Tony Nitrous Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 I'm guessing the "Read the f#cking rules" comment means its not considered Old Skool enough dispute it being an oilcooled lump and you wanting to retro fit it into a more forum suitable frame. Quote
Suban12 Posted April 17, 2016 Author Posted April 17, 2016 (edited) Ahh sorry didn't clue in to rtfr read the fuckin rules comment..Now I know what it means all is good.Must be a bit thick...Sorry guys.,Not trying to be a dick just didn't understand... Edited April 17, 2016 by Suban12 Quote
banoffee Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 Looks more like it's because you referred to a powerscreen as a katana. 3 Quote
Suban12 Posted April 17, 2016 Author Posted April 17, 2016 Sorry dude that's what they are called over here!!!Usa /Canada market calls them that...I know they are not a real Katana....my bad... Quote
Suban12 Posted April 17, 2016 Author Posted April 17, 2016 So now we got this cleared up.How about frame options and help.Really was not trying to create a shit storm!! Quote
Captain Chaos Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 No shit storm created, just cleared it up as you said. IMO 750L is the best 750 to put a powerscreen engine in. But I'm biased. Quote
slingy1157 Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 Depends entirely on what look you want and how much work you want to do to fit the engine? Any oil cooled gsxr will be pretty easy and look nice. Or if you like the OSS air cooled look they arnt too hard to put into any frame from a gs550 up to 1100's. So take your pick. They do fit nice in a gs550 frame without the gaps at the back or header issues. Or what about Bandits? Do you get the 600/750 bandits out there. So what look do you want? Quote
Suban12 Posted April 18, 2016 Author Posted April 18, 2016 Thanks for the input guys.Not totally decided on the direction yet.Done the bandit thing already 1216 turbo not much left of the original bike.Leaning towards gsxr 750l just because never owned a gsxr before and should be a fun project. 1 Quote
slingy1157 Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 OOhh..Nice . Bet that was fun Ok cross the bandit idea off the list. Personally, having done the 1100 into a GSXR750 frame thing, i would never do it again. looks a bit better ,with the frame being a tighter fit around the engine, but the whole not being able to get the cam cover off in the frame and general lack of room under the tank is a PITA imoa. Stick with 1100 frames. What about the old oil boiler in a 1100 water cooled frame . I think they are the best looking gsxr frame, already have the bolt on subframe and heaps of room between the wheel and engine for what ever headers (or turbo) combo you could wish for. Just a bit more fettling to fit the engine buts its done quite a few times . Quote
