I need comment on this one. Strongly differing opinions were found and encountered in different projects/forums regarding the placement of the regulator and cdi parts. Some strongly believe that the parts in question (circled in blue) should be placed in the undercarriage in terms of cooling...

New Year and couple weeks has gone by but the project has seen more progress than in last three years. 😬 Motivation is high and I again see clearly the vision in my head. Let's keep it that way. Basically in last two weeks me and my father has been assembling the bike as far we can. This way...

Thanks for your encouraging words. To be honest, I have worked a lot with cars, motorbikes and bicycles but only like "minor" simple bolt-on modifications. This project is my first true real project with lot of hand made parts and own design. I have none education of working with these things...

"Promise is a promise" ...Well not always :doh: Project is still a project and there hasn't been any progress. Although the bike has moved 2 meters in the garage. I got a few PM's about this project and how it's going, so here is a little update. My motivation for this project has been...

Well... Unfortunately no... I'll post a little update later...

Well... Unfortunately no... I'll post a little update later

Finally tools and other stuff has found their spots in the garage. As you can see, bikes has been multiplied during this week :D Have to move other bikes, if I want to work with the project, but its just a small thing to do Engine has arrived and it's now in perfect condition. Faulty...

ONE YEAR AND FORTY DAYS LATER... It's time to bring this project thread back to life. A lot has happen during this time. My garage is now renovated and I can finally use it. I bought new bike for summer to kill my need to ride. As always this project got hidden under dust but now I'm ready to...

Two and half months since last post... Positive progress has happened but lately some negative things also Wiring this bike was pretty difficult for me and finally I made a decision to buy a m-unit with goodies Set included m-unit V.2, m-switches and m-button With these great items I figured...

Fuel lines done Fuel line from the tank -> fuel filter -> carbs. It was little tricky to figure out where and how to put fuel filter without too much "uphills" and turns to the hose. I used pipeclamp with rubber insulation to hold fuel filter in its place Coating the tank The fuel...

Thanks! :)

All the parts for the first startup is now ordered and should arrive in next week. I ordered a new neutral switch, an oil pressure switch and a small diode for the main wiring. All the hoses, filters and wires has already arrived. New coils, sparkplug wires and -caps All main wires are...

Hi, I have CB750K(Z) -79 with Mikuni VM29SS carbs. Does anyone else has this kind of set-up and could give an advice about the jets? What size should I buy, so it will work as smooth as possible. I have pretty straight custom made exhaust (4-2-1) and oval shape pods. Thank you guys!

Solved few big problems... Rear shock. Original GSXR1000 rear shock had a gaschamber and it was way too close to the carb, so I couldn't fit the pods. Finally solution was to buy a new rear shock YSS MZ456-305TR-28X. Model is made to fit in Honda CB600 and length of it is 305mm. Only problem...

Just fixed all links to pictures, that disappeared few days ago. Problem with picture host... Update coming later this week

Things happening in my garage and summer is coming fast! My own deadline that I set to myself is 1st of June (yes, this year! :laugh:) If I don't face any major problems, I think I can finish this before June I'm pretty sure I mention in my previous posts that I have to move my garage to new...

UPDATE! As I told in my previous post, the bike was in a workshop for exhaust modification and to plug tachometer hole. Around 1,5 weeks ago, I found used carbs from Germany. Those should be much easier to adjust/set/tune to work with pods. I called to the seller and we talked several times...

I will check that ignitech :thumbsup: For twin shock... I'm aware of those and that they aren't quality parts. Although I have heard lots of good opinions about them after you have made fully service to them. I'm going to try with those. I'm not going to ride this bike on a track, so we will see

Bike is currently in a workshop for a custom exhaustsystem. Work will be done in mid-March. Workshop will also fabricate plug for stopping oil spreading all over the engine from tachometercable hole (idk what it is called :D) Before we took it there, we finished shorting the sidestand...

I'm really glad that my project thread is helping you! Keep following! Goal is to finish this project early summer (may/june), so I have hurry things up :D

One in the link is suitable for earlier models, so SOHC engine only. My question is about DOHC engine :)

I have question and I hope you guys could help me. This might be very stupid, because I haven't done my homework/googling enough. Didn't find answer quickly... What kind of options there is to upgrade DOHC engines eletronic ignition? And does these thing have already electronic ignition?

Exhibition weekend was last week and it went great! We had a blast! Here are few pics from the event Nice to see lots of people looking and talking about my own project... As you may have already guessed, I didn't won in any class :D Bike is way too unfinished, so we will have to...

We are going to do all wiring from point 0 to 100. So I mean we are ripping every single wire out and put all new wires in. We are also going to make much more simple wirings and get rid of few unneccesary wires. More about that later :)

Today we put bike "together". Only 1,5 weeks to go before Finlands biggest motorcycle exhibition. Lots of parts are now in place but fitment is something like "almost alright", if you now what I mean. Front end not in its place, upper tripletree and speedometer is too high. Carbs are just...

Thanks!! :thumbsup: Thanks! I have to do some kind of saving plan for these :D Okay. I did change tire size also. Just wondering what kind of setups you guys run, so would 15/40 setup be okay?

Okay.. I don't get it. Original setup is 15/38, so two spikes bigger rear sprocket affects so much? I calculated with this http://www.gearingcommander.com/ It says original setup 15/38 -> 5th gear 50mph -> 3688rpm It also says new setup 15/40 -> 5th gear 50mph -> 4202rpm I like to have you...

We are now swapping front end with correct parts. As you saw in my last post, stem is already in its place. Yesterday we push bearing housing to the frame. I ordered two silencers and they look like this: Exhaust tips will come like this, but not that far: Few questions to you...

Update - Deadline 1. End of the last year, I decided that deadline for my bike is 31th of January, so it should be in Finlands biggest motorcycleshow in early february. As you can see, I didn't make it, BUT I got a call from event organisator. They would still be happy if my bike can make it...
