Gobert Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 The rumours I've heard say yes with a bit of clutch case moding - try gixxer.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobert Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 From another forum........ Confirmed on GIXER.COM..... The K5, K6, K7,K8 and K9 1000 slipper clutch fits the K1-K4 Only mod required is a small amount of metal removal on a strengthening web on the inside of the K4 cover.....or fit a K5 cover...............

Murky6 Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Is it a straight forward swap of parts? And what was the the rough cost to do it? Edited coz I is a Goon lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriGGer Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Yes, it's fairly straight forward. You need a complete unit (inner and outer, plus steel and fibre plates, diaphragm springs and lifter, flat and concave backing springs etc. See here for an exploded view. -> http://www.ronayers.com/Fiche/TypeID/26/Type//MakeID/2/Make/Suzuki/YearID/47/Year/2006/ModelID/7527/Model/GSX_R1000/GroupID/330868/Group/CLUTCH_ And K5/6 clutches have an over heavy "clutch plate wave washer" #14 in the above diagram. Change it for this -> http://www.ronayers..../687/SKU/351361 And while you're there, there are three extra oil splash holes not drilled in the back plate of the K5/6 basket, so it's worth drilling them out too. Take a look here -> Not my picture, but it makes the point. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark/Foggy Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Not my picture, but it makes the point. HTH Thought tht was a masonry bit when I first saw it, nearly fainted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriGGer Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 The piccy is pinched from gixxer.com, hence the imperial sized drill. I always use a Hilti with an SDS bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark/Foggy Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Ohh can you get Blue anodised Hiltis, I'd love a blue nail gun for putting fairings on with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
