Do you still have a stock front caliper?

Not in useable condition. Only for spare parts. Pistons have pitting.

Got the pilots to go with those mains?  Will the clip-ons fit the M/C and all the other accessories?  I'm new, so I don't know what that measurement meant.

And, this is the pipe that you repacked a while back, right?  I read that you were running 152.5 mains and 17.5 pilots, but what is a "tank spacer"? 
I got your message about the 145 vs 150 mains.  Since I've never rejetted, I'm guessing that the 145 will run slightly leaner than the 150's.  Am I wrong?  Why did you prefer the 145's?  I'm about 200 miles north of you, so I don't htink that will make much of a difference.  Google Earth shows your town to be kind of rural, but I live in the middle of a city.  Should I be worried about your local climate affecting your rejet settings, and therefore mine?

I've been searching on this for quite a while.  And, yes, I've been staring at the rejet matrix.  I hear Buddha talking about the "black art" of carb maintenance, though, and I'm slightly worried. 

Just read this:

And, I understand your points. 

I will take the 145 mains off of your hands, and try not to bug you anymore about it.   

No problem. Glad to explain any of my logic. I try to avoid posting it, most of the time.

The clip-ons I have are for 41mm forks (Katana & SV), the GS forks are 37mm.

I have not repacked this exhaust. I looked inside it (without taking it apart) and it looked fine. If I have time Friday night, I may be able to do it if you want.

Have you still got the carbs and how much to send to Australia?

That's good to know about the clip-ons.  

Only repack it if you're not gonna charge me!  If you say it's fine, I guess it'll be okay.  I'm not obviously not a racer, though, so please bear that in mind.

Still got them. $45 shipping to downunder.

Depends on how far you want to go and spend.
Expect... oversize pistons $300, cams $250 are the first that would need to be done. Then you could mill the head, remove counterbalancer & rebalance the crank (personally I like the mass of the c/b shaft). Extreme could include a 4-valve head conversion.

I was going to use those carbs on a 569 motor I have sitting on my bench, waiting to be assembled.

Kat f/e with straight rate springs.
A couple of different rear shocks on different bikes... one had a Fox TC and another has an 04 GSXR 600 shock. On both, new upper mounts were made to accomodate the longer shock. 

Sorry dgyver will have to give them a miss as our dollar to yours sucks if only you were selling them 3 months ago when the $$ were a lot closer.

Yeah. The international shipping cost have got out of hand. I have shipped to Aus before and a similar size package was about half the cost several years ago.

Exhaust is SOLD.

I will start a new thread regarding the rest of the stuff I have to sell. Hopefully I will spend some time over the holidays sorting through it all.
