"Promise is a promise"
...Well not always :rolleyes:
Project is still a project and there hasn't been any progress.
Although the bike has moved 2 meters in the garage.
I got a few PM's about this project and how it's going, so here is a little update.
My motivation for this project has been...
Finally tools and other stuff has found their spots in the garage.
As you can see, bikes has been multiplied during this week :D
Have to move other bikes, if I want to work with the project, but its just a small thing to do
Engine has arrived and it's now in perfect condition. Faulty...
ONE YEAR AND FORTY DAYS LATER...
It's time to bring this project thread back to life.
A lot has happen during this time.
My garage is now renovated and I can finally use it. I bought new bike for summer to kill my need to ride.
As always this project got hidden under dust but now I'm ready to...
Two and half months since last post...
Positive progress has happened but lately some negative things also
Wiring this bike was pretty difficult for me and finally I made a decision to buy a m-unit with goodies
Set included m-unit V.2, m-switches and m-button
With these great items I figured...
Fuel lines done
Fuel line from the tank -> fuel filter -> carbs.
It was little tricky to figure out where and how to put fuel filter without too much "uphills" and turns to the hose.
I used pipeclamp with rubber insulation to hold fuel filter in its place
Coating the tank
The fuel...
All the parts for the first startup is now ordered and should arrive in next week.
I ordered a new neutral switch, an oil pressure switch and a small diode for the main wiring.
All the hoses, filters and wires has already arrived.
New coils, sparkplug wires and -caps
All main wires are...
Solved few big problems...
Rear shock.
Original GSXR1000 rear shock had a gaschamber and it was way too close to the carb, so I couldn't fit the pods.
Finally solution was to buy a new rear shock
YSS MZ456-305TR-28X. Model is made to fit in Honda CB600 and length of it is 305mm.
Only problem...
Thanks guys!
I wonder how much effect this does, but we will see.
Guy who made exhaust is well known racingbike builder, so I think he knows what he do.
But we will see.
Things happening in my garage and summer is coming fast!
My own deadline that I set to myself is 1st of June (yes, this year! ;D)
If I don't face any major problems, I think I can finish this before June
I'm pretty sure I mention in my previous posts that I have to move my garage to new...
UPDATE!
As I told in my previous post, the bike was in a workshop for exhaust modification and to plug tachometer hole.
Around 1,5 weeks ago, I found used carbs from Germany. Those should be much easier to adjust/set/tune to work with pods.
I called to the seller and we talked several times...
I didn't know either, but somehow my friend did it. He said also that this thing will last and do not break in two pieces, with power bike has atm.
I will check these out
Thanks! 8)
Bike is currently in a workshop for a custom exhaustsystem. Work will be done in mid-March.
Workshop will also fabricate plug for stopping oil spreading all over the engine from tachometercable hole (idk what it is called ;D)
Before we took it there, we finished shorting the sidestand...
I have been looking for Dyna-kits, but everyone I have found is suitable only for SOHC engines.
I haven't put effort enough for the search and still like to here suggestions from you guys ;)
Coils are already upgraded!
Thanks! :)
I have question and I hope you guys could help me.
This might be very stupid, because I haven't done my homework/googling enough. Didn't find answer quickly...
What kind of options there is to upgrade DOHC engines eletronic ignition?
And does these thing have already electronic ignition?
