Looking for parts and suggestions (Fluff GSXR-750)

[Ryan Trent M]

Mandatory GTS content...  Finished putting the front end together last night
after regreasing the front upper and lower swingarms.  Should be good for a
few more years.  Now time to tear the rear end down, lube that, and put on
chain and sprockets.


GSXR-750 content...
I bought a 93 GSXR-750 that has been down on the left side.  The price was
right, and I am looking at making it more of a road warrior for now (Fast
but not pretty).  If I recall a couple guys are using GSXR for track bikes
and maybe a couple other people have one also.  I am looking for suggestions
with what is good for the money on a header, jet kit, ignition advance kit,
and any other suggestions for modification/setup of the bike.  Both the
front and rear rim have slight flat spots in them, any suggestions on where
to have them "trued"?  Once I get the performance mods done I will be
looking for plastic.  I am looking for front cowling, left lower cowling,
and left rear cowling.  My bike is the blue and white color scheme.

You can reply off list.

Thanks,
Trent

front swingarm

[Ryan Trent M]

First of all I would like to thank Kevin H. for the directions he posted on
how to regrease the upper A-arm bearings.  I didn't even have to get the
manual out until it was time to torque things back down.  For people that
have not regreased their front end (upper and lower a-arm and shock mounts)
I would highly suggest it.  Most of mine where near dry with 24K miles on a
93.  One of the seals on the lower front shock mount was also installed
incorrectly, the lip had been rolled back by the outside collar from the
factory.  It took me less than 2 hours to finish the job but I already had
the tire and front fender off to bleed the front brake and clean the
caliper.  I am waiting for my dealer to order the rubber boot so I can put
one on the right side.  The right upper a-arm bearings where much drier than
the left.  I don't know if the boots helps but it seems to.  Next week I
will tackle the chain and sprockets and regrease the rear suspension.  Any
helpful hints?

Thanks,
Trent

Chain and Sprockets for the GTS

[Ryan Trent M]

I am planning on putting a new chain and sprockets on the GTS this winter
and would like to get the parts ordered in the next month.  I will be
converting from the 532 to a 530.  At the same time I will be removing the
rear swingarm to grease bearings and such and I would like to get a chain
with out a masterlink.  Does anyone know where to get one?  Have people had
better luck with one brand of chain/sprockets over another?  I will probably
use steel sprockets in the stock gearing.

Thanks,

Trent
