I am sooo stupid! ( formerly 99 and 4 gears) (Read 204 times)

Wolf Full Member Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 140	I am sooo stupid! ( formerly 99 and 4 gears) 04/07/09 at 07:10:18 I have a '99 and have 1 down 3 up? How many gears should I have.... and how can I match the engine to the title? (meaning ... is this another engine.... thus older). I haven't gotten into the engine yet (soon), but now nervous I have a real project vrs a simple rebuild... Wolf

Reply #4 - 04/07/09 at 11:48:27 My friend just bought a '95 and the seller told him it was a 4 speed. its not. 4-5 is a tricky shift sometimes. You can hit a false nuetral or it just wont shift sometimes. I let the clutch out just a wee bit while pressing up on the shifter from 4-5 and it pops right into 5th.

Well, Thanks for the replies... needless to say, the title in FL list year of make and ID#. It shifts 4 speed and my new made for a '99 Raask dargpipe, well... it won't fit. It is too shallow (exhaust port) for the muffler...
Angry

I got the factory muffler and muffler bracket off easy enough.... for the first time it took a lil' longer looking for nuts, bolts and Clymers hehe

I gots a mutt!

Oh. I took apart both seats and swapped the received pad and cover to my seat pan... a weeeee tight as mine was a full 2 inches wider and the shape deeper... it is together and will pass for a factory save 2 wee ripples... It looks good and with the Raask... oops Angry

I have the K&N filter and was about to rip apart my air box.... well, the engine is getting pulled apart as I have on order jetsets and such... don't want the wrong items shipped... this sucks...

Oh well, "Buyer Beware"

... is there much difference between a '96 and a '99 (engines that is)?

Thanks

I... AM SOOOOO STUPID!

Sivert did a wonderful job! ... and the 60mm dragpipe just needs to be torque and final tightening.

After a double and a wee something! cough cough... Lips Sealed

I took another look,,, and it just ... drift... came to me how it is assembled, I had taken off the Suzuki muffler support rig .... doh Huh

... it still is currently a 4 spead/ or at least no function "gear" somewhere... so I guess I need to look at the tranny soon. I also noticed how "white" my exhaust ports were... so I guess that is next...
... off to get me a torque wrench!

So.. I will aptly rename this thread to "I am so stupid"

I have taken pictures so I will pop back to the bobber chopper thread.

(I'll attach hear later the thread)

Wo;f Embarrassed
