  1. I wouldn't because that's how the bike arrived to me and I will just dingle hone and re ring it again Engine has to come out to clean the burnt oil out of the sight glass, and then il do the crankseal that's letting go while I'm there Etc Etc Etc
  2. Take note of the zero fins on the cylinder, not even sideways ones, suzuki really dialed in the cooling requirement on this. 100mph tape and a big fresh can, and now air is blowing over the cylinder. Vibrates like a harley tho, Already checked and crank bearings are like $30 a side

    PAINT THREAD

    I have a water/oil trap at the compressor, then a disposable filter at the gun after about 15m of hose and it has worked fine for the painting I have done. Better to have a condenser or a line of pipe going up and down the wall for everything to cool and drop out of the air. But I move mine around a lot, and the gun filters seem to last forever (I cut the last few open to see how they are doing) and I have never got a fish eye or water droplet come through the gun One day I will mount it outside the shed so it's not so noisy and run some air lines through the wall

  6. Yeah do that. I can repair the shroud, only wreckers with one is on holiday for 3 weeks. Didn't heat seize on the next hours ride, I took the front engine cowl off, probably doesn't do anything much for cooling, but il at least see the piston shoot out Ordered one from aliexpress anyways, it just has a nasty vibration It can die when I say it can die
