What I did today...

[Marshy]

Fitted a customer's fairing for him. I don't normally fit them, but he asked nicely and was in need. It's not fully bolted up because he's fitting a new exhaust tomorrow and wanted to make room for it. Oh, and I don't have any of those stupid Suzuki arrow-head mounting thingamajigs for the main fairing mounts. But the paintwork came up great! It was his custom design, that I prepared in photoshop and Superbike Source produced.

Looks a treat Marshy, he'll be one very happy customer!

[fitzy]

[chubb]

Awesome

[Medic!]

Very nice. And he's coming to my place tomorrow to hopefully buy a muffler. You must of gas bagged too much cause he was going to come tonight.

Sorry ;) Yep it was partly me nattering, but mostly him drooling over his bike!

[Medic!]

Think it was more he didn't want to risk it driving around and needed to get it into his garage to drool some more. Told him he could come as late as he liked.

[Marshy]

He actually didn't rock up here until nearly 9:30pm (he was supposed to come at 7pm). Then drooling time, loading time, and a bit more drooling, and he was off.

[Marty]

Nice work Marshy! Sam's my mate actually. I was having a look at the fairings the other week and thinking damn I wouldn't want to drill into this nice new paint.

Thanks Marty :thumb: The paintwork is great, but it looks even better once it's fitted to the bike - particularly Sam's ultra-clean, brand-new looking bike!

My tax return just hit, I will be next in the queue

Yeh that bike was pristine when he stripped it down, I reckon he's crazy

[Marshy]

The green machine I'm building is nearly ready for showing, and the fairings look awesome on that too. Pics will be up in the next few days.

I was telling him to get a 600 tracky, rather than risk that almost-brand-new 2012 gixxer thou. But at least it's in race glass now, not exxy road plastics!

Andrew,

the closer I look, the more I work out... now that I worked out what it is (:cheer: Mr Ed. )....

assuming your clip ons are below your trees....What is your fork diameter below your clip on? (need to go below the taper on the tube to a parallel section - hopefully its within 50mm or so from the clip on......)

If clip ons are above trees, do you have 12mm of parallel below trees?

do you have a MC sorted? of so what are the CL dimensions of the mounting holes and the outside diameter of the master?

cheers

Mick

[Little Mick]

Mate, that's trick!! :thumb:

thanks Nick. Anything is achievable with the right resources and patience :)

Hopefully seen on Nelso's bike shortly :drum:

[senator8]

Nice Mick.
You taking orders? ;)

[Little Mick]

Nice Mick.
You taking orders? ;)

Depends on which one Rick...Nelso's Trees have taken more hrs than peeps would imagine...but the challenge is part of the buzz.. and everyone you do, you get smarter in doing....

looking at the thumb brake...If enough are interested, maybe worthwhile.... 1 offs are exxy due to tooling...but if enough interested, might be able to get some done more effectively...

will design one up based on info from Andrew...

If anyone can respond with R6 similar info, and I can measure the ZX6...that will cover the Suzi, Yami, Kawi... any other specific models, let me know the details and will work out what is required...

[Medic!]

Looks so good I'm not gonna offer my gold paint and race stickers.

[Marshy]

The gixxer 1K in the first post is so hnngggg. Wish mine would look that nice.

They are custom fairings from http://superbikesource.com.au - only $900 for everything (new fairings, custom paintwork, screen, dzus fasteners, wellnuts). Bargain.

just remember you will need the junction valve if you want to keep the footbrake as well.

Mick I have one you can copy
228
it looks like that

I don't have the square type though
229

[Medic!]

My cbr900 had a junction for the standard front brake lines to split. Possible to use something like that instead of making?. Just tipped the garage upside down but must have chucked it.

[Marshy]

If I've kept any old lines from fitting braided, I've probably got one or two also....

I have to say Ill be interested to read how the Beemer goes after installing the STM or any other aftermarket brand that well make a difference in your Starting Woes...:confused:

Specially after reading most of the night about slipper clutches.. which in a nutshell eliminates rear wheel lock from downshifts. Sorta acts like a one way differential.

Say you're coming into a corner and grab a downshift, or two or three for that matter, and get off the clutch to fast or didn't match revs just right this slipper clutch will eliminate the impending lock up of the rear tire so you don't soil your britches, or run off the track/road.

do you mean you have a thumb lever to copy or the junction valve? Is the junction valve a through hole or does it have an internal shuttle to control direction of flow?

