thank you for that mate, much appreciated

hi, im looking for a measurement off a gsxr 600/750/1000 k1 or k2. its the distances between the subframe spars mounting points, where they meet the frame. thanks, i hope.

snippet 686 Author Posted May 22, 2019 Had 150 m.jets until 2 months ago when I found that the milder conditions/longer rides left my bike feeling a tad rich, so I fitted mikuni 145 mains. So this is my set-up arrived at over time - it might help anyone who has a similar set-up as my bike 1100M or N, big bore, flowed head, full system and std airbox with a higher flowing filter - these are the carb settings I ended up with (bikes vary a bit, but it should be close) std float heights, 145mains, std needle on 3rd and 37.5 pilots - pilot mixture screws 2 1/3 out - still surprised how much leaner all these settings are compared to my bike as a 1127. The pilot settings mean the bike is cold blooded for 2 miles and then clears up, the clean running low down was always the hardest thing to correct, the bike carburates perfectly when up to temperature now. The size of main jets do seem to bleed lower down too, I've done loads of messing about and they always make a difference to the 40mm cv carbs, which seem to show up any changes compared with many although he has a big bore kit, there is tons of info in there and hopefully this might get you in the ballpark

i know oilyspanner did a fair bit of work on his 1100m carbs, check this thread out,

if it was mine id go 1230 bore kit, freshen up/clean up the head/valves intake. new stem seals while youre in there. a set of 36mikuni flat slides and a decent free flowing exhaust. check the clutch backplate. then a decent set of forks and wheels /suspension and its ready to rock.

ive got one on my efe, it works and isnt rotten, its like a black chrome finish with a normal can. hasnt been used that much over the years,but it still looking as good as it did 10 years ago. edit to add, im a doof, its a sebring.

some lad on fb was making them, but they weret cheap. im sure you could knock some up out of 16 guage for a lot less

theyre reasonable priced new, about 7-or 8 quid iirc

thanks fbob, thats exactly the information i was looking for, almost bough the wc bottom yoke too .

Hi, Does anyone know if the yokes from gsxr 750/1100 Wp/wr/ws are the same dimensions as those for, 1100l,m,n. obviously i realise m forks are a larger top diamater, but ive got some 750m forks and top yoke, but no bottom yoke, and was wondering if i could broaden the search to include the water pumper ones.? forks are 50/54mm. cheers

Hi, Anyone got some leads for the paint codes used on standard white/ blue gsxr 750 and 1100 L model please? thanks
