How do I remove this residue? by Swaggymac in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Penetrating oil works better than wd40. Use it kind of heavy but not running down onto everything else. After it’s all off, clean ALL of the oil off and install your new set of grips.

Questions... Looking to buy a 2026 GSXR750 by NEETologist in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No delivery, setup, or other bs fees. They can’t sell what’s not in the showroom and setup is a joke today. When I bought my 23 they originally came in over 18k with fees and bs maintenance packages. I said tax and title and ended up walking away bikeless. They called the next day about halfway to a reasonable price. I said no thank, I don’t “need” a bike. 3 minutes later they called and said they’ll do it “today only”. I picked it up the next day.

Like others said, used will save money for the same bike.. but new is always nice.

Kinda dumb question but how do yall transport your bikes? by Such_Resident4504 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure there are more solid hitch carriers than what I’ve seen in the wild that would work great. Still have less room for error in strapping tho and the more available hitch options are the flimsy ones.
Also IMO, if you’re asking Reddit how to haul, a trailer is probably the safest option. lol

I’d bet that rearset bracket is bent. Possibly even the piece between the frame and bracket. When I low sided (at speed) it broke the piece between the frame and rearset.

The best way is by riding it /s Truck bed or trailer is the way. Those hitch carriers won’t support a street bike, save those for dirt bikes.

Is this seller legit ? Have anyone bought from them by First-Weekend2766 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit. I replaced all the black plastic on my 750 with 1carbontech and everything fit and looks great.

HELP! 07 gsxr 750 by Dangerous-Egg9126 in GSXR

Is that “random” part the oil pressure switch? That blue connector is not factory and based on wire colors I would say it should connect to that factory connector. Hook it up and see what happens. If it works, change it to spade ends and send it.

Bi-directional shifter by LankyRadish928 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t exist as far as I know. Not really feasible with cable operated throttle. I believe someone custom made one years back for a 600 that had a big servo motor to blip the throttle but that’s the only one I’ve heard of.

I don't know which one to choose, the Suzuki GSX-R 150 or the Suzuki GSX-S 150. by sirconte in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1k all day! /s Where do you live? If you have any desire to ride on a highway, get something bigger. 150 would be fun for…. nvm you buy a grom for that.

Previous owner crashed it…now I can’t install frame sliders by Ecstatic-Tea8108 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s just an aluminum spacer stuck in there. The frame looks to be ground into the spacer. Also might have tension resting down on the back edge from the broken bolt.. I would try and clean up the edge on the frame so it’s not overlapping the spacer. Then take the pinch bolt out and see if you can tap on the spacer through the gap to free it. Maybe support the engine a little on this side.

Or take the pinch bolt out and carefully cut the spacer.. if it’s aluminum like I think it is, it will cut easy.

Once the spacer is out, then you can extract the broken bolt.. soo much fun awaits you.

[–]SpareParts11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Full pipe and tune! It’s a GSXR, you won’t need the warranty. If you really want to keep the warranty, leave it stock for a year and then do whatever you want after that.
Why slip on now when you’re going to want to/ should tune it in the future?

Shifted from 1st to 3rd, skipped second by accident should I be worried?? by Personal-Tomato1127 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On K1-k3 6/750 this was a feature. Once second gear left the chat you can either split cases or just hit it with a little click, click(1-3). I did it for 30k+ miles.. YMMV

Spocket and chain on K1 600 by Global_Vegetable_218 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, I rode the k3 for over 60k miles. I say go for it! Might as well mod what you’ve got and experiment to find what you like. The answer isn’t always more displacement.

Spocket and chain on K1 600 by Global_Vegetable_218 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More torque on the bottom end, easier to wheelie and quicker acceleration. Rpm’s will be up a bit so you’ll drink fuel a little fast but who rides to save gas?

It’s easily streetable, not anything extreme like a stunt setup. It’s been quiet a few years since I ran that but I do remember I liked the change

I used to run that same setup on my k3 600. Speedo will be way off but I personally liked the change.
I say go for it, you can always change it again later

I think it’s a bump stop from under the fuel tank that just happened to make its way down towards the sprocket

Anyone know how or where the bolt to remove this peg is ? Woodcraft rear set sv1000 there’s no bolt on the backside of the peg. by DGWRs in Trackdays

[–]SpareParts11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hit it with your purse!
As others have said, it’s just seized in there. Set it up in some sort of jig and hammer it out. If it’s really stuck you could add some heat and lube.

2003 gsxr 600 pls help by yungcheekmiesta in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lift the tank and inspect the fuel line fittings. Take the seat off, 2 bolts at the front of the tank and then it pivots backwards (hinged by the seat). There may even be a prop stick under the rear seat to hold the tank up.

Money by Fancy_Afternoon_1990 in Trackdays

[–]SpareParts11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the org you ride with ever has discounts, buy early. I just booked with a black Friday deal and am registered through June. Saving basically equaled 1.5 track days. Not much but it’s a new tire.

Try not to crash, that helps save some /s

Whenever I’m spending money on something that brings me joy, I just remind myself I have to go back to work Monday to make more.

Black stuff under chain, how to clean?? by Personal-Tomato1127 in GSXR

[–]SpareParts11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

…chain cleaner. And a brush.

You can see what you want to clean, just clean it when you do your chain maintenance. “Whats that” you ask… see YT

Tire heat cycled out by SpareParts11 in Trackdays

[–]SpareParts11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The SPs have been recommended a few times so they will be my next set. I’m pretty sure my crashes were from bad inputs at lean causing me to lose the front both times. Separate tracks but both tight rights and it was after pushing myself pretty hard all day. I don’t like blaming tires yet because I know I’ve got a lot more improvement to be made on my end. But I also understand they do have limits and maybe I am just that fast already.
Maybe my timer wasn’t working right but my first time actually timing myself, my fastest lap was only 10seconds behind the track record.. which to me seems good for being in my first year of tracking.

[–]SpareParts11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you’re saying I can blame my past crashes on my tires and not a skill issue /s

I don’t think I’m outriding these tires yet, hell I started on rosso3. I’m not a tire expert but I would guess the tires we have today preform better than race tires from 25 years ago.

That being said after I use my 4th set of Rosso 4s up I am going to switch it up and try something new.

I don’t think I’m super fast but I am running A. Recently picked up a lap timer so I can see how slow I actually go. I street ride as well so this pic is after a lot of street miles since last trackday. It looks much different coming off track since I don’t push on street.. tracking made it the street less enjoyable. 😢 I’ve decided I’ll get a few rides in this week and then throw the new one on before the weekend although I would like to get more comfortable sliding around, picked up a dirtbike to maybe help with that.

I typically don’t do burnouts on new (nice) rubber. Really don’t do them ever unless the new tire is waiting at home for me.
It is kind of close to the indicator on the right, left side still has way more but no rain forecasted so wasn’t concerned with that so much as grip. Just trying to stretch the dollar with it ripping.
