KATANAMANGLER Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 Welcome. I have just bought the same bike but it's been sat about a bit longer and in damper conditions an now it's in need of a complete strip. Looks like yours has had a bit of TLC at one time and it also looks like it has a later front end and wheels already. Maybe not much later but later Quote
toe1959 Posted March 4, 2016 Author Posted March 4, 2016 Thanks yes it is the later forks etc 95 ish, not been on a oil cooled 1100 hope it lives up to all its go and not just show. had the et and ef, hope you get yours sorted, bits are getting hard to get now. 1 Quote

Oilyspanner Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 Looking good Toe ! - has cleaned up really well. Quote
toe1959 Posted March 4, 2016 Author Posted March 4, 2016 hope to get a ride on this soon, with them 36mm flat slides and the full dyna hope it pulls like a train, been into v twins in the past tl1000r still got a sp1 like the low down power, had a 07 r6 had to ring it to get it going, was hard work.

Oilyspanner Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 You might need to clean the K and N filters, looks like they're dirty. The little cone filters can limit top end power, they won't drop any power lower down though - the larger, off-set ones are better. Someone has spent money on the bike and loved it, always a good sign - looking forward to what you think. Quote
toe1959 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 will try running it with no filters 1st, I was thinking the same, nice carbs crap filters. Quote
KATANAMANGLER Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 The RS36 is a delicate flower. They don't do well sitting in thier own juices for long periods of time. From experience I would recommend you have them cleaned and overhauled. Check out our Traders section. One of our members McMental does a discount on ultrasonic cleaning of carbs. Worth checking all the O rings too. Quote
toe1959 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 Thanks, I have cleaned them and had all the jets out, starts and runs fine, but the test will be out on the road. 1 Quote
