Glad to hear you got those header bolts out in the end! Must have taken a few hours and several mugs of contemplative coffee - tenacity wins in the end. Superb paint job too 👏

yet another great video, keep them coming!

The work is looking very good , the paint job is very nice and you’re cracking on with it I think. I had problems removing my bandit headers, I snapped some bolts off then snapped an easy out so I had to get the rest spark eroded out at work… My bandit is the same as yours, colour etc, the engine will be sweet in your GSXR chassis.

Great work. Love the perseverance 👍👍

I can not wait for the next video. What a great series. I did a semi restoration about 12 years ago on my 86 GSXR. No way as bad as this one, but i can relate to certain problems.

Another excellent video. I am always impressed with your perseverance. Clearly you have self trained yourself to be a very capable spray painter so there is no reason why a little practice you can't develop enough basic weld skills needed for this type of repair. Visual appearance is not important only strength with this. Clearly access in this case is a major issue. Maybe you could have drilled out a nut so that it just slides over the cap head and then weld in the centre as weld "blobs" on the outside might foul on the header.

Excellent tutoriage excellent job 😎👍

A good tip for getting out stripped Allen head bolts, put some valve grinding paste in the hex shaped hole, and then that will make the Allen key grip and that will help in getting them out, also PLENTY of heat at the point where the threads are in the cylinder head.

put a nut on the bolt head, and fill the inside of the nut with weld. works a treat

Great stuff as always. You should have 10 times the subscribers you currently do. I'll do my part to spread the word...👍

You could unbolt the removable part of the frame for easy access to cylinders 3+4.

Im no drip under pressure get help with exhaust that could get pear shaped enjoy your video learning so much

Masterpiece video! Regards from Sweden

Remove the frame section with the Allen bolts to improve your access to the header bolts.

Hi there, there’s not much resale value in the frame and title , you could cut the front frame tubes off for better access, good luck. I spent about 10 hours getting my studs out 👍🏻

Why not just use the 750 wiring harness, it will plug straight into everything on the 1200 engine? Don't worry about the TPS on the carbs cause I'm pretty sure it does nothing anyway. People say it retards ignition on wide throttle openings in lower gears but given they don't have a gear position sensor, it sounds like horse 5hit to me.

You talk too much man
