    Thanks twomany. Lol I guess I should have read my post better before posting. Lol. You bring up a good point about the force on the shifter. That piece is really short. I will try putting on the stock shift lever and see if it works any different. Thanks for your help!

    Good point on the base jetting. I will go through the guide and see what I come up with. I don't know why carb tuning is such a struggle for me. It's like a black art.

    Yes, jetting should be good. I ordered the carbs from 650central and mike asked specifically what pipes and intake. He pre jetted them at purchase. I will check the pilot circuit next. Thanks

    GSXR Inverted Fork Install

    I'm working on something similar with 04r6 forks. How are you guys dealing with the axle diameter issue? Getting the right bearings is easy but that hollow shaft in the center of the hub is my question. Can I just take it to a machine shop and have it bored out to fit the new axle?
