    1993 GSX-R-750... Any insight?

    heavy and slow IMO over the years... oil cooled models just seem to make power easy on the larger CC bikes. the water cooled bikes look nice and would be a good choice to leave mostly stock and ride it.

    Valve lapping questions ? compressor suggestion, lapping compound, is it even needed?

    i have only had one style of compressor for all my years.. it's the one with the lever you move and then you take up all the slack in the bolt that you turn to compress the spring. this type cuts down on all the turning to and from and i have used it on 8 and 16 valve models. mine says "made in...

    Valve lapping questions ? compressor suggestion, lapping compound, is it even needed?

    8 valve models have larger valves. 16 valve models have smaller valves. right off the top of my head that means you need different size valve lapping sticks/cups.

    Valve lapping questions ? compressor suggestion, lapping compound, is it even needed?

    post #2 assumes your bike has shim and shim buckets...aka an 8 valve model rather than a 16 valve.

    Need some clutch help - '80 1100LT

    my post should have read... "glad that you solved your clutch problem" not sure how i left out the "glad" part. new OEM steels/fibers/springs and new OEM clutch cable has fixed the problem in my experience given the basket and or inner hub isn't chopped up real bad.