Did you watch Marcel's vid? Around 13:30min he got the famous BMW ones. Of course you can get a good one and he's doing it exactly as everyone says to. But it's still hit and miss. I've had one good launch. Drag racers modify the clutch for the same reason. I've also spoken with well known locals and os who race them (not what I read on the internet) and discussed how to launch and how to fix.

it has a hole through the middle, they are only $60US odd dollars though I paid $114US for the valve and a 44' braided line

I thought about as it's very cheap part (at least the kawi ones) but then I started reading on having to calculate squish and using clay and whatnot... at some point I had to blink and that's when it hit me!! I can't even deal with what the bike has atm... hahahaha

Having said that, it seems that the most gains are to be had in the midrange and that's gotta be a massive plus on a 600!

[DisPlaCeD]

Had the Power Commander V & Auto Tune, front sprocket, BMC race air filter arrive... All fitted, except for the auto tune... because the Kawasaki does NOT run a M18x1.5 O2 sensor, you need to drill out and retap the existing hole, OR bung the existing and drill/tap a new one and use the adapter (fking kidding me!!) Anyway, will need new tyres as well to get it ready before Friday!! :bolt:

Yesterday was a busy day.
I fixed up my trailer with new wheel bearings and new LED lights that was needed. I also welded up the mud guard on that came off during the drive from PI.
I also fitted new Driven chain and sprockets, and also mounted a bracket that I fabricated for my lap timer

Here is the btacket

I'm also getting my tank and fairings painted, so I took off my stop grips and the tank covers I fabricated and gave them a sand and got them ready for primer, I've tested them out in a crash and they work a treat (also much cheaper). I cleaned the stompgrips and bought some adhesive so ill put them back on when the tank arrived.
Here are the fibre glass covers I made.

I got a set of 30mm Cartridges with springs and a TTX 36 MKII, and they will be off to Zeno after the St George Round. A big thanks to Corey from Motomummy for looking after me

[Mr.Ed]

Thems nice golden bits you have there... :clap:

[Stu23]

Very very nice :)

[chubb]

Nice bouncy bits! Did you have to pay the gst and import tax?

[Mazabuzz]

No i didn't. No invoice or price displayed on the packaging, something that was pre arrange that i always do with them

[chubb]

Nice! Might have to start buying stuff from them as well!

I did this a little while ago...thought I'd share...

Sometimes its hard to get the part you need when you need it....


What is it I refer to???

Look in the middle of the pic below: Engine mount bush - part number 92154A

One of these was a minimum of 5 weeks from OS from Kawasaki... and it wasnt feasible for a local wrecker to pull a bike apart to sort one out for the customer..

so, decided the wait was hampering progress.... broke out some CrMo bar and made this.. (notice the original on the right with a bend in it)

repaired as good as new and another happy brazillian Aussie

[Little Mick]

Also had to do Seals on young blokes yz, so in addition to the seal driver above, I needed to sort out the tooling to get the damping assembly sorted..

Needed a 49mm octagonal spanner for the outside and an adapter for the Comp valve....

whacked this up for trialling..

Used them yesterday.... worked a treat...

Cheaper to buy the tools no doubt...but don't learn as much that way

[Little Mick]

one other tool I made up yesterday...not absolutely necessary, but nice to have and makes the job a little easier if you overfill with oil.. Some bikes also required the oil level filled to a certain distance from the top of the tube.. The Stainless Straw is set to the said setting then the excess is drawn back through the syringe

I'm going back into hiding :peep:

need to pull my finger out and get the ZX6 back together...

went to work on it today and found that the young bloke had the tools with him at the MX track...opted to do the ignition switch mod in the mean time.

If that closes will it cut ignition?

[senator8]

If that closes will it cut ignition?

Interesting you ask that. Yes it does. I had the same switch on a car for nitrous. We had to remove the cover and just leave the toggle, as sometimes from vibration it would close.

[dan]

Was thinking if you had a moment, maybe got off the seat, you might accidentally hit it closed which would make things interesting.

Can you set it up so it's reversed - closed is on then flip it up to turn it off?

[Mazabuzz]

Mick, do you use CNC milling machines? I ask because i do a lot of 3D modelling for my work and am looking at getting some spare parts for my vortex rearsets made up.

[Marshy]

I ground down the actual toggle switch on my Blade, so that the switch stayed where it was put, even when the cover was closed.

[Little Mick]

If that closes will it cut ignition?

Thats the Plan Dan


Interesting you ask that. Yes it does. I had the same switch on a car for nitrous. We had to remove the cover and just leave the toggle, as sometimes from vibration it would close.

How much vibration Rick? the cover does sit up on its own but will keep an eye on it - thanks for the heads up.. it is easy enough to remove if need be - or do what marshy suggesterd


Was thinking if you had a moment, maybe got off the seat, you might accidentally hit it closed which would make things interesting.

