, pay the man and walk out with your new bling is the way to go.

I have a china GSXR ignition switch on one of my bikes for over two years now and it works fine. Got it with some other parts I bought so I dont know what it cost originally, but it is definitely not oem

Yup, the RS stands for rattle slides
