I posted Carl's winged hammers out to him today and moved this thread into the race section.
Send us some pictures when he gets the stickers on.
Welcome to the winged hammers Carl. May Hanmashin's mighty hammer propel you to many victories.

Hey Gary, I need to send Carl some winged hammers for the bike. PM your address.

Not bad for a bike that's been as well used as the old scratcher @clivegto

Great pictures. What were the numbers?

I read the through this and was about to reply to check the gear selector linkage for a foul and I noticed you found it.
Don't ask me how I know.
Amusing to see how many people had you stripping your gearbox when no-one had asked whether the gear selector shaft would allow a gear change when directly operated without the linkage.

RS36 will work fine out of the box on a B12 motor with a 130 main and a push pull throttle. Fit velocity stacks and socks to get the induction right.
You can turn accelerator pumps off if you like but if you adjust them to squirt as it starts to pick up off the cam around 5-K it's a nice kick in the pants.
You'll do more for low down torque by fitting adjustable cam sprockets and spreading the lobe centres slightly or getting some porting done.
You don't need 38s on a standard B12 motor IMHO

If money is no object the Keihin FCRs bolt straight on. Alternatively YZF750 and maybe FZ1000 are also mikuni downdraft like the RF.

For all the aggro, cussing and swearing, you may as well yank the whole engine, then more space and less chance of dropping shit down the chain tunnel. Couple of mates + beer (after its out) = easy job!
+1 for engine out. It's not a big job if there are a couple of you. It will make the repair so much easier.

Festival of power. Just recovered! Number 1 qualifier, bye in round 1, beat by Paul Adams in round 2. It was close but I could and should have made it closer. Still learning that things happen differently at 149mph than 125mph. Couple of boggy starts messed up my consistency a bit and made a couple of adjustments for the run which meant the Kat flew, running a second pb of 8.85 while rolling off sometime before the finish. Had a great time with all the usuall guys and girls at the event. Well done to Philip Pratt for the great win and Matt the chop Jones for an amazing event. Thanks obvs to my crew, Carl, Marie, Jon, George and Dave.
Well done Gary!

Legend has it that if you want to raise the ride height of the 750 slabside you can fit an 1100 cushion lever and gain 40mm.
Anyone who has tried it may tell you it's not that straightforward.
Fortunately Mark Stokes AKA @Funkymonkracinghas produced a handy video on how it's done.

Yeah, could do. @cullinoc might bring the part built GIA too.