Can you set it up so it's reversed - closed is on then flip it up to turn it off?

not with this switch dan as there is a keyway for the switch cover to lock into.. you could do it but the cover might vibrate arount the switch without the little tang.


Mick, do you use CNC milling machines? I ask because i do a lot of 3D modelling for my work and am looking at getting some spare parts for my vortex rearsets made up.

I'd love to use CNCs Mario - My machines are old school tho...Lathe is 60s vintage and miller is 70s at best..

At some point I will get a CNC and do custom stuff but at the moment....its the way slower method.

[Mazabuzz]

So what if i can produce production detail drawings, would that help?

[senator8]

Fixed the undersized fan wiring that caused the wire and fuse holder to get hot enough to melt and stop working at the St George meeting. Lucky no fire. Pics of what was used and what I replaced it with.

Keyless ignition wired. (Thanks for the help Johnnyb) Just waiting for some Carbon fibre sheet to make up the switch mounts for the BMW and Suzuki.

A pic of my throttle spring mod. The standard throttle is very heavy. Next up, is to make the throttle a bit quicker, and drop a couple of kilos off me and the bike ;)

[Marshy]

Niice Rick!! Can you talk me through the throttle spring mod? I'd love to lighten mine a bit too - the yammie ones are too heavy also, particularly seeing as they aren't actually physically turning the butterflies!!

[chubb]

I need to know how to do keyless for the yammie without locking myself out! Anyone?

[senator8]

Niice Rick!! Can you talk me through the throttle spring mod? I'd love to lighten mine a bit too - the yammie ones are too heavy also, particularly seeing as they aren't actually physically turning the butterflies!!

Not sure how the R6 spring is mounted on the throttle bodies Nick.
On mine I had made, that little alloy wedge which bolts against the cable bracket. It allowed me to release the spring from its position and rest against my bracket. Taking about a third of a turn out of the spring.

[Marshy]

Got it, thanks Rick. I figured it was that bracket, but just wanted to check. I honestly haven't looked at the yammie one for a while, so I'll take a squiz....

[senator8]

No worries. I'm second guessing myself, and hoping I haven't gone too light :eek:
The beemer is a major job to pull the airbox, upper injectors etc. The upside is I got to give everything a good check and clean and found a few things to sort now better than later.

[Little Mick]

So what if i can produce production detail drawings, would that help?

Sorry for the late reply Mario. yeah can do depending on what you want. take some pics / send some drawings.. will have a look

[chubb]

Stripped the bike ready to go to RAM
http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd451/chubb35/null_zpsaa7d9977.jpg


First base coat of the wheels. Stupid wind prevented me from doing the rear properly. Going to have to rub it back and sort it out.

http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd451/chubb35/null_zps48315ee2.jpg

should have paid for the extra get Marshy to fit it service, I suck at it

[dan]

That looks awesome dude!

[dan]

I didn't think you could get the '9' plate though. Can you race with that?

[chubb]

Did you get new fairings?

[Negrogrande]

Can't register 9 but I'm just going to try and enter it in races next year if I still have the zook

[Mazabuzz]

Why didnt you go with another number?;)

Looks awesome ... and shiny! So tell more ... how/who painted? No way you'll get a single digit for StG racing ... a two digit and use that smaller font Marshy did for mine would fit.

Pretty sure stu23 ran the number 9

They are superbikesource fairings based on a design I drew up with Marshy (combination of my very average MS paint & his photoshop)

Funny... I made a carbon fibre triple clamp cover and fitted it.......

Repaired the air box cover on the R6 and refitted it.

Swapped the bike over to race shift. (That should make for an interesting first couple of days!!!!)

Did the Annitori ignition coil bypass. Thanks Marshy and BoB.

Removed the awesome Panda fairings and stripped all of the stickers off for a sanding, ready to drop back in to the moulds at Racers edge this week.

And went shopping for some tasty Carbonin parts for the new year...

Honestly Rancell. Auto electrics can be a major PITA. with DC everything always seems to be related to something else so troubleshooting can be a complete headf**k.

I'm so stoked that you got the HM dash though. I kinda have to buy one now. It was on my Christmas list but seems to have slipped near the bottom.

Have you set it all up yet ? Comments ??

The HM dash works a treat.

Butttt the stock dash has all the diag functions to try sort out these gremlins!!

Hopefully I won't have any trouble this coming Thursday.

Do you need to borrow a dash to help you sort it out ?
As long as you don't mind looking at one that has just clicked over 21000 Km's.....
WTF- When did i do all of those ?

Well I went through all the wiring with a wiring diagram and a fine tooth comb over the weekend.

