  1. I have a temp sender by my oil pressure switch, and on hot days going slow in traffic it gets up around 120 quite easily even with a oil cooler. spark plug temp sender is usually about 20 deg higher

  2. Looking for some help to figure out what cam is in my 1150 efe motor.

    I was told it is a Web cam, but no details available. Adjuster screws are not stock either as they use an allen key .z5.thumb.jpg.9cad8676045022a63c2e6669d8bdd0b4.jpgz6.thumb.jpg.6962e8ba669655a383a04ebce01e9d21.jpgz4.thumb.jpg.8b105fab0c83aad4b9d8a7a172c5ed5d.jpgz3.thumb.jpg.c3757a735772e163b4e45ce6b8b5665b.jpgz2.thumb.jpg.89932413966bdea1440de0365ddeb349.jpgz1.thumb.jpg.8b7452d3afeb09f4c06c269db39c4cdc.jpg

    This ^
    I’ve been watching spares / parts for quite a while and whilst big Suzuki IL4 stuff has always had some value it’s certainly a bit salty now.  Demand and prices climbed and held strong. I’ve looked for front ends but they are never cheap or local anymore. 

    Ill ship you mine from Canada

    if they are the ones with the antidive then no one will want them unless someone is doing a resto. :/  ive got a set i dont want. 

    The Kat antidive units seem to be worth quite a bit in Australia. But then stock Kats sell for crazy money over there.

  5. I recently bought a 83 750e motor sight unseen. I was told it was an 1100, but it was cheap.

    Are there any parts from this that can be used on a GSX1100 or 1150EF motor?. I know the valve covers are the same.aff.thumb.jpg.2722ac98a29438b8f33ac0639274a993.jpg

    There is a lot of info that I can find regarding oil cooled parts comparability, but not air cooled.

    Yea…. Just as I thought… will get him to gently vapour blast it and paint it with something…

    chz 

    Vapor blasting is not a good start for paint as it seals the surface and leaves it very smooth. Rather get it soda blasted.

  7. I'm setting up my Koso gauge on my now running Katana 1100 and need some input on what to set the temperature warning lights to.

    I have an oil temp sensor and a head temp sensor hooked up.

    For the oil I was going to set the warning at 270f (130deg C).

    What does the cylinder head get to? Is 400f (2-- deg C) too much?

     

    Stock crank with 1170 kit installed. What should I keep the max revs to? under 10k?

  8. Just picked this up today because I dont have enough junk in my garage.

    Got some engine problems that will need sorted. Supposedly has crank issues.thunail.thumb.jpg.87f33796f7f7be909ad53f3ac031c58d.jpgthbnail.thumb.jpg.7d45a599b6683af520e1777c464ce02b.jpg

    Thinking braced swingarm, K4 front end, no fairing and a much smaller tail.

    With a different swingarm, is there enough space for chain clearance to run a 6" rear wheel?
