Lula & geestring's 2009 Rat Bike

[Lula]

i know where there may be a old GSX750ES....
but thats all i know.
its a big heavy pig, but it may be ideal

Ok thanks carver. How do I find out about the GSX750ES?

[Gubb]

Ask Gubb to contact the previous owner & ask what he remembers of the spare engine. If he has already blown it then this isn't the project for you.
You don't NEED all the wiring , just the essential wires to make it go ...... headlight, indicators ETC are not required... but as no one knows which wires are for what expect some issues in that area.

Previous owner doesn't know anything about it, and has lost contact with the owner before him. It looks sweet as, Going on assumption (which you know what they say about it) if the engine stuffed itself then you'd probably open it up to have a look at what happened, surely you wouldn't put it back together broken though.

Then again, it's a risk.

i had my eye on it for a project bike.
i know where it is, i can try to remember to go and ask the dude about it.

Tonight I'm going to check out a Suzuki GS450. The guy says it has spark but may there be a carb jet blockage and he's replaced the master cylinder.

Fingers crossed this could be the project

Good luck Luana.

Ok here it is!!!!!!

geestring and I are now the proud owners of a Suzuki GS450 T 1981. Take a good look because you are not going to reconise it in weeks to come. This is the Rat Bike of year, it will stripped, ripped and re-built.

No time consuming cleaning, washing, polishing, adding shiny parts that do nothing. None of that, forget about it!

You will all see the machine of death take you out at Cold Kiwi!!!! It will eat it the hill and burn the rubber like seen you've never seen before. We will shame you. See you there - Cold Kiwi get ready you've been warned.

Ratty GS4fiddy is on it's way!!!!!

What size is that rear tyre lula?

[Lula]

What size is that rear tyre lula?

As it is it's 110/90-17, like most small things not very useful.

Geestring she's the mechanic modifier from hell has got big plans for the back tyre department. But as mentioned earlier on this thread we are open to all suggestions and if assisted you will be credited somewhere on the bike.

[Taz]

Got a half used 130/80x17 knobby here if you want it.

geestring reckons we could use that for the front so we'll take it. Thanks for contribution if used Anthrax will credited somewhere on the mighty Rat. If not used we will happily return it unless of course you want it deposed of.

I will PM you re collection arrangements

Who out there knows anything about a 1981 GS450 engine?

On closer inspection of our project there seem to be a few pieces missing. Is there is anyone who has worked on an engine like this before or who is mechanical minded who could come and take a look for us?

Our workshop is in Papakura.
