You would have to contact him for a price, but I think his RZ350 tanks are around 1200 usd

Wintergreen only makes them soft for a while, then they go hard again

What plugs are you using?
There have been a lot of fakes around lately, some even from reputable suppliers.
Very frustrating, I feel your pain.

If you are getting hot in traffic on warmer days you would be better off fitting a small fan to your existing cooler.

Even more reason to swap 1100s into everything and run RS carbs I guess.
Thats the spirit

N712 should be a bandit 600.
N= 500-599cc
7= 4 cyl 4 stroke
12 = 12 incarnation of that series of engine..
The rest is the identifier- 2

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.

ACC Billet in South Africa makes really nice looking ones among other cool stuff.

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.
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.

Cruzinimage is a Japanese company quite well known for cheap priced parts. They have a webpage as well as Eblag
Lot of guys on other sites im on run their two stroke pistons with no issues.

put your bike and the donor bike info in here for bearing sizes. Stem length info not incl here.

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?

They may be overkill, but it is very convenient to order the correct size tapered bearings from all balls fork swap site when adding a new front end to your bike though.

I've found that a light coat of black RTV helps them release better than grease.
Scraping off old gasket has to be one of my very least favourite jobs.

Would Katana or Slabby forks work?

What is the oil level currently in the motor?

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.
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?

added info
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
