Hi,Im After a definitive answer on spacing for the Bandit 12 back wheel in the slabside 1100. I already have a slingshot 5.5 in which I've ran for 15 years with no probs,but I've put a k8 front end on,and want to match the straight spokes. From memory,I used the slabside spacers but mix and matching with the Bandit wheel,the closest seams to be 12mm out of center to the right,using a laser line,down the shock centre with forks central. Bandit swing arm 250mm Slabside swing arm 242 Any advice much appreciated.

So, I bought this cheap old teapot 600 and have started to pull it to pieces, I'm selling the motor, the carbs and possibly the running gear as I plan on making it into a bit of a "sleeper". I plan on fitting either a Bandit 1200 motor into it as there seems to be plenty of them around or a Powerscreen 1100 lump or even as a last resort a 750 oil burner of some sort. I want to try and retain the look of the boring old teapot but have better brakes, wider rear wheel and a lot more stomp! A few years back I bought an old GSX750ES off a guy in Nantwich, Cheshire which had a GSXR750J motor fitted, Bandit 600 front end and rear wheel together with a nice braced JMC swinging arm, I loved that bike, especially the fact that it looked like a stocker and nobody gave it a second glance! That's what I'd like to replicate with the teapot! Has anybody done this mod? If so grateful for any info and pointers. I'm guessing along with the motor I'm going to need the loom, the oil cooler and the CDI?