Everything is meant to be where it all says. Bike starts fine idles well. Went through the gears on the stand couldn't replicate the issue I had last Thursday.

See what happens on Thursday at SMP whether the bike dies out while riding or not.

FI light comes on when the bike dies and if the bike doesn't die, comes on just as I turn the key off.

I get error codes 64, 72, 0

Which in the service manual means nothing as it doesn't exist!!!

Bah
????

[Negrogrande]

Also had 3mm ring made and pressed onto the end of my exhaust can to comply for scrutineering. They've pulled me up on it twice now., and safety first in any case.

[Mr.Ed]

Might as well just post the can... Can't be more than $10 each way

[Negrogrande]

Ed you are more than just a pretty face, the can weighs F all.
Rick can you send me the shop details?

Can you read this?
Just a note: I may put a small rivet or bolt though the bottom of the ring to make sure it never comes off.

Same here. My cursor has a mind of its own. Specially when quoting or editing before posting. Sometimes I just give up or not even attempt in the first place.

[Marshy]

I'm confused Tristan; what is the front stand doing there?

[dan]

Engineering place up Taree. Wetty also got his done down there

Excuse my ignorance but what is the purpose of the ring?

[Tristan]

What do you mean Nick ??

[Marshy]

Excuse my ignorance but what is the purpose of the ring?

Any sharp edge must have a minimum of 3mm beading on it, so as not to cut you. That's from memory of the GCRs.


What do you mean Nick ??

There's a red front Anderson stand at the front wheel that doesn't look like it's holding up the forks; nor does it look needed, because the wheel chock is holding the bike. Just wondered what it's for.

[Marshy]

Oi - you can either answer the question or post a google image - you can't do both!

Possibly leeway for narcotic abuse yet to be investigated.

Yeah nick it's just sitting there doesn't do any thing storage lol

My excuse is that they were two separate posts (possibly one each from two of my many personalities?) and thus in kind of a grey area, but in principle you make a good point and I retract the post that wasn't funny....

how come you put the OEM back in? Did you have a problem with the H&M?

[chubb]

He has translogic. Not HM

Ahh my mistake, someone here put one on recently I'm sure of it. I've had a few issues with mine that's why I was hoping to compare notes with someone else.

[chubb]

whats wrong with yours?

Dash works fine..but after chatting with UK techies I need to install rear wheel sensor.
Couldn't be stuffed right now, therefore up for sale if interested.
$250.00 ono.

[senator8]

Went to see my sponsors Protech Motorcycles for some dyno fine tuning. Outstanding work and great guys to deal with. Dom the owner is ex PTR and real perfectionist. Notice things like rags on the tie down points. That's Damien and Alex Cudlin's bikes in the background, and their family own a bike shop, so says something.

Highly recommended, and I'm not easy to please :)

Is it universal? Maybe my Suzuki?

[Saturnalian]

Well the acrylic rattle can booth has been doing a great job of not covering everything else in my lockup with spray dust.
I can't say the same for not covering myself.
One more fairing to rub the primer back on and into the paint job we go....

Is that your lock up at West Gosford?

[Saturnalian]

Yes. Are you in it now ?
Or are you just playing clever spot the difference games

Just thought it was a good halfway place for my shit. Better than an hour off the freeway to your place ;)

I have fitted my danmoto clipons (never buying again)
Renthals,
New brake reservoir
Bled brakes
Bent rearsets into shape until new ones arrive
And installed a QS
now I only need a fairing stay (ordered) mid pipe (ordered) and a set of slicks and I can go back on track

[Marshy]

You didn't consider giving the engine etc a bit of a wash down, so you can check for damage? It's filthy in that first photo!!

Otherwise it's looking great! Often what looks like a total wreck turns out to not be so bad....

Good work. Keep us updated :thumb:

blow nozzle on the compressor ;)
haven't washed the bike fully, but I pulled the airbox out and cleaned before I started it

[CBR42]

Installed one of Marshys Annitori Quick Shifters on the CBR today.Holy cow its like riding an automatic.Flat changes without backing off.:tongue:Amazing little device.Had to take the side fairings(its a roady) and the airbox off to get to the plug top coils which is always a good patience tester when putting it back together as those bitchy little clips and saddles never go back in the way they came out.Thought i might have been able to get away with getting at it by just removing the airbox but nope.Hooking the QS itself up was the easy part.No wires to cut, plug and play
Big thanks to Nick for supplying on short notice on Friday and for the advice today Cheers mate :high5:

I'm looking forward to playing with one of these combined with a race shift pattern.

Very easy install. Can't wait to try at Rnd 1.
