Nice work Chopsie! I bow to your spannerage 🙌
Thanks Andy!!
Great video.
You might wanna consider the Foil trick for your next oil change.
Just put a piece of aluminum foil over the headers. That way the oil drips on it. Then you pull it down at the end and you're left with clean pipes.
Bro I been using plastic rubbish bag going use your trick now 👍
You need some ratchet spanners John. Do you undo oil filler plug to allow oil to drain quicker?
Love your Gixxer (and overall garage/mods) vids. Lovely stuff as always
Absolutely love your workshop videos!
Thank you very much
Watching from Perth, Australia
I have enjoyed many hours of Chopsy on the tele
Cheers
Appreciated buddy 😁👍
I'm super jealous of your bike lift and tool chest! Not going to lie I laughed as the bolt jumped into the oil drain pan. We have all done that one before!
Having that machine fire up straight away after storage is a testament to how good these suzuki's are. It must be an absolute pleasure working in your garage now Chops......wait until summer because you'll be great full of that fridge 😛🍺🍺🍺
Awesome .....love it. 😊👍
Thanks Dean it is buddy 👍
Great Video, enjoyed the step by step process, and what an incredible platform you have to work with!! That’s a great looking Bike Sir!
Thanks Scott 👍
Love these bike maintenance vids- good job chopsy 👍🏍🏍👍
Love these vids chops more please. That bike looks superb given it's age you did well there.
Great to watch...i currently have a GSX 1400 with Yoshi cams but have always fancied a shot on a gsx-r 1000....they look great without the fairing!
Such a cool bike. You have a very nice garage full of lovely machines 👍👍
Should have considered ratcheting spanners over normal ones. They come in handy so much.
great bike chops let the fun begin 😍
Really need to get my bikes serviced up and trackday ready. Watching this is giving me the urge to get out in the garage and get spannering
Got a fully Built K6 1000 such a treat to ride her and she makes me smile everytime 😁
In the Suzuki tool kit there is a tank prop. These videoes make me want to make changes to my K8
Ah is there... should have checked! 👍
This is sooo satisfying to watch
Thanks Iain 👍
From Denmark here. I also got got the same k8 bike, ecu full flashed halfsystem yoshimura dobbelt system,decat, powercommander 5,oem intake filter,i have 180hp at 12300 rpm on the wheel,
Good video Lamb Chop. The bike sounds good.
Thanks Lynn
Same exhaust set up on my K8. Sounds epic. Only down side drone noise din at constant speed on say motorway.
But up and down the box sounds fantastic
Don't know if you did suspension work but I got Full Ohlins on mine makes a night and day difference chassis is rock solid now feels like a race bike no more floaty feeling just like it's on rails.
Good job , all to plan . Nice when nothing unexpected happens. Great video Chops . Looking forward to first ride impressions. 😊
….never happens like that for me!
@@TheMissendenFlyer agreed, I always have something go wrong 😑
Nice one
I have been looking at de catting my gsxr k8 for a while even have the link pipe on the shelf and was wondering what to do with the tuning side can't wait to find out how the post tune works
Better use the non rachet one to remove hard bolts. Just a tip 😉. Always bring a non rachet and a rachet. Keep them near the work and put them all back the same time when you finish the job. Good job for wiping the tool before putting it back.
I have the same bike, it's fantastic. I think the best upgrade for this bike is the suspension. Great job!
Yes that's going to happen at some point 👍
Ive been wanting to get this bike for 3 years now, im finally going for it. Hope i find a low milage one in 4 months
I got my k5 flashed by a Toshiba box by a main dealer when I fitted a slip on yoshi....no complaints , all fine ..but then a friend persuaded me to get a proper rolling road dyno setup, at Steve Jordan, and OMFG what a difference, an absolute riot of smooth midrange creamyness, the best performance mod I have ever done ..get a proper setup, not a generic flash imo
you are awesome guys! Greetings from Germany
Great vid once again 👏🏻
If you like under the passenger seat, there should be a long (12" or less) rod (some have a ring) clipped in there. It is to hold up your tank.
i have the 07 K7 gixxer. Love the bike.
what a great bike to work on
Love the garage vids an Mavis is great keep up the good work.🏍
Thanks Kevin!
The lambda probe in your case was installed upstream of the catalytic converter. Even though the catalytic converter was removed, there is no reason why the probe was chosen to be deactivated. A flange could have been welded onto the connecting pipes to keep the lambda probe active. It is a very important sensor that helps the ECU (Engine Control Unit) form the mixture in many situations, situations that would be difficult to predict or take into account by the engineers who create the injection maps with the lambda probe deactivated.
