I would have thought there is a breather in the tank cap. -
With an even number of studs, just measure the distance between two opposite studs. Simples. By the way the formula for 3 studs is wrong.

1. Horn is mounted on a bracket under the bottom yoke/triple clamp. 2. Good luck finding some. Last year a set appeared for sale on here and it took me 0,04 seconds to buy them. I had been looking for years.

It's explained in the article I mentionned several posts back. Basically the battery is overcharged and cooks.

At work I rebuild a lot of forks (did 14 sets this week ) and upsd ones are a bit harder, but not much. Getting the grub screw out is the hardest bit. Then as said heat it up and unscrew the tube (I put the tube in a vice, "lock" it with a pin through the holes, then use a front wheel spindle to unscrew it). In the bottom of the knuckle is also an o-ring and a washer, clean it all very well and lube the o-ring. Cleaning the thread before reassembly is very important. If you will replace the tube anyway, cut the thread on the old tube axially and use that to clean up the thread in the knuckle. The new tube should screw in very easily by hand. Use red loctite on final assembly.

AFAIK the fairing frame/mounts should always be inside the fairing. Never seen it otherwise. So as in your first pic is correct.

Farts? -
Welcome on OSS. Although it is aircooled, we have a section for two-strokes so I moved this post.

I read "fellow tossers"

Red & white looks best IMO. But any standard paintjob will give better return than custom.

yes they look like Nissin 4-pots (Slingshot, Mk1 B12, etc.) with fancy paint and name. -
Read the rules and you'll find out exactly what you need to know.

I copied it to the temporary site long ago, when I (as a moderator) still had access to the old site. Enjoy. https://old-skool-suzuki.proboards.com/thread/1017/strangewayz-gs1000-grebrod-old-site

GT750 4-LS front brake into T500

Video of rolling stoppies not loading -
make a list if what's missing/broken.
-
if not many parts are missing, I'd say rebuild it original(-ish) and sell it on to some Suzuki loving freak. There's a few internet sites full of them. Wait..... what

J and K have the same swingarm.
-
yes it's a K. J has black exhausts and non-adjustable brake lever and different paintjob, otherwise same as K. You bought it yet?

Actually OP has not mentionned yet why he/she wants to convert it to hydraulic clutch. Maybe it's some kind of fluid fetish, we don't know.
-
No. TL1000R arm is underbraced.
-
a hydraulic line is much easier to route in tight spaces than a cable. Could also be a reason why more dirtbikes have it. Anyway a new and correctly routed cable is just as light to operate as a hydraulic clutch.
