Thank you. It is a hoot to ride!! Need to tweak a few little things and it should be good for a while. Want to try a little more paddle posibbly? Or play with gearing. Really comfortable duner. The bike is so smooth with the power. I can't believe it. Love how the bike handles with the coil-overs. Slight tweak in those and that should be good. So glad I finally built one. Have wanted to for years. Well worth it!!!
Has me thinking about my other Zilla? Debating on doing something similar with it. Not sure. Also toyed around with getting rid of the 500 and building a DS650 with a litre motor. Or another TRX 250R duner. Who knows. But right now I love my GSXR Zilla!!!!!

Looks good, like the attention to detail !!
Let us know how the swinger holds up.
BTW what does a +4 from pro performance run?
Thanks

ive got some 25" 81-82 roll out 14 paddle and 16 paddle staggard extremes. on 9x9 wheels. but they are a 4/115 pattern. if you run z400 hubs. you could ream the holes a little and get them to fit.

I saw that you posted them on Planet Sand. Very tempting!!! Just need to free up some cash. Went through it putting this bike together!! Will definetely check back in with you when I have some more funds and see if you have them...
Think all swingers are around $375 ish??? prices posted on their website.

Here's a few reassembly pics. I wanted to post as it went back together but it was a mad dash to get it ready in @ 2 days and in the trailer headed south for Oregon!!! Started the reassembly @ 7:45 am and fired the bike and rode it at @ 10:30 pm that night!!! Next day finished the odds and ends and rolled it in the trailer mid day basically.
The thing that gave us the most issue was the slave cylinder on the hydralic clutch. Took about 2.5 hours to get the damn thing to bleed!!! We tried everything. And I do mean everything! We were just about to give up and say the bike wasn't going for the trip and then BAM!, it started building pressure finally.
Need to wire in the electrical for the tail light and provision for a head light if I want to run one at some point.
Fun build. I want to do another one at some point...

Did a little wrenching on the bike to take care of a few little things. I have a feeling it will be an ongoing project! Rerouted fuel lines a bit, moved some wiring etc... Trying to figure out the lighting. I am going to switch it over to a thumb throttle too. Not sure if that will happen before Labor Day though. Going to hook up with Tim from Marvin Shaw down there to fine tune the coil overs too. Hopefully I will have a chance to try out my buddies 25" staggered 14 pdl extremes as well on it!!!
Can't wait to throw my leg over it again and GO!!!!!!!! I'll be down Coos Bay/Spinreel/Boxcar Labor weekend. Keep an eye out for us!!

Down at Box Car right now with the bikes right now. We have both Zilla's and the two Hybrid 1100 Zilla's. Lots of fun already had and more to come. Working on some video. I wish I was more of a techy with that stuff. Gonna try and spend some time later today and get it on here hopefully...
Let's go RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bike ran extremely well again. Loving this thing more and more each outing. Played with the pressures in the Shaw's a little and they are getting dialed in even better. Tim and his son Jr are great to deal with! They were down for the weekend doing some "R&D" which worked out great for me.
Ran the bike for a bit at the flats with a bunch of other bikes and took it for a long dune ride.
Going to try a different rear tire setup next hopefully soon!!
Drag races in Monroe in a few weeks and will be running the bike there...

Let's just say that it is fuel injected and more of a duner...
Working alittle bit here and there on the 1100. Starting to move the bike more towards a dragger. Not really a track bike. Just grudge running out on the flats. New axle coming for the bike and going to a larger tire and more paddles. (80-84 RO and 14-16 paddles)

I'm sure this is probably a dumb question but why do a lot of people choose the Busa engine for these drag builds? Is it just because it's a great bang for the buck or is it the most powerful engine you guys can cram into them? LOL All I know is you guys are CRAZY!

I had thought about a 'Busa set up at one time. The cost is what turned me off finally. For the price that you pay for a engine, harness etc... you can buy a complete liter bike. Whos know, maybe one day I will play with one.
Really liking my 1100 set up. Seems bullet proof. Really looking forward to the new build we are starting too!!! It's gonna be fun to build.
