  1. Bov need to see vacuum to work so off carb tops .

    Fuel pressure reg either plenum or carb tops .

    Gauge depends on what you have if it has vac then  carb tops.

    I make a small manifold that links all 4 carb tops then took items off this to give a smoother reading.

  2. So with carbs your never going to get it perfect all the way through the rev range but should get it near enough. 

    The main jet 3/4 to full throttle 

    Needle/slide   1/4 to 3/4 

    And pilot jet and screw , idle to 1/4  

    Just a rough guide but there is a slight overlap  . So if you reduce your mains by a measurable amount it will then have a slight affect say over half throttle . 

    As the previous replies the top end is rich you want to reduce the mains and then work from there .

    From memory my bandit with pod filters and a full Akrapovic system was 150 mains .

  3. I would also have check of the  connectors in the loom  and the main ground connection on the engine just to rule out  . From what you describe I would say its carb problems tho.

  4. Used a vac manifold on my bandit for 5 years , it's on carbs tho .Taking the pipes off where you would fit a carb balancer . 1 pipe to each port . No t peices .On my 7/11 turbo with gsxr 600 k1 tb's I have drilled and tapped the underside of each inlet port and fitted a small an-3 fitting . 

  5. I've had a cylinder head sat in the loft for a while I purchased second hand that has been ported and skimmed . The inlet side has some titanium retainers fitted with different collets so the valve stem just sticks above the retainer . Is this going to be ok ? Valve springs look after market . Anyone seen something like this before ? No markings on the head .

  6. I would take the clutch cover off and check the clutch pressure plate Is lifting correctly . If it's been standing for a while take the plates out and make sure there not stuck together . Worth taking the clutch slave cylinder off and cleaning as there not in the best place and tend to get covered in crap.

    I have had the friction plates break up so not worth the risk .

    The wrong oil may cause it to slip but not drag .

  7. Yes you are  correct the front discs are different off set , you will either need to space the discs out or gsxr ones .

    Pic of the spacers are all OE standard ones .

    If running a bandit caliper hanger you wont be able to run the stock torque arm to the frame as the slingshot caliper hanger pivots and has a brass bush in .

  8. @ChrisR1 pics attached .

    Left hand side and right hand side of the 1990 750 L I have .

    Also included pic of a gsxr slingshot wheel and a bandit 12 wheel as you can see the difference on the disc side .

    99% sure the sprocket carriers are the same . The wheels are same sprocket side .

    Last pic the spacers -

    Sprocket carrier side  @ 16.5mm

    Disc side @ 21mm

    Caliper hanger @ 29mm

    You can fit bandit 12 wheels in a slingshot but its bit of massin about as the caliper hanger pivots around the bush in the centre .

    Hey colinworth79 thanks for replying. Per my other reply it isn't the same - I have no idea where it is from originally!

    Yes your correct , that spacer is 1200 bandit .  If you need I can post some pics from my 750 L ?

     

  10. Slingshot fairings only change on the top and side panels .

    Belly pans all the same..

    Top fairings , 750 has 2 bolts on the side and 1100 have 3 and then match to the respective side panels .

    The last slingshots M and N have a larger enclosed headlight instead of the 2 round lights . Again different between the 750 and 1100.

  11. There is several things you can have a look at to try to eliminate the problem.

    As stated the fuel pressure has to be set to 1 - 2 psi at idle otherwise the carbs will flood.

    The return line back to the tank needs to be at least as big if not bigger than the supply . 

    Make sure you haven't got dyno jet springs in the carbs as there weaker than stock .

    Have you got a dump valve fitted ? If not I would fit one .

    As regard to jet sizes , the size and design of the pitot tube to the area of the boost pipe will have an affect on the  size of main jet you run . Too small a pitot tube you end up with massive main jets. There was a really good article on line somewhere about this.

    I would get some afr readings as possibly it's going really rich once you snap the throttle shut.
