Grant Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Well that doesn't look good! Although well done for doing it all yourself mate. Too work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Oh dear... Atleast it was obvious what is the problem. Better than whipping the head off and then scratching your head wondering what is the problem... Nice Bandit. 600 or 1200? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3gdean Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Nice work, run like a dream after that! While its off...bit more of a skim, bit of DIY porting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marv Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Tried diy porting on an old zetec cylinder head I had and it took ages!!!!! Il spend the time cleaning the pcv valve and any other bits that are harder to access. It's a mk1 bandit 1200 has full akrapovic exhaust with titanium end can, ohlins rear shock, ignition advancer,jacked up an then a few blinded bits. Really nice smooth bike to ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
