Fate or just mis-fortune :D i know visualy its a dog and would look better when your pissed,in the dark and from a distance whilst squinting. But the sound of that pipe made it for me, the motor runs sweet and making 130bhp and i reckon with a half fairing and a few tins of matt black i got the starting of a tool to throw down the 1/4 mile ;)

Don't get me wrong mate, it's a nice bike, it's just that when I go down to a dyno shop I usually come back with a big bill receipt, a few cups of coffee on board and maybe a heat rash - never a GSXR that I didn't already own.

You need ya eyes testin Si, its far from nice or are ya just being polite ;), its a dawg .
1)The dyno time was already pre-paid when the engine was built
2)You will never get heat in England
3) theres more chance of a blowjob off the pope than getting coffee off Ken
4)The bike still aint officially mine, more of an extended borrowing with the option to own :DIts still my mate Steves bike,he got the slaby while he was fightering his Busa, but thats been n gone and now hes got a fightered Gixer 1000 and is starting a rebuild on his NOR-SUKI, so he needs the space.......and thats were i come in :Dhttp://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y61/exile711/dans20bike1.jpg Gix 1000

Ah yea, that's right. Either you or he posted those photos a while back yea? I've seen them before. That Tri-suki was an awesome bit of gear.

No m8, the Tri-suki was a fuckin expensive ornament. It will never run right.....without MAJOR SURGURY !!! The frame is designed for a triple obviously and it was modded to squeeze the 4 cylinder lump at the front BUT theres just no room at the rear to fit 4 carbs between the rails. So the only options are widen the frame at the rear, this aint as simple as it sounds(new tank, shock mounts, swingarm and subframe mods etc etc) or a one off fool injection set up or turbo....either option ment big money.....so it went on ebay for 6K to a fella in Belfast

Hey m8, you sayin I like ugly bikes or my bikes ugly or I like ugly birds? Well the awnsers yes to all the above, gives a go on the slabby before you strip it, that 1052 sounds a wicked engine!!
For those that dont no 1052 was a short stroke engine with all the power up top, apparently when it comes on cam its mental!!

That's my ol dawg! At least you got it back on the road poor thing.
I got it part done and sorted a few things but lost my garage so it never got finished.
Needed lots of fettling and major surgery to make it look good (what happened to the ZX636R seat unit?)
Some one please do something with it. It might look like shite but that engine is sweet.
Hmmmm 130bhp Nor-Suki!!!!

Maybe i'm wrong but the 1052 bore strke ratio was oversquare compared to the 1127 which came after it. The 1127 always feel more mental than a 1052 even though the 1052 feels slower it's alway's snapping at your heel's.

Hey drillyourownwazname hows it hanging fella, i was the handsome fella in the van with steve when we picked up the dawg ;) and i also persuaded the 636 seat unit to come my way for another project:D

LOL sweet Ill keep an eye out for it.
I originally bought it for a slingy frame, not seen many about but the ones I have seen look really good. The proportions and lines are spot on.

The slabby ended up with an extreme case of bore wash, the carb emulsion tubes were fucked and i ended up giving to Ken cooper to sort, its now had the carbs re built with a stage 3 kit and makes good strong healthy power, i was gonna sell it but i would have lost money so i have decided to fit the lump into my Norton frame and frighten the fuck outa the head down arse up brigade, target date is brighton 08
