    anyways he needs to lose that racing clutch pack...bad news.
    put the billet in the 7/11 and get john to do his 1150 basket.
    did i mention he needs to get a stock clutch pack?
    Uh Oh
    New? That'll chew up that nice basket.

      Yeah yeah yeah... thanks for the info boys... I misread the the ebay item and bought it haphazardly. +70 work week in the mall will do that to you.

      The bike has maybe 30 second of run time with the clutch in it.

      Not too sad though for I'll need it (Billet Basket) for the 7/11... Power upgrades will occur in its future... FYI she's running like a top. Definitely the most fun on a GS I've ever had. Taking it out quite often now, Too cold though for big rides.

      The 1150 is going to be broken down for the winter anyway, plan on painting the frame, rims and swing arm, Bearings Replacement, KOSO Gauge, GSX-R cooler, etc, etc... Long list. She's Parked in the project part of the Garage Now.

      I have a mint 79 8V 750 motor, thinking I could harvest it's straight cut Clutch Basket and matching gear for the 1150... Read somewhere that could work. Not to mention it's at no cost to me! (except for time...)

      Thanks again for the indirect insight.

        You would have to disassemble and reassemble the crank to switch the primary gear so that will cost some money to have it done right

          Roger... I'll give a call to RapidRay and see how much he charges for that and what he'd need to do the job "right". No rush now with the 750 running prime I plan on going through the 1150 thoroughly!

            750 gears are not the way to go.
            you have to grind the cases to get the basket gear in plus you need an early basket for the gear to fit.
            plus you would need to loose around 7 teeth on the rear sprocket and on and on.
            all you need for the 1150 is an HD kit installed on the basket.
            ray farms out crank work such as i do.
            go to the source....call pearson and be done.

                  Today's price $80 labour plus parts around 160. Cheap insurance
                  FBG sends them to MTC and raceworks is in the process of moving so I am shipping it to John at Pearson racing

                    i don't believe the backing plate kits are 80 bucks.
                    that's what they was dealer 20 years ago.

                                That's exactly what I run.
                                Worth the price if your basket is chewed up.
