Randy @ RPM used Curt's 1380 kit on my engine and I and very happy...45k miles and counting, uses no oil.

Keep the updates coming! Cheers. Pat



Thanks Robert for info!

Pat,

I was thinking 1294 or 1314 kit but you are always makes me go for more expensive stuff  :dash2:

Not sure yet what will be end result.... still thinking and calculating options...before my wife see my spendings and divorce me.... :drinks:

I was think to buy nice sectional for garage just in case she locks the door  :biggrin:

For now I am purchasing front and back suspension (see attached)

Need to find TAce build topics. I see TAce swing arm has bigger diameter shaft so I need to figure this out. Also , does rear blue dot caliper from YZF fit TAce swing arm caliper bracket or need to be modified? I remember front blue dots require a small shaving which is not a big deal. What about master brake cylinder? Which one to go for?

Thanks
Enjoy weekend guys :drinks:

Yes, the TAce swing arm pivot shaft is a bigger diameter than the FJ but you will notice the OD of TAce swing arm bearings is the same OD as the FJ swing arm bearings....meaning, the FJ swingarm bearings will fit into the TAce swing arm...also meaning you can also use the oem FJ pivot shaft (along with the FJ bearings and end caps) so you can discard the heavier TAce piviot shaft....clear as mud?

The TAce swing arm is too wide to fit into the FJ frame so you will need to narrow down the TAce swinger to be the same width as the FJ swinger. (Don't forget to allow clearance for the end caps)

Tell your wife it's all about enhancing your motorcycle safety....works for me.

I'm thinking most likely that was a part number or lot number for the plug put in the end of the camshaft.  When I get home after this trip I'll try to post pics where I have seen the camshaft grind numbers previously.

You can install an exhaust and intake valve with soft springs and measure actual lift/duration off the bucket.....it ends guessing and speculation. :good2:
