gsxr884

The RK engine is an updated Long Stroke 749 (slabby)rather than the short stroke 748 used in the J/K Slingshots

I don't think they changed the ignition set up , they relocated the oil pressure switch from behind the cover so they could use a chamfered cover for better ground clearance

It would be rude to refuse such a kind offer

Leon did do kits for GXR's, he used my mates 750K to do an exhaust and carb kit, the carb kits are a lot more involved than just being a simple ACK though. He did an 1100K for Mark Forsythe too. He did 750 Slabbies too but I don't recall what they needed. Summer 1990 when he died, I remember it like it was yesterday

Yeh I realise that. Cheers But what stock Suzuki carbs with nothing more than an inlet rubber swap.

What other carbs fit ?. TIA

Premier Inn West again is it then . Already booked mine

Couple of BMW pads that are close and may work with a bit of trimming FA294 81x45.9x7.7 or FA613 81x45.9x9.4 Same pad but different thickness

fa187 68x54x8

Its a late 81 so I have to wait a bit yet . Well it was imported to the UK and registered in 97 so DVLA gave it a manufactured date of December 81 bastards. If I could prove earlier I would get onto them to change it. I have a Big Tank to go on but it needs a bit of work

Just had this old girl out again after doing the carbs. I really had forgotten just how much fun these things are to scoot around on

Thats my 750 et onthe road for the 1st time since i bought her in 2015. Pissed through the MOT but is running rich. Pulled the carbs , float valve seat seals hard and horrible, float heights at 20mm , spec is 24+/-1 lol and fuel tap is free flowing when it shouldn't. Carb repair kits and a new fuel tap that doesn't break the bank ordered. Tap repair kit for the old tap so i can put that on my BIG tank when I get it painted. Once the carbs are sorted its oil & Filter time and new tyres are required, front is a 2003 and rear a 2007 . Pic is of the bike as I bought it. It's still the same but the exhaust will be going for something a bit more fruity. Slabby 750 next ,then the 884M then the 884RK ,order subject to change depending a number of factors.

I can normally find sprockets to convert most things to 530,525,520

884 kit on a 749 is a 76mm bore, same as an 1127. I use 1127 head gaskets for mine , either OEM or Athena with a thin application of Wurth Flange sealer(or Wellseal) as recommended by Richard Albans at TTS

Brake hoses are on the way (Y)
