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

My efe engined bike still runs a 1980s LeDAR kit in its otherwise stock BS36 carbs. A whole lot cheaper and simpler than a Dynorod kit, and the bike runs perfectly without the airbox and a 4 into 1. Unfortunately Leon Moss died before he got round to doing kits for GSXRs
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

Expensive stuff that you can re-spaced. I've seen fcr39's fitted to a bimota SB6
Yeh I realise that. Cheers
But what stock Suzuki carbs with nothing more than an inlet rubber swap.

What other carbs fit ?. TIA

or
FA613

Same pad but different thickness

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

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)

Ask @gsxr884for prices & info
I have left my JT sprocket catalogue in the unit so cant find the JT 520 versions till tomorrow when I go in , Renthal do a 520 conversion but I may be able to find JT which will keep the cost down

That's not a slabby tap.
Looks like a slingshot dual outlet tap , main /reserve switching takes place inside the tap and always feeds both outlets .Straight feeds 1 & 2 bent 3&4

I have just been talking to Robert Scott so I will have my CP Racetec Braided hoses stand there.
I will try to get my 884 RK and 884M up and rideable for the event too .
My Plan is to arrive on Wednesday evening

Easiest route is a gas flow 3 angle cut and a 771 kit and then some proper carbs matched to a decent exhaust

Lighter is better, but a lower crown could prove to be an issue I guess
Yes there may be some compensation required regarding block height
cam chain length/tensioner blades will be a problem if you shorten the block longer rods may be required ,once I have measured the pistons I will let you know

I have spoken about this before but haven't got around to mocking up an engine yet.
2011 on I think ZX10R pistons are lightweight slipper 76mm so would give 884 on a 749
Gudgeon pins I think are 15mm possibly 16 I will have a measure.
I have a set of 884 pistons to measure the ZX10R pistons against for pin to crown height and compare weight , I think the crown will be lower and they will be a LOT lighter

I can supply the tube and I have guys that I use to swap the knuckle over as it can be troublesome.
Even experienced guys cant do them all without stripping the thread in the knuckle
RK ignition

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