WORKING OUT the rolling diameter of the front wheel as the instructions were saying one thing ,which was conflicting and making no sense,

[Redmohawk]

Mark on tyre , and matching one on floor roll bike till mark points to floor again mark measure with tape easy .

all done cheers guys

[ALBI]

ok pete so with ur acewell and callibrating the speedo wat final number did you have?? as the book says with 17 inch wheel c1357 is the start point ? mine is way out aswell
so did you just measure the rolling cir and how did you go from there?

[Tony Nitrous]

I used a soft/cloth type tape measure.
Lifted front wheel off the ground,
stretched it around tyre. KOSO was
very close on satnav / GPS 1st time.

[RevHead]

nah i chalked up the tyre the shed floor and went for a roll ,its bloody almost spot on with my gps .:)

1860 is it Albi.

[StuNVA]

Makes the motogadget sound too easy...."set 17" wheel", check with GPS +/- 2kmph, check on Dyno spoton....checked using golden eagle radar.............:(

[latheboy]

I checked mine with a big vernia haha

Tony's idea is good just check it against a long rule to see if the measurements line up.

Bike looks good Pete, I like it.

[RevHead]

thanks Ivan, i matched the speedo to my gps ,it was 1k slower then my gps ,before i lost it off my bike on the way home from nfr

Tony, the headlight Bob & Pete have is the same as mine. They produce good light for night riding. Even with the mask covering the centre section the beam out of the eye is pretty good. I do a bike of night riding on my fighter and have not had a problem.

In saying this, the angle of the headlight behind the mask matters a great deal. For exsample, if the mask face's the eyes down to point at the road just in front of your tyre and you do the same with the headlight behind, you will get shit results.

You allow a small space from mask to headlight and angle the headlight to shoot out and forward you will get a much better result.

[RevHead]

bob followed me on sunday night, his light was so good ,lol

[Yella]

I like it Pete

[RevHead]

[K6Thou]

i think red Tony i really like the colour,just cant wait to get the fuel system back in so i can play with it againIt's a bloody suzuki Pete it needs an old school blue and white type of paint scheme..... Something like an early slabby or RG 500 but with a slightly modern twist.

[RevHead]

i hadnt had contact with my dad for 18months, as he enjoyed his solace ,plus my sister controlled his every move ,i was cool with it as when my parents split,when i was 4 i spent the 1st 21yrs of my life with a great bloke ,learning about everything ,he was an electrical engineer.

Tried to see dad as often as I could when I was back in Brisvegas on break(FIFO of WA). My old man was a builder but liked to build steam engines and was pretty good on the lathe and mill. Him and his brothers started up a motorcycle club in the early 1950s so its not suprising that we all ride. Taught us heaps.

Thanks Tony.

[RevHead]

crashtest dummies

[wackyrider]

I managed to sort out my carbies then's to Simon's Ultrasonic cleaner, now she's running like a dream. I did find residue of what seemed like water in the fuel in my carbies Pete. By my reasoning it must have been the servo at Jindabine as by the time I got to Khancoban it was running rough

good one Jules,ive drained my tank after i got home and have 100mils of petrol with about 2% of that being water ,as mine was playing up a few days before i left home ,im sure it was ,the suspect coil pack, in saying that the water wouldnt have helped.
also my had moments were it would run on 4 cylinders for an hour or 2 then run on 3x cylinders ,

[bladehunter]

Did any of you guys fill up at the shell at Cooma on Saturday arvo ? I got shit k's out the tank from there.

[Redmohawk]

I did but only 91 ron shit not premium bike ran fine, no water in carbs/tank yesturday when I pulled the bitch down.

[wackyrider]

I filled up from there on the Sunday on our way home. So did Trav and he had no issues with the bike

[sickboy]

same,with 91,no probs.

[RevHead]

right while bike was running today ,i grabbed the wiring harness and gave it a good pull ,what the fark ,bike jumped up onto 4 cylinders?,ok tank seat back off ,got out the olfa knife cut the harness open at various places ,found a broken power wire for the fan rubbing on the frame, checked all solder joint found the power for the low beam hanging by one thread of wire,the thought id take the battery and computer out ,look close at computer wiring ,a big red wire ,snapped off just sitting there, closer inspection showed it had been repaired in the past ,and has 3 inches of red wire soldered into it ,to make it longer,when i looked at the computer plug there was 2mil of bare wire hanging out of it,i managed to rejoin it with solder, the cable tied it tight to the wire next to it to stop movement,

[RevHead]

yup hoping when i kick it over tomorrow itl run on 4cyl, ive bought a wiring loom as i think preventative maintance is in order

[mr.zxr]

how does a wiring harness get so butchered in the first place? i have rebuilt bikes that have literally been snapped in half and the harness has hardly any damage.

