Hi TJ,

that looks very good !

They are what Kawasaki supplied and fully compatible with the Givi Monokey system. The rear rack is genuine whereas the pannier racks I had made by copying the originals. we jigged up for that at sold a few sets at £50 plus postage. I can see if anymore can be made if your interested?

Let me know

Hi Jett,

there are small K+N filters available for this purpose, but I don’t use them, because the oil mist is spoiling the area where it exhausts.

(Excuse my lack of english and I may use the words pipe and tube incorrect.
It is all about lines made of rubber.)

I have good experience with a very long (horizontal) rubber pipe routed to the very…[Read more]

Nice bikes freefaller.

I also have a ZRX amongst my 750 twins (7) and half a 750GT shaft

I’m quite pleasantly shocked with this. I have always been of the belief that iridium plugs were for sports style engines.

I will give it a go. Cheers for the feedback

The 865 big bores have been done by 2 guys who I believe shared their information and knowledge. They don’t come in kits but if you give me time I will try and get the information needed for you.

Don’t apologise at all just keep asking away

They look good and quite reasonably priced too. I might get my son to post me some over 😉

Hi TJ,

I would use the fuel tank of an LTD / CSR.
It fits to the B-frame with only minor adjustments at the rear, middle holder / pin.
Either enlarge the hole to a slot in the frame or reduce the size of the pin at the fuel tank.
Can be secured by a small hole in that pin and a cotter pin through it. Large washer in between.

It has small…[Read more]

Hi Dabbler,

very nice bike and very well done.
I love it 😉

Cheers, Michael

Hi Jett,

welcome to the Lonesome Twins !

That is an awesome chopper that you have built.

You have astonished me.
It would be nearly impossible to get it legal on the road here in Germany were I live.

Looking forward to see more pics of your Twins and have a lot of fun riding them 😉

Cheers, Michael

Hi Jett

There have been various Big Bore projects, some of which have been successful. 865cc has been achieved here in the UK and also Germany I believe.

Michael from Germany German 750 twin Website has been working on a 920cc? big bore. I am sure he will be along soon to comment.

I also believe someone attempted over 1000cc but this took quite…[Read more]

Hi Kenny,

the BS34 carbs description sounds good so far.
One issue may be that the idle srew is set to open the butterfly valves to much.
Try starting with reduced opening / lower idle speed.

You had the ignition rotor apart, which was necessary, for sure. But it is possible to mount it back by 180° turned. You still have ignition sparks as…[Read more]

Hi TJ,

that looks awesome !

But I can not recognise where the exhaust exhaust of the turbo is?

The intake of the exhaust gas from the engine has a wide flange into the turbo.

Would it be feasable to route two separate downtubes in parallel into the flange ?

Of course not ideal for the exhaust flow, but it will pressurise the intake “rotor”…[Read more]

AtLarge has received his boots !

Parcel to KK was returned and I have to send it again. Was a failure in postage amount, but I was in a post office to verify correct postage amount.
That was wrong !
Will check the Internet to find correct postage to UK 😉

Cheers, Michael

UPDATE

The new website is quite time consuming but going together well.

I am hoping we will be able to launch it in the next couple of weeks.

Hi TJ,

I am glad to support such a unique project and love to see it and you, of course, at Glemseck 101 this year !

It should work with the oil return.
I can only see the diameter size as an issue. As there are 750 cm³ displacement this amount of air needs to go to the catch can without giving to much pressure to the oil return of the…[Read more]

Hi TJ,

haha, the dual spark plug solutions look very similar to each other 😉

Martin is using the stock LTD pointless ignition with two dual ignition coils.
These must have a resistance of 2,2 to max. 3 Ohms, as recommended for electronic ignitions. Do not(!) use the stock ignition coils of the B-models. Their coils are made for breaker…[Read more]
