120 should work fine. The main problem with going any bigger on there is that the wheel is too narrow. You can physically get a bigger tire on,...
I think the 1100 motor was rotated forward quite a bit more the the 1000, so it would take some modifying. I seem to remember a thread a couple of...
And that's what happens when I go from memeory! I'll change that. Doug
Go with the 10wt fork oil. ATF is about 7.5 wt or so and I've heard not as good for the seals.
Stock had normal air, I believe max pressure is 6psi. The seals will wear out long before the air causes them any problems.
Did you clean the pistons before pushing them in? If they were dirty they are probably sticking to the seals and holding the pads against the...
Hold your hand on your stock rubber lines and sqeeze the brake lever with the other hand, you'll feel the line swell. Braided lines don't swell at...
The screens are inside the tank, they are pre-filters. It does sound more like a jetting problem, but the plugs should tell us more. Doug
If all the fuel issues check out fine, it could be a bad ignition module. I would really go through the carbs again, as that seems more likely....
Just don't use an oil with "friction modifiers". These are what will get into the clutch plates and cause them to slip. And, as has already been...
You might want to lower your gearing a bit, Streets is lots of 1st gear corners and a top speed of maybe 100. And dress warm, it can be pretty...
You can check out this thread and then decide for yourself....
I like the frame sliders that, if they ever touched the pavement, means the engine fell out.
And 8 connecting rods! Basically a V-8 with cojoined pistons.
Lot's of things can cause a tank slapper and on a track you know what/where they are (mostly) and can set up for them. The street hides a lot. The...
Past 185mph indicated (buried) on my '84 1000. Long downhill leading to a left sweeper. Front felt a bit squirrely, but not horrible for street...
Hey! Where's the choice for Supertrapp (80's)? I tried to ride my 1000F at Laguna years ago and, it being a non race day and Db limit of 92, they...
Reno-Fernley Raceway is about 1.5hrs away, nice ride there. The track is a bit bumpy, but not bad. T-Hill is about 4 hrs, boring as hell ride out...
I can't find my manual but I think stock is a 43T, so that would mean going to a 46T. I haven't run stock gearing in years. I actually went down...
It will lower the topend and aid in doing wheelies (like they need any help!). If you like it you should go back to the stock front and go with a...