[EVLZX]

It's a Suzuki :p

[K6Thou]

It's a Suzuki :pThat's enough outta you.....:p

[bladehunter]

Fucking infernal combustion engines.

I had a non starting problem on Suday with the monster. Starter wouldn't spin, had a good 12v, fuel pump primed when I turned her on, fuses all good, no holes in the ECU case. Started tracing the starter circuit, was just about to pull the low side from the starter when I realised it wasn't fully seated home. Pushed it back home and all was good.

Tho I reckon Pete if you had of starting off as trying to fix it as an electrical problem it would have been a fueling one.

[RevHead]

well it only get worse ,went and kicked it over ,running on 2 and 4 only,got out the cylinder leak down tester,looks lik fucked inlet valve on 1 and 3 so anyone got a spare busa head
list of things replaced to chase down the problem
plugs and coils
tps sensor
and wiring opened ,which located a few broken wires,evlzx ,mate i cant answer that as i only added not chopped and changed ,

so il pull the motor out next weekend ,strip the bike to shit,powder coat a few things, i phoned a mate about rebuilding the head ,well its off with its head as valves come in at around $1000 ,then the labour to seat them ,etc,bullshit,
fuck dissapointted ! buy a busa bullet proof motors ,my arse my 1100w ran rings around the busa for reliability ,i put 50thou on that donk and changed the oil every 5k and only had 1 set of iridium plugs init in 5 yrs,the busa might be fast but you pay for it with reliability,3x sets of plugs in 4thou k,2 xoil changes ,and when you want to have a weekend away you get 11/2 days of riding then spend the 1 day riding 800k home with it jumping from 4cylinders to 2 cylinders ,rant over ,just very dissapointed ,ive only done 4k onit and ,well know its time to pull it down ,might hit ebay and buy another head,might roll it out of the shed and burn it ,

1st Suzuki ive ever had let me down

[Tony Nitrous]

My current Busa has been on the road for over 5 years.
It get lots of abuse and very little maintainence other
than my unskilled numb nut attempts.

Last Busa would run 20+ low 10's and the drags on a Wednesday,
commute all week, chase sportsbikes on a weekend.

You get the odd one's in all makes and model run's.

Not found much tougher than a Busa.

[EVLZX]

http://find.powersportsplus.com/?s=1&q=valve&x=0&y=0 Valves themselves aren't too expensive

[RevHead]

if you look up gsx1300r suzuki on the link you posted ,the valve set come in at around $1200,to start,then you need gaskets etc etc ,im thinking of a complete motor ,or just save for 3 months and buy another busa with low ks,im over fucking with engines,

thens there fucked stems fucked valve seats etc etc ,over it!

[EVLZX]

I was looking at the kibble white valves on there or whatever they are.


Can you fit a Gen 2 engine in?

[StuNVA]

Get it running, put it back to stock and trade the cunt in on something else, sounds like a lemon.

[BANDITROD]

how many klms on it pete

[Tony Nitrous]

Can you fit a Gen 2 engine in?

It's been done. No real advantage other than a Gen2
B-King is likely to be newer, probably more expensive.
Some say Gen1 is a tougher engine, it has more meat
In the barrels and doesn't have titanium valves, Gen1
seems more suitable for boost? Gen2 makes a few more
Ponys stock but not a huge amount from what I've seen.

if i have to il buy another bike

how many klms on it pete
108k,Rod ,but in saying that Tex,s99 has well over 250 never been apart,but the thing is if i got the bike out and didnt warm it up for 3mins all the time it ran like a missing dog ,until it decided to run better by itself?

i like the gen1 donks, they just have a better feel to them, i rode a few gen2 before i bought this gen1,
il sort it ,il buy a stat write off if i can find one,and use the wiring and motor .

be careful about these foreign port jobs on egay mate, if it was any good it would be more than likely still on the bike or sold word of mouth.

the bloke doing my zed donk has seen a few "name brand" port jobs from the US on late model stuff that were absolute shit flow wise (worse than factory) for road and race.

I liked your 1100 better.

[evad]

Pete are you saying that both 1 and 3 valves went at the same time? Seems very strange 1 valve I can understand but 2 at the same time???? if both have gone is this a symptom and not the cause?
