  1. without the spring you will notice immediately if it has some resistance when turning.
  2. maybe the shift arm is slightly bent and thus not rotating freely in the cases? Have you tried it without the spring?
  3. yeah but still only a blandit. Wake me up when it gets interesting.
  4. yeah... ground.... earth.... whatever you call it. - from the battery. The black/white wires.
  5. First I would make sure the ground wires are all OK. Maybe even add a few ground wires straight from the lamps to the battery. If that does not solve it, swap the left handlebar switchgear for another known good one from the same model/year.
  6. Now go and introduce yourself in General Discussions. And read some rules.
  7. my Nokia 1600 doesn't even have a camera.
  8. just like the camera used for that pic
  9. put the bike on its side on some pillows, unscrew the engine, ask some mates to help lift the frame off the engine. Frame is much easier to handle than an engine. Of course this works best when the engine is still complete but it should be possible.
  10. 4. Install a turbo. Then the wait for 3 and eventually 1 will be shorter. And less boring.
  11. Hi. Introduce yourself in General Discussions, read the rules, find out about your mistake.
  12. yes. Bottom rear mount is 10mm on B6, 12mm on B12. Everything else the same.
  13. OSS is more than just a forum. http://oldskoolsuzuki.info/archives/category/how-to
  14. you mean stay down? Or maybe I don't understand your problem?
  15. sounds like ignition problem to me. Check all the electrical connections are clean and tight. Might be some resonation-induced vibrations at 7000 rpm causing trouble.
  16. to be honest, after 20 years of being a bike mechanic, in 90% of the cases I reuse the seals if they are not damaged. A good clean is usually enough. Make sure you thoroughly clean the grooves where the seals sit.
  17. Welcome on OSS. I've been in Reno in the '90s, the thing I liked most was the proximity of Yosemite National Park. Anyway nice bike. I don't know about the Busa front end.
  18. three topics down the list is about GSX-R W decals. If you don't use your eyes then at least use the search function.
  19. 1100F and 1100L have completely different carbs. F (Powerscreen) has tin top 34's and L has BST36's.
