Hi folks, I’ve got a efe and I’m thinking of using a Dyna 2000 ignition . My original cod is dead and a genuine Suzuki replacement is about the same as the Dyna system. I’ve got the Dyna coils and leads , so my question is are the Dyna system worth the money or should I buy an original. I’ve done a few mods which may be relevant, new valves and guides , springs retainers 1230 pistons rs36 carbs new clutch I have some web cams waiting to go in at some point with new rockers to suit. Any advise is much appreciated

Thanks kiwi I’ll give them a try

Hi , does anyone know if you can still buy a Vance and Hines pipe for a 1150 efe, I can’t find one anywhere so any help wold be much appreciated,

Problem solved, I recently lined the inside of the tank and unknowingly filled the breather hole with tank liner and because it’s clear I couldn’t see it was blocked, runs fine now it’s been cleared.

Good afternoon, finally got round to painting the tank and plastics now I just need a new set of tank rubbers, however they seem to be unobtainable, any ideas.

I haven’t fitted the new carbs as yet because I need new rubbers and filters , I’d like to solve the issue first , mostly for peace of mind and also I’d like to sell to old carbs as fully working plus I have a whole load of other parts to fit and I wanted to do everything at the same time during a full strip down over the next winter.

Just took the fuel cap apart and cleaned it , as yet I haven’t had time to go for a ride. Some time ago I bought a new set of rs36 carbs but I’d like to solve this issue in case it’s something else, then I’ll change the carbs and rubbers .

I’m having some problems with my gsx 1100ef 86 model, so I go out for a ride and after maybe 5 miles it starts to splutter like it’s running out of fuel but there’s plenty , it even cuts out . I’ve flushed the tank and fitted a new fuel tap and the float bowls have been cleaned but as yet I haven’t removed the carbs as the carb rubbers are original and I just know they’ll crack and fall apart but eventually they will need to come off , so my question is should I just give them a clean or is there something specific that would cause such an issue. I have been thinking also about a new set of coils as I have some dynatek 3ohm from an old project. Any help would be much appreciated.

so I’ve made the longer linkage using the advice from you chaps and I think it turned out as I’d hoped, gained about 12 cm in ride height from the linkage and new yss shock .

Thanks lads, it looks like it’s not as complicated as I imagined, the main thing was how much does one add for a given ride height so 4-1 gives me a good point to start from

Hi all, does anyone have a photo or know where to find one of a efe extended suspension linkage, I’d like to raise the bike up a few inches to improve the stance and would like to see how others have managed , many thanks nick

Hi people, just wondering if anyone has any experience of Mtc big bore kits for an 1150 efe . I’ve bought a 1260 kit and was wondering if there was any tips for this kit . Thanks in advance

Great thanks

Hi , quick question, without stripping the engine down how do you know what size gudgin pin your engine has I have a gsx 1100 ef grime 86 I have bought a 1260 bore kit but would like to know what size I have as there seems to be 18 or 20 mm I can swap the kit if it’s wrong ( 20mm ) it’s because the engine runs fine so I’m waiting to fit the new pistons , thanks

Thanks for the help, I’ve decided to repair the tank I have , I’ve cut out both sides and made two new strips to weld in place . It was only the very bottom that was bad so not such as bad as I initially thought.
