Providing you are on the 71.5mm stroke crank then it is OEM Hayabusa main bearings and Honda Blackbird big end bearings. They are different sizes available so you need to measure your clearances to su...

It should just be twist connector John. You can see a version in this video (Nothing to do with me!) at around 6min 30seconds. You can also see he had a bit a struggle undoing it as they lock/clock ...

@kuddby-racing Per, so it is showing that the GCU is getting a signal from the paddles as it is showing a spark cut. I am not sure if they could be anything wrong with a driver in the box which means...

You are not running a Life system. As you say it is an MBE ECU but your paddleshift is controlled by a Geartronics unit. You need the Geartronics software and a USB lead to connect, with this you can ...

@bluefunelement I go for the spray bottle as I just feel its more value for money. Spray on and leave for 10/15 mins then going over with a cloth spreading it out, removing excess and working it into...

I don't run cars so not the best person to answer this but personally I would be going over the car with ACF50. Its a water replant that protects from corrosion etc. The only thing to avoid with this...

As mentioned this is normal, due to the design of the gearbox. The gears all have 'dogs' on which engage with each other as you shift gear. This all works well as the gears and shafts are all spinning...

The ratios are the same in the even in the updated engine - standard Hayabusa. That sounds to me like it is jumping out of gear under high load which is very strange to see. Feel free to send me over ...

I forgot to mention the dry cranking, that certainly wont help. As you say I wouldnt say it is needed unless the car has sat for a while. Unplugging the crank sensor (2 pin plug coming out of the gene...

@pugdaddy Ideally yes but have a measure up and see if you can confirm which part is worn the most!

Unfortunately you can get wear here that allows them to blow, the easiest but most expensive way is to replace the required parts. If you can find a local exhaust manufacture they maybe able to reshap...

Interesting that Motul are discontinuing the 15W-50, not something I was aware of. @rjbender interesting info reference our conversation, might explain why they have the change in recommendation. I am...

I don't believe that pinout has changed in general in terms of coils, spark, injectors etc. The plug you refer to will be for the paddle shift I believe which may not be detailed in early diagrams. If...

@smoothcriminal Not good to see! Do you have any history on the engine, like when it was rebuilt? Who buy? Did it have a seal on it? There does not look to be any detonation that I can see in those p...

@meatman Agreed, no balance weight. You should just be able to bolt it in place as detailed above, this will just hold it in place.
