Teapot 600/1127

[Marc clayton]

Right chaps 

 

this is not going to be pretty 

Long story short 

got an 1127 lump so I’ve put it in my rat teapot 600 

used the 600 breather but clearance issues were still apparent 

so had a mate of mine weld up the inside amd then mill down the outside 

so that’s all good 

 

ive also used the loom from the 600 bike to save pulling all the wires out, but I have swapped over the cdi

 

it is running (lumpy) but that’s because it doesn’t have an air box on amd the end can was off 

 

anyway my question is can I get away with running the oil cooler from the 600 lump instead of running the 1100 cooler? 
or

will it over heat? 
 

just trying to save time in making the 1100 cooler work

I've had a 600 cooler on my 1127f engine for i don't know how many years. No overheating whatsoever. 
But it is not hidden behind a fairing.

That’s great news

I fitted the 11 cooler to my 7/11 teapot, can't remember it being to hard

[Marc clayton]

It’s more for time to get it back up and running 

 

if I do try and use the 11 cooler 

the cooler doesn’t sit well and it touches the down pipes 

 

so I’d have to make brackets and piss about, where as I just wanted to get it back together so I can start my long term build 

 

and put my rat to one side for the time being

Your brakes will have a hard time

I keep considering updating my gsx750f "rat"? with bigger engine, partly cause having much fun with my gsx6/11f sleeper.
