It's a work in progress but here is my bandit.

Agreed with stated, that frame is now a death trap. Also the position of those shocks does not make sense to me. thake that zig zag out and make it straight again.

Cool first bike, let me know if you ever want a low profile seat made, I dabble in upholstery and live in Fort Collins.

Looks cool, are you sure this is an 82? I thought they went over to the dohc engine at 82.

So I picked up a 1981 xs400 special2 in trade for an old bbq. The po said that he ruined the engine while he was attempting to seal the top end with rtv. Split the case and checked all the journals and bearing and am happy to report no damage. So at this point I need the finish rebuilding the...

What model tank is it?

Put the race in the freezer over night and quickly install it the next morning.

Good call, save that money for the cognito stem swap.

Don't waste your money with benji products. It's complete garbage!

If you need a seat cover made for your project I can help, anything from touring seats, cafe seats or choppers I've got you covered.

The bike us looking great, keep up the good work. Let me know if your ass slides around on seat when you really get on the throttle. I've always wondered if that would be an issue on these brat bench seats.

The issues I have with them is That they are easily damaged and if not treated right, ethonol will eat away at the tank from the inside out.

I think the f tanks look great, why would you want to change it? What ever you do don't use a fiberglass tank or you will be sorry.

I picked up my gsxr carbs on ebay for like 130 bucks. They are mikuni bst38ss that came off a 87 gsxr 750. I do believe you can use all of them from a bst34ss up to the 38. I have the first gen of them and they work pretty good but from what I have heard the later version was a little better...

I would have gave to po 300$ max for that basket case. It does have potential though.

I would have loved to try out some direct lift smoothbore carbs but I'm not made of money (unfortunately ). Another drawback to direct lift is that it doesn't automatically adjust for altitude. So if you were wanting to go over a pass or anything like that in theory your air fuel ratio would not...

There are plenty of parts, you just have to know where to look. Cycle exchange has some nice exhaust systems, and go fast parts. A good source for mods is on the cb1100f.net site. Lots of valuable info there.

Iim sure that you would greatly improve on the handling with the katana front end. The stock front end is terrible on the c model. Yeah the stock carbs are very difficult to tune without the air box. I don't really know of any alternatives to the stock box. I wish I would have kept my stock...

Re: 1982 CB750F Super Sport - Brat Project I wouldn't mess with the exhaust valves, they are within spec.

You can swap the swing arm from a cb1100f and it will accommodate a much wider wheel and is a direct bolt on as well as a 900f swing arm. As for the katana front end, how long are the forks? You don't want to have them too short which will mess with your rake and trail. Another popular swap is...
