As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Katman, I see from the pics, you have Koni's on. Are you still waiting on your Ohlins?
Doze.
 
that is correct......just need some money.....

or shold I say....lots of money!
 
Koni's

Koni's

Your Koni's will be good enough to hold the bike up untill you shell out for the solid gold wonder shocks. :) You will not believe the difference.
 
shocks

I love the mirrors. Who makes them and where did you get them? What is with the plates that are between the forks and the calipers? Does the bike have oversize rotors?
 
If anyone is interested in a bandit swingarm I will have one for sale..complete ready to bolt on with shock mounts and mono shock support removed. polished fork faces..

I am having another one done for me and I will be selling the one on my bike now and keeping a third one for spare...maybe sell it too later down the line.

This one comes with the armless brake hanger and caliper and custom pivot bushings to fit any gs1100/750.
 
It's really looking clean man. What are you going to do with the holes in the fairing? Put an emblem back on or have them sealed?
 
I've got the flatslides working pretty good today...some fine tuning and she will be rippin. Pulled the float bowls and they were way out. The bowls were 1/2 empty.

I was rippin to redline in in 4th...pulls good...but not GRRREEEAT. Just fine tuning now.
 
Had her up to 200kph (125mph) today runs real good at top end but still a bobble between 45k and 8k. 8 to 10k pulls like a .......yeh.

running 125 mains -2 on the needle. I will be talking to a Mikuni "expert" tomorrow to sort out the bobble.

Try the 130 mains katman. That's what were starting with for the 33s and I can only imagine that your larger bore will want at least as much fuel.

tried the 130's and performance dipped..


ewww, well and we are talking about 2 and 4 valve engines here. Your's is a 4 valave so from my understanding the jetting it way different.
 
TALKED to mikuni today and they are sending me a bag of jets and needles. I found the number on the needle jet is wrong for the bike. I don't remember if I mentioned ti but the floats were way out too but I fixed that.
They told me if I couldn't get it sorted out with the parts they will pay shipping to get the carbs and they will go through them flow them to check speck and send them back....

Not bad customer service......