Great vid chops.. I had tools similar to urs I will get fed up with wiping and putting them back in their pockets and end up with tool tray with most used tools n sizes
Your garage setup is totally wicked... Ive heard dynojets auto tune is pretty good 😊
Great job on the new intro Chopsy , "Marvel less "lol Cheers from New Zealand
Enjoyed that very funny especially mavis😊
Hey man, there's a bleeder screw for the coolant on the back of the block that you need to bleed when changing the coolant to avoid air locks
crazy how much weight some stock exausts are, put a new one on my vfr and the weight difference is crazy and i really notice it on the road
Good to see the tools getting christened Chopsy .👍😁 The gsxr is sounding great be good to see it on the road .👍 good to see Mavis losing her hair with your double entendres.😁😁
Great video, Chops, I guess the Catalytic Converter isn't really thrown away - bloody annoying to get and hammers resell value (speaking from experience!)
🎉I see Hyper parts up on the top of the cabinets!
Sounds meaty!
Phew, that was exactly what I needed. Motorcycle content with mods, humor and more. Think I need a cigarette after watching Chops manhandle his, umm…never before used new tools😂 Thank you that was a good video👏
Thanks Dukie appreciated buddy 👍
@@LambChopRides The valve is going to oscillate. You take one of the cables and hook it back up to the side that pins it open, loosen the bracket mounting bolt, coil the cable around the bolt once or twice, going over top of the bolt, and then tighten the nut down hard. Then clip off the extra. This prevents all oscillation. We have to do it on the hondas since the htev in full crossover is more complicated, is not spring loaded, and is much smoother flow than removing. On the 929 and 954s.
Man, you have no idea how difficult it has been to find an unmolested k7-k8 GSXR in my area here in the States. Very jealous of your beautiful bike!
Very interesting, clever system, there's some clever people about, the cost sounds extremely reasonable,
There is what the heart loves and then there is owning a GSXR 1000 except no substitute.
Chops you big stud you, you did a great job servicing the old girl 😃.
Haha like what you did there 😁👍
Bro these videos are too! Super happy that Bruce (teapotone) showed me your channel!
Question: I would love to watch more for THE GREAT HUNT series y’all did! Can we expect anymore of that type of content!
Anyways amazing and funny! Love it!
Yeah we need to organise a new Big Hunts, thanks Brad 👍
@@LambChopRides always man! Love the content!! Also the editing is top notch!
Thanks buddy 👍
I have the k5 and there is a rod that is bent to a certain shape to hold the tank up. The rod is placed to the side of the area where you fiddled with the ecu. It is hard to notice at first as it clips to the side well.
OK will have a look 👍
How good does that bike look just goes to show you you don't need 20k bikes unless you are a riding god
Thx for the episode, learned a lot ! Can you get it MOTed without a cat ?!!
Yes no legal mot requirement for bikes in the UK 👍
I have the same bike and I can't wait to do a cat delete on mine. Great video.
Gotta be honest the K8 passed me by because my lust for the K5/6,
But yours is giving me a bit of a fizz for one, dam pretty bike, enhanced Chops style 🤙 keep it up big man 👊😎
Yeah she's proper naughty now 😜
Agree, the K5 is a better looking gixxer. :D
Great vid Sir Chops, loving the new garage , I'm a bit behind with the vids , I have my Gixxer mot due next week , I'll get my oil and filter done before hand , my 7 year old daughter loves to get involved to bless her, she loves a tinker . 👍
Nice name and bike 👌
@@GSXRWayne 🤣👍🏻you too
Chopsy, I've got a 1000 k5 decat with a single Lextek pipe and never had a problem at track days, even without the baffle. Reckon you'll be fine. Incidentally the baffle robs nearly 30hp from my top end at the back wheel...! Who needs rain mode!? 😂
Hi Lamby when will you post a vid testing the gixxer k8 with the mods all done! Will be interesting to see what difference they make
Oh my, please cover those headers 🙏
Love the garage videos! Question: is cat-removal road legal in the UK? Aren't you going to have issues with MOT's or if you're getting pulled over?
No emissions test for bikes on the mot in the uk
No law against removal on bikes. Cars have to have for MOT.
Good evening Chop love your channel and videos just bought a 2023 1000RZ and your dual arrow exhaust system looks amazing. Congratulations. Can you please send me the info where I could purchase? I am in the USA New York area. THANKS
Great video mate... Did you know there is a tank prop under the rear seat cowl next to the tool kit (well my k7 gsxr1000 did)
Yeah I will check that thanks 👍
Hey chop, you need to know that you have placed the filter upside down, mate!
