Doing things for friends?? Get your priorities right man! You have total strangers across the globe waiting on your results! ;) Only joking! Good...
Great work - very impressive!
Any idea if it would suit a '84 xj750?
Any progress or updates to report on this?
And replied to :-)
Hey mate, great work on your whole bike, not just the exhaust which I think is a great solution. What suburb of Perth are you in? I would love to...
As a (semi) related tangential question: If someone was going to convert their YCIS engined bike to EFI (not saying I'm going to, or if it is...
FYI: The V-max swing arm is roughly 30mm wider than the XJ750 unit where it pivots in the frame, so not an easy, 'drop in' swap. No surprise...
Looks great- nice work! A couple of questions if you don't mind: What seat hump/ tail is that and what size tyres are front and rear?
Hi all. Has anyone tried or know of anyone who has tried to fit a Vmax rear wheel to a XJ750? Came across some spare parts for sale that got me...
LOL! That would be worth more than my whole bike! Then again, a six pack of beer wouldn't be worth much less than it either! ;-)
Thanks for the offer, but I'm on the opposite side of the world from you so I will try to source some from this continent, but if I have no...
Yep, I've measured the clearances, recorded the corresponding shim thickness, just forgot to check the diameter of them! Just need to find 5...
Hi All Am working out what shims I need, but now can't remember if they are 25mm or 28mm diameter (or something else entirely!) - doh! I'm away...
Wow, this an awesome, inspiring project you are doing - great stuff, well done! One small question, could you not use some sort of intermediate...
You wouldn't be coveting this one, not the condition I got it in! :-)
No, but there are lots of places that sell wire cutters! ;) I will leave a real answer to some one who knows what they are talking about!
I'm certainly no expert but I would be using relays in the headlight circuit. (And possibly the starter solenoid circuit too, depending on current...
Result! FJR1300 front discs bolt straight up and have the desired 298mm diameter. Now onto wheel bearings / axle...
As I posted previously to the question 'why?': "I'm planning to use my original front wheel to keep the bike visually balanced as the more modern...
Does anyone know of a database of OD, ID, PCD & offset for brake disks?
That's cheating - you have a chain drive! ;-) Looks like you have a great bike there.
What model bike is that Thrasher? What rear wheel are you using? I'm planning to use my original front wheel to keep the bike visually balanced...
Hey darkfibre, was wondering what happened with this. Would this set up need the high output police spec alternator to run? Does it come with a...
Oops, typo. Should be 298mm diameter. Trying to match up my original front wheel with a set of blue spot calipers on FZR600 (YZF600? I forget!)
Hi everyone. Does anyone know of a larger diameter brake disk (288 mm) that will fit the front wheel of my '84 XJ750? Cheers, Shaynus
Yeah, that's what I have decided to do. I passed up a really cheap 900 for parts just before I committed to buying this one. Kicking myself now!
Turns out I've got #123. More like 122.5 actually at the moment though!
Thanks for the link Bushy, I didn't realise the significance of the 'RL' at the end of the model name. I'm glad I've found out it is actually a...
Cheers for that gunna The amount of knowledge on this site is impressive. Do the 900's have Bigger rear wheels / tyres than the 'normal' 750's?...
Well, it has been down the road on it's side. Bent forks, broken front fairing, no seat or any rear panels. Certainly not pristine at all! I was...
Just discovered mine is one of 200 in Australia and now I'm torn whether or not to cut 'n' shut it... Don't think it is anything particularly...
Hi everyone I find myself in a quandary. Just brought a bucket of snot XJ750 with the intention of a bobber / cafe custom. Just checked the vin...
Yeah, we like it, apart from the bloody mozzies that is! :wink:
Hi Everyone Just got myself a bunky 1981 XJ750 (well, as far as I can make out from the serial number!). It hasn't started for ages, previous...
