Ah ok, thanks

i have brand new rs36 flatslides on my 87 gsxr1100 , surging at low revs - is that a sign of being too lean or too rich

thanks, yer its a brand new wiring loom, ive checked all that and cleaned, cleaned starter switch, no clutch witch, batterys reasonably new gel type 230cc , im thinking all i can put it down to is the starter

yer gave the original a good clean up, brushes are like a couple mils above replacement, seemed better for awhile but still get the times where it acts as a flat battery but batterys good and have changed solonieod and switch block. im guessing starters like 37 years old, still searching for a replacement

That what i was thinking

thats intresting thanks

how big a job was it puting gsxr1000 forks on the slabside? did anything have to be machined for them to fit

does anyone know if a later model gsxr1100 water cooled starter could fit a oil cooled slabside by changing the end mounting caps over? my old 1100 seems a bit slow to crank and sometimes you woukd think the batterys dead but then itll pick up again, i know they look the same from except the mounting end but ive only seen one in photos

Ah cool, so no problem fitting it? i think theres only approx 10mm size difference

anyone know if a gsxr1000 steering damper will fit an 87 1100 slabside
