    1100 piston rings

    That is one of the vehicles the ones I ordered were supposed to fit. What was the thickness of the ones you got?

    Bike acts like it has a rev limiter in around 5000 rpm

    I have seen this a few times myself that cutting out running rich at 35-4500 rpm has been the air jet for the main jet plugged up, the one under the plastic piece under the slide.

    Bike acts like it has a rev limiter in around 5000 rpm

    Wasn't replying to you. Should have used the reply button. 1st of all the accelerator pump is only in effect until about 1/2 throttle. 2nd you couldn't get the synch far enough out to matter at WOT. Sounds like there is not enough fuel supply, when you let off the throttle it lets it catch up...

    Synch problem with the throttle wide open, NO. Accelerator pump problem NO. Someone needs lessons on how these carbs work. Is the air intake all original? Sure of the cam timing?

    1100 piston rings

    And the answer is no. I ordered a set to find out and didn't even have to open the box, it showed the ring thicknesses on the box and the 2nd ring was too thick so I returned them.

    1100 piston rings

    Has anyone actually tried the Suzuki esteem rings in an 1100 engine? And is there any place to get rod bearings?

    Not that I know of but a bad ground will also cause erratic symptoms.

    I know of 1 that had a bad leg of the stator that did exactly that.

    Gl1100 Front brake bleeding tip

    That is not the problem with the one I have. It for some reason doesn't allow fluid past the piston. If I put my finger over the outlet hole and pull the lever it will push fluid out but let go of the lever and the piston won't return, like I said like a plugged return hole but it's not. It is...

    Gl1100 Front brake bleeding tip

    Well believe it or not I do know some things. The MC I mentioned is bad, it doesn't work and it is the proper bore size for the 80-81 1100s. It acts like the return hole is plugged but it's not, just something not right about it.

    Gl1100 Front brake bleeding tip

    I have an aftermarket master cylinder that is bad, I didn't buy it so I don't know where it came from. I got it on a bike that was given to me. By what I can see in your pic it looks like that.

    Oil filters for synthetic oil

    Why would a filter for synthetic oil be any different when the purpose of the filter is to trap the contaminants.

    If you lean the bike on the side stand the sprocket will hang pretty close to the middle of the hole. Where do you live, could be someone is close by to give you a hand.

    Oh I've heard of that just never heard it called a timing upgrade mod. If you had called it a belt idler fix I would have known what it was.
