My ultimate GS750 build hope u guys like .... fixed with pics heavy

[Guest]

Rear wheel is of a 2005 GSXR 750

The rear wheel on the 2005 750 is a 5.5". I don't think any top shelf sport bike has used a 4.5" rear since the late 90's.

that explains how tight of a fitment it is i never measured i got a really good deal on everything couldn't pass it up

Bike looks great. There are oil cooled engine mount templates floating around between here and the oldskoolsuzuki site.

If its a 5.5" a 160 tire is too narrow and would be warped, 150-160 is normal on a 4.5" wheel. I have a 5.5" on my Bandit1200 and the standard tire on that wheel is a 180 which is way too wide for the GS1100 swingarm.

If you are using a 160 then thats great news for me, then I will go ahead and get a 4.5" B6 or SV650 wheel, they come standard with a 160 section rear tire.

its wide im running a 160 tire
i have a 530 conversion if u are interested
running 520 I needed a little more clearance
thank u for all the complements guys
it's like a dream come true for me to get this bike done and done right
I'm pretty sure the GSXR WHEEL I'm using is 4.5
its a very close fit
the only issues were
the large Axel in rear had to modify the drop outs and figureing out what chain to run
16x47
good luck with build any more questions just ask...

You should consider moving the voltage regulator to the underside for better cooling.

I'd like to see how you have air moving through the area to cool. Neatly tucked in there is good. Nice build with very nice components!

the really tiny circle near the rear tail light is the proximity sensor for the M lock
chain is
16 47 i made a custom spacer for the 520 front sprocket with a cnc
enjoy more to come

i should finish the kick stand this weekend just needs powder coated but my wife just gave birth to our second baby so progress has slowed a little bike

Looks Great! Do you remember the thickness of the spacer for the front sprocket?

 

[Philthy]

1/4 inch

Thanks for the info But are you sure it's not the back sprocket that's off a 250? I have the same one:

My 520 front sprocket came off a Kawasaki EX500 Ninja

http://www.jtsprockets.com/catalogue/model/1130

As you can see it has the same dimensions as the gs750:

This is not to be picky, but as people are searching the forum (like I do) to gather info before they shop for new parts, it's better that the info is correct.
When that is said, I love your bike, and I'm reassured now that I won't be having problems with fitting my 150 tyre on a 4.25inch rim with the 520 chain I've ordered
Good luck with both the baby and the bike!

 

[Philthy]

its for a gsxr 750
ill find eBay auction if you would like

I ran a 170 Michelin Pilot Power on a 5.5" GSXR rear on my 750 Special. It was the thinnest tyre that would fit.

Way less hassle to use a 4.5" and a 150/160.

The Vstrom has a 17" x 4.5" wheel I believe.

My bad.. I read "gsxr 520" as gsxr 250 :/ The gsxr 750 sure fits

 

[Philthy]

520 meaning type of chain
lol
im so close to finishing

[bonanzadave]

[Philthy]

[Philthy]

hate that my tank leaked right where pet cock is after the fresh paint job

my garage is a mess don't judge me I'm a busy man

[steve murdoch]

Even better, it is a Honda "Racing" hose clamp.
Your garage isn't even close to messy.

 

[Philthy]

Currently took clutch out
can't figure out why it's so hard to shift

 

[Philthy]

took her out for a ride last night

 

[1948man]

Shifting better?

 

[DohcBikes]

Subframe is built wrong. Not enough clearance at full compression. Tire is gonna rub. Dangerous at high speed and in corners.
