|
|
Hi, I have SB6#254 and it is getting an engine overhaul and I am in need of a head gasket... now the one sent from suzuki is for engine type U709 and my engine is, apparently, type U712 (numbers have been relayed to me via engine builder).
Does anyone have the correct Suzuki part number for the head gasket or indeed engine gasket set for this engine...suzuki NZ say it is an unusual engine and have no record of a type U712....which worries me somewhat!!
Can anyone shed any light onto the numbers and the differences or even better, a part number for the required head gasket?
many thanks |

I doubt it's a TL1000 engine if it's in a SB6 _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |

I'm not sure about the 'U' numbers but the engine should be out of the GSXR1100 W model. A Suzuki dealer should be able to identify it. _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |

So if I search online for GSX-R1100WR it gives me two options; GSX-R1100WR(E2)R and GSX-R1100WR(E28)R. are there any differences that would make one more likely than the other? |

scratch that last question...apparently its differences not related directly to the engine. |

OK - the engines for the SB6 were supplied by Suzuki who put on a different engine code (U712) but the engines are GSXR1100W … the MK1 Sb6 has the 1993 type and Mk 2 or later uses the later 95 type which has the extra frame mount to the rear of the engine head.
Very late Suzukis used a revised camshaft profile which was a "Yoshi" type. You can fit 750W cams to get a similar effect, the other cam lobes aren't centered on the cam buckets.
It's a good idea to check which cams are fitted to your engine - look for a letter stamped into one end - beware the C cams … they're restricted to 100bhp …. ask me how I know that's how Bimota restricted these bikes _________________ Don't read everything you believe |
