thats the jockey,  use et needle maybe?, not sure what you mean "slit"

was it easy, or a load of hassle??

Et needle was to small to push on efe face, and i meant split cases to put blob of paint on, not to bad to do, i took all of the gubbins out for control panel on right as not needed, took about an hour, put led bulbs in as well, ill fit to bike over winter as just riding at the minute

thought it would be easy enough, solves my problem and for others too, and looks std good result

I could be way off base here  but one thing that is very different between the two frames are the engine mounts lower frame.

Has anybody got a 750? Can't remember what he goes by but pete750et son has could he take some sizes and I can compare to the 1100 frame or @imago have you a 1100 and 750? To compare?

Only just seen this!

For info.... 750 in black, 1100 in silver

Does the 750 carby's and header pipes fit 1100 motor.

Just to add to this thread. I have a 750ET frame and an 1100ET frame sat side by side. I bought a pair of the cast alloy footpeg hangers, they fit my 1100 frame but not my 750 frame.

whats the plan ?  

i bought a 750ET and fitted an 1100 engine in it.  exhaust fitted easy but had to use the 32mm 750 carbs till i sorted a set of 34mm 1100 carbs out.

I am planning on doing the same. I should have got 1100 in the first place.

no, that model doesn't cut the mustard not with me  anyway, just my opinion but that model is gopping 

Had to Google 'gopping'. I guess beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder. I find the one-off 1983 GS750ED to be quite sexy.

@TonyGeeyou know me dude the newer bike just dont speak buy buy buy but the older bikes i have a few im intressted in but funds say no i would love a katana project but prices are going up but never know what's round the corner  old skool rules all the way 

[Tony Nitrous]

I’ve had a few new bikes, bought another one this year, I absolutely love it! …. however there’s a very different passion I have for my Old Skool bikes, the new one is amazing on the road,  but I’ll drive a 100 miles to grab a 40 year old part for a project…
