kick starter

Painted motor looks really nice. I used 98 GSXR 750W USD forks which are substantially wider. I just cut out a piece of steel to lay on top of the existing tab that was welded to the tube and welded it on.

Kaw-a-holic The bandit forks are wide enough its the the triple clamp angle between stem and forks legs.
Needs a larger of set. maybe this.

Sorry gtrain, I was just sharing how I kept my forks from hitting the tank. I modified the stock steering stop.

OK kaw-a-holic thanks for the input, I've swooped the trip clamp for a 1200 ZG voyager clamp, had the original stem fitted and the fork tube holes machined out 2mm to take the suzuki forks, The top clamp sits a little higher,
and I'll have to use 1" handle bars !

i have machined out "shims" from 1" .065 wall thickness tubing to use to make 7/8's bars fit where 1" bars were originally.
just a thought.

Getting closer

HELP looking for a little advise, I fitted a hydraulic clutch master cylinder
ZX14 slave cylinder I copied mark1122 idea and made a adapter plate so the
slave would fit the side cover,
I also made a larger fitting with a recess for the end of push rod
to accommodate for the ball in the center of the piston (1-2 mm off center)
There is no free travel in the push rod, there is no air in the system,
I have full hydraulic clutch lever movement, (its a bit heavy )
but the clutch doesn't quite fully release.
It has a Universal Clutch Master Cylinder
fully braided line.
Is the master cylinder too small or the slave too big?
disregard bleeder nipple plumping.

sounds to me like you need just a tad of free play to allow the piston to fully release.

Ha Leon, What I mean is when you pull the clutch in there is still drag between the plates,
two of us can just push the bike in gear with the clutch in?

sounds like you need more "stroke"sir :ohmy: !
