Guest repliedOK, here are few progress pics. My wife has been gracious enough to let me work on the bike in the house this winter to stave off those 25 degree garage temps. :-D
The stock clutch basket has rattled at idle ever since I bought the bike so it was sent out to GRC to have a Falicon heavy duty clutch kit installed. Stan did a very nice job, wish I could TIG weld like that!
It was reinstalled in the bike using half OEM clutch springs and half Barnett heavy duty springs to give an easier clutch pull over the all heavy duty springs which were in the bike last season.
An Earl's oil cooler and lines were installed to help keep temperatures in line. Bracket and cooler will be painted black once it warms up enough to paint.
I wasn't a fan of the way the Hindle can looked and the ghetto-fabulous exhaust hanger I had installed to test out the viability of the header system so...
I'm in the process of putting an eBay-special (read CHEAP!) 06 GSXR 1000 Ti Yoshi slipon on the bike right now.
This is a quick mockup to see how it looks and to take measurements etc - need to fab a couple of exhaust hangers.

Do you still have this pipe? I'm very interested!.Those Yoshi GS1000 pipes don't work with a monoshock conversion as the pipe would go right where the lower shock mount is located.

Guest repliedOriginally posted by jed.only View Postjust checking, i knew you had reasons. would the other carrier (the one mentioned in the post i quoted) + cush drive shaving have allowed to you align the chain with the 6" wheel? the world may never know.
i hear you on the cheap part, i am the same way.

you have two different rearsets right to left, or at least the guards are. k4 and k6, maybe? why is that?

Guest repliedOriginally posted by jed.only View Postim about to start page 66, but i had a few questions i HAD to get out before i forgot them.
would this have been a viable option to relieve your +6mm on the leftside of the rear wheel for chain alignment?
Originally posted by jed.only View Postthe finished redo and the stock GSXR still dont match up, what gives? loaded vs unloaded? good as it gets? more/less rake?Last edited by Guest; 01-19-2009, 02:38 AM.

Guest repliedJust saw the post with the pictures of the rearsets. The reason that the guards are different is because I have the others!!!! Just joking about having the actual others, but in reality, my brake lever heelguard has the holes while my shift lever heelguard has the slots. Different year GSXR rearsets scrounged up from ebay for my GS650g Cafe project. Stainless brake lines and paint will complete my project.
