  1.  I was talking to  guy that drag races air cooled suzukis and asked him about buttons for pressure plate ( i was gathering lock up parts for my et ) he uses counter sunk stainless screws, just drill and tap plate and locktight them in, he said he had never had a problem and if they wear are eaily replaced.

    85 750 pickup will work, just the right side one doesnt plug into anything. Use the 1127 rotor/trigger wheel. I'd err towards a coil if 2/3 is the issue though

    I didn't know there was only one pick up on these motors , as only ever had early 750's and air cooled 1100. That's why after changing coil and no difference I thought maybe pick up. 

    This afternoon I checked coils with meter. The manual says to set meter at x1Kohms but but the 3 different ones I have go from 200, 2k & so on so set it at 2k and both coils give same readings. Put new plugs in and fired it up starts no problem but tick over is not right sounds like running on 2 .

    If I piss about and get it past 4500 revs it runs on 4 and will rev cleanly but header pipes on 2 & 3 no where near as hot as 1 &4   the coil for 2 & 3 is warm not hot but noticeably warmer than 1 & 4.  

    Anybody any ideas what I should be looking for ?

  3. My 7/11 slabby has been sitting under a cover since last September, I had it about finished and tank started leaking so got that repaired and haven't touched it since, put fuel in it the other day and it fired up straight away but not running right. 1&4 ok as exhaust getting hot 2&3 just warm took tank off and coil for 2&3 was hot so changed coil and tried again but no change so thinking pick ups might be faulty and hopefully not cdi.  So is there a way to test the pick ups ? The only spare pick ups I have are from a 85 750 and as the rotor is different I take it they wont work on 1127 motor.

  4. @TonyGee8mm longer,  sorry didn't reply yesterday got side tacked on another build cos parts turned up, you know what its like 9_9. My Katana had the servo clutch but it has been removed,  servo mounted where the coils normally are.

  5. Can anyone tell me standard main jet size for 1100f bst34mm carbs Mine are 114 wich sounds a bit small to me. I'm still pissing about with pilot settings at mo but looking at the colour of the exhaust it looks like its running lean/hot. Not been able to ride it yet to feel how it pulls.

  6. My slabby project is draining the battery. Fitted new lithion battery and bike started fine, checked all lights etc were working switched it off xnd next morning battery  was flat. Not had time to check it yet was wondering if anyone has had this problem or where to start looking ?

    What make are they ? I usually use Torques UK and on occasion Chinese ones, never had a problem so far. However I did buy a bike last year that had been stud for 10 years and the outer bolts had split with corrosion/age. IMG_20220331_175855.thumb.jpg.0bf90d35f356593b8fad16fb49f9af1f.jpg

    I did look at getting new hose & fittings in black from torques as i'm not a fan of the blue & red anodizing but was going to wait till i had more cash saved but looks like i'll have to get them now:/

  8. Noticed that oil cooler line has started leaking over night, been no sign of it leaking until today 20220330_211202.thumb.jpg.5c1424fc3dd6b1bb8a0e2ea06b128d65.jpg

    Tried tightening it but it wasn't loose. Oils weeping from the bradeed hose right at the union. Any ideas, i haven't used this type of hose before other than brake lines.
