Tripple X Double X'er

Make him an offer...you never know...

I told my friend that this time of year he would be lucky to get blue book. He wanted more than blue book because of the extras. This bike really has been pampered. I hate to see him have to get rid of it, but he has some financial obligations that take priority over fun. The only offer he has had on it is $4700.00

2001 Suzuki Gsxr1000 Approximately 16k on the odometer. Yosh Cam Yosh ECU w/on the fly three way selectable MAP selection Yosh full titanium exhaust Michelin Pilot powers front (85%) and rear (65%) DID Gold chain Frame sliders Dual HID's PM me if interested.

I have the same problem around 4500k-5500k on the tach. Mine is carbed and I have tried rejetting but was closer to sea level when the worrk was done. The problem has since re-occurred since I moved back to Michigan.

:icon_lmao: That there is some funny shit.

Not mine. On Detroit Craigslist. Here's the linky. http://detroit.craigslist.org/mcy/803856948.html

You paid $90 for a manual... :icon_doh:

I was wondering the same thing... I know that the bird is notorius for a noisy clutch, but I didn't know anyone to compare noise with. I've been in SC for a year and have only seen one other bird. I know there are at least two members of this board who live in this state, but one is way north of me and the other sold his. I thought the noise was the CCT, but when I replaced that, it got quieter but was still making quite a bit of racket. I hope no one else has to go through this.

I was looking at that last night, but the guy has parted it out so I'll have to bid on all of the rest of the parts I need unless you can mount the carbs to that motor??? It looks like he has everything I would need, but then again I'm not sure of everything I would need. Anybody want to buy a slightly damaged 98 bird engine with 20k on the odometer... Question: How hard is it to convert a carberated bird to FI?

When I get home I'm going to cut the old oil filter in half and see if I can find any shavings. Can the oil pan be dropped without too much trouble?

With the gears directly behind the bearing I am 95% sure they didn't go into the trans. Before I pull the motor I'm going to attempt to pull it out. I think I found a bearing puller that will do the trick: http://www.directindustry.com/prod/simatec...092-247629.html Any opinions?

It looks like the engine will have to come out to repair this. The bearing is actually pressed on to that shaft. I don't know if my mechanical aptitude is up to the challenge. I think I will take this one to the shop...depending on the cost. Any recomendations?

Bump. Read the initial thread. It has been edited and pictures added.

Don't fancy your luck There have been a few guys on the UK BB sites that have had undertail's from Mototeck and had problems with the LED's corroding and had lots of problems even contacting them let alone getting any help :icon_nono: :icon_think: I've had mine for almost three years and no issues yet (knock on wood). Here's a supplier, but don't know if they ship to the land down under... http://www.exoticsportbike.com/cbr1100xx_(97-04)4.htm Thanks for the link. I already tried this company, but they only sell tail. ...and what's wrong with buying a little tail

Thanks for all of the advice!

Just spoke with a tech rep from Barnett, he indicated that with their kit the judder spring and seat are not needed... Anyone else have any input. I know I'm not the only one to change out a clutch on a 97 or 98 model bird.

Oh yes, I feel so much better now... Now what's that word everyone reffers to you as... dopplehead..

What weight is it set up for?

Just got the barnet clutch and I realize that all of the clutch plates are the same. On the 98's the first friction plate is recessed for the judder spring and judder spring seat. The after market parts are not. Has anyone else changed out their clutch on a 97 or 98 model with an after market clutch? I waited a month for these parts to arrive... I don't want to wait that long for the replacements. I already have the cover off and the plates removed, I want to put it back together but don't know if I should try the install with or without the judder ring. :icon_pray: Edit: While attemptin to reinstall the clutch I noticed that the main shaft had some play in it, which didn't seem to be right so I pulled of the oil pump sprocket and low and behold.... The attached pics are of the main shaft of the transmission. Take a look at the bearing... Any thoughts, Suggestions? This may be the cause of this same noise on other birds.

No, got a friend that puts LED turn signals in the face of the mirror on for the Busa's. He wants to try the XX mirrors with the same mod. Let us know how it turns out. I would be interested in buying a set.

What are the sizes for the rear axle nuts for chain adjustment?

CCT arrived the other day, and only took about 30 minutes to install. Just wanted to say thanks John! I also had a question for the board: My clutch was and still is making as much noise as the CCT, I know that everyone here says the XX clutch is practically bullet proof, but damn it's getting irritating The clutch only makes noise when the clutch lever is out. When I pull in the clutch the noise goes away has anyone else experience this?
