only carbs can backfire.

EFI can't

 

its due to the difference in technology.

The RF900, sport tourer, shock is identical to the 92-95GSXR750 with remote reservoir and fully adjustable. But its pretty ex.

 

For the 01-03 gsxr600/750/1000 shock, its slightly longer, but they should fit if there is clearance between the tail board and the intergated reservoir.

 

I'm trying to find out the measurement from the guys at banditalley who modify this shock on the bandit400. They are going quite cheap on ebay US$10-15 somemore its newer and better technology.

 

Btw are you riding a gsxr750K1?? Can you measure the distance from the top of the rear shock mounting bolt to the top of the intergrated canister??

hello gary.

 

with all due respect, would like to check smth out with u.

 

lets say u got the rf900 shocks, somehow managed to fit it into a gk76a.

 

ignorin all other issues which might occur with the swap.

 

would like to check wat are you going to do with the front forks.

 

change it? wats springs are u gonna be using? spring rate?

 

cheers mate

Chain oiler and non original rear shock. Stain on the rear cowling and hugger is water because just wash bike.

Yesh the exhaust is modified to high mount. Initially was aching om my neck and shoulder but now I'm getting used to it already but I missed the box where I can keep my rain coat and helmet.

 

The bike is running quieter compare to the first time when I got it, found some loose bolts here and there which I tighten back.

 

The tail board was painted matt black, I will repaint the whole bike to yellow/black/white Y2K gsxr600 painwork after all the repair are done.

 

I found the rear sprocket is shaking after I remove the old and thick grease on the chain and sprockets, took me 3hrs to completely remove the grease and dirt. My guess is the cush mounting has worn off.

 

The gear is more difficult to shift now after I clean away the grease on the chain and sprocket, and the rear wheel feels funny too, as its slipping, maybe due to the shaky rear sprocket.

 

The shock is unbearable too, almost threw me off the bike when going over humps, the preload is adjusted too much resulting insufficient rebound. Now looking at RF900 rear shock and gsxr750 01-03 rear shock on ebay, hoping to get a cheap deal.

 

When you want to change coolant, I just open my radiator cap the other day and saw the coolant colour has turn brown.

dude, u mean k1 to k3 g750 can be fixed on g4? These shocks on ebay are really tempting me with their prices.

Will be using a heavier fork oil on the front, 10w, read from the spec G4 fork oil is only 5w. My front dive and buttom out when going over depression, maybe due to the rear shock rebound too hard or the slightly leaking fork tube.

 

If got $$, may consider getting the newer gsxr1000 front end and swap on to the G4.

My bike outlook also like sh*t now, there are paint cracks and chip here and there, its just that its not visible on the pic.

 

Want to get the head fairing as well because the air duct (for ram air) on the right side is missing.

They will fit as long as there is clearance from the G4 tail board to the canister.

 

Some minor modification is also needed, grinding the cushion lever and adding spacer and longer bolts to secure the newer shock at the buttom.

dude,

 

can i just suggest that you speak to joshua from bikelab before doing that?

 

perhaps u might have a change of mind den?

 

p.s i believe andrew morris has hagon shocks, direct fit into gk76a. maybe u can check?

 

otherwise, i can find bitubo shocks. direct fit also with height adjuster in.

 

p.s.s add up the amount i have to pay for either PLUS doing up my front forks and springs,

i rather stick to a working STOCK since u are planning to ride it only for a while.

 

p.s.s.s my usual load of bullshit. old man liao. like to nag la :cheeky:

so feel free to ignore.

 

cheers

imagine a human with carl lewis's legs but with a major nerve problem on the right foot.

 

kakakaka.... its no longer how fast it goes...

sounds more like a problem of havin BALANCE to me.

 

playing with the oil but not touching on the springs to suit the new rear shocks?

dunno wor.... check with experts better ba? Bikelab!!! kakakakaa

[Shawn--]

Addictive, can be fix but will be very troublesome. Example like rear hugger block or da battery holder blocking...

 

ThSquid: ehh i think u duno S750WP's style... he like to buy old bikes n do up other then just ride it... hmm yap, there's a rear shock from bituto can fit directlto g4, but how much will tat be ?Haha if it was cheap there wouldnt be a reason for us to find shock at ebay or elsewhere.

 

Aiya, i mean if u really wan everything so swee swee,so balance, so stock. U might as well go get a 1st hand bike. Stick to da fully stock condition. Spec 3... go get it. Or any latest class2 bike. There's a g4 with CBR swing arm, CBR rear shock, rs250 rim and etc... He ride till now also no problem. Haha must so 'EXTRA' so 'Outstanding' / so 'professional' go calculate until all da stuff, balancing... measurement until so swee swee meh?

 

p.s.s.s my usual load of bullshit. old man liao. like to nag la

More like a ah di nagging to a uncle.

 

[paiseh]

is S750WP the one who changed his bandit rear shock using GSX750 rear shock from ebay??

Hagon and bitubo shock are out of my league, I have limited dough. The current rear shock on my bike is no longer stock, and paying $50-150 for a used rear G4 shock? what for?? I would rather trial with the newer rear shock from the gsxr750, US$10-15, somemore it fully adjustable for preload, rebound and compression damping. Then slowly do up the front fork.

 

Btw old man here also. Peace.

[Guest TheSquid]

kakaka... ya lor ya lor. young boy naggin like old man already.

Personally I have already did the above mention mod on a Bandit 400, heavier spring on the rear shock and heavier fork oil at the fork, there is no issue of unbalance, infact the handling was much better compare to before.

 

Well I could have make it even better to visit bikelab to adjust the race sag for me, but I didn't.
