Re: Rear Linkage No Bearings just Nylon Bushes

I run plastic bushes in all my rebuilds since mid 90's. Even in my race bike. I use a plastic called oilon or Nylacast the green version as its impregnated with a type of grease.

https://www.nylacast.com/components. The green one is right for us.

Re: Injector Query

Just for the record, the NA cam will not give you any more power, your best bet will be to get a Turbo cam back in.

Re: Injector Query

The base circle on a NA cam will be bigger so the Turbo valve must have been moded or installed at a different height. The chances of now fitting a STD Turbo (Z650) cam straight into the head will be highly unlikely.

Either the valve will have been tipped (having a small amount removed from the ...

The NA heads off the GPz750a series are the same casting but machined differently .
That is, the bowls are machined out more so no squish band to stop detonation.
The extra machining is to allow for the higher section ...

Re: Another day at the dyno - 200mph but a hollow victory

The purpose of the day was to check out all the recent changes. Best run was 175mph on a standing mile. Our problem is we lose too much speed on gear changes. Also i think we are running a little rich.
To be continued!

Have you found an air shifter yet?

nah not yet - any suggestions?

did you also open up the hole in the case to clear the thread??
Yes and no, I opened up the hole so I could tap the case so it was belt and braces.

I screwed the new boss into the case then tightened the nut onto the inner face of the case.