Also, consider using a spanner to undue the sump rather than a ratchet. These sump are weak on the thread side and are known to strip due to the steel sump bolt.
You also need to bleed the coolant system, too.
Good luck, mate,
Alex from Sydney Australia
P.s. The Fuchs oil box has been designed to be used instead of removing the bladder, 😆
It's been designed to be used just like a cask of wine you buy from your local.
No that's the correct way up, it had a this way up marker on it. Remember the air is flowing up from underneath. Also the bolt to secure it is in the middle of the airbox lid 👍
Loving the commentary 😅😅
I don’t suppose you can remember the size of the clamp you used to join the decat pipe to the headers? About to decat mine and want shiny new clamps
LOL yes Chopsy thanks for the laugh as usual - good to see Mavis hahah
Nice upload Chopsie, loving the new set up you have 👍 Did you weigh the cat and pipes changed, it would be interesting to see how much weight you saved?
No I didn't, it was at least 2.5 kg though saved I would guess..
@@LambChopRides that's definitely worth having, as well as performance and audio gains 👍
Throttle side of bike underneath pillion seat ,there should be a tank prop holder from factory plastic clip holds it in handy for holding tank while cleaning filter ect .Yss rear shock ,budget upgrade for K8 chalk and cheese over stock 1 ,Like your K8 looks tidy 👍Also slide forks thru triple clamps till just end cap petruding especially if running 55 profile rear tyre .mite need to back fork preload off after raising height of front end ,something I wish I'd done sooner ,80 kg rider without leathers 😂 ,Def clothed ...
Just a quick one that may have already been mentioned.
I noticed when you took the airfilter out there looks like there is a self tapping screw missing which holds the air filter down.
This might be important for sealing the air filter down and why you might have grit after it.
I might be wrong but deffo looks like something should be there.
The filter is held down with the centre airbox lid screw 👍
@@LambChopRides ahhh thats good then!
Chopsy get yourself a small 1/4 electric ratchet. Good for all the small bolts and screw bits 👊
Yeah been after one of those 👍
love it
I always seem to pull up to gsxr1000s at traffic lights, sometimes i leave them but yesterday these two guys were off like a missile 🤣
Haha they are quick!! 😁👍
"This sockets a virgin, bloody hell this is tight" 😂
What about your O2 sensor thats on the cat?
Great video as always, but would it be better to Dyno your bike rather than a flash ecu.
Yes of course it would, full custom dyno map allways going to be better. That's providing you have a decent dyno shop doing the work
Whinced when you attacked the sump plug - 'wot knuckles?' You're unscrewing a seated thread, not twisting it off the block - line up the torque needed, hold firmly, then 'nudge' : )
The cat really did knock the mid-range compared to the k5/6, very interested to hear what you think of the changes - you could normally feel the difference if a bike had been decatted, even with std gearing...yours should really shift ! Lithium batteries are a great weight saving and you can leave them for months, no trickle charge and they'll still have loads of charge, unlike lead gel and agm batteries........loving this series ❤
Lithium batteries are a fire risk.
Lithium batteries are a great upgrade , will never use anything else now .
Thanks Nick 👍
If it's a decent brand, the charging system operating properly there is very little risk. I've been running LiFePO4 batteries for many years on my bikes and would use nothing else now...unless it was an old hack !!
@@bananabrooks3836 lifepo4 are very very safe and behave well in a load of scenarios, I shaved 2 kg from that and it works awesome, very punchy on the starter.
Much easier if you leave the bag of oil in the box and just pull the neck of it through the top! Top real world maintenance content though, Chops!
Yeah your right 👍
Chopsie! Can yu ride a k5/k6 and let me know what you think please mate
4:03 the first time you opened your tool drawer in anger, what a moment, sorry John I am a bit strange when it comes to things like that 🙃
😂 OMG, the first 7 min was laughing my ass off, from nearly stripping oil drain plug, covering your hands in oil to violating your new tools 😂
On serious note that is very nice setup man, like Moto Gp style
You probably should google the issue with K&N oil filters, they have been banned from many race tracks due to them leaking at the nut. I wouldn't use anything but an OEM oil filter and use the respective "cap" tool which allows you to use a socket to remove and torque them.
OK interesting 👍
I wonder if it's because people are overtighting the filter with the nut when fitting.. I only use the nut to remove it
Could well be. There was a period where they were using rivet style construction for adding the nut plate. I believe they swapped to welding the plate on. It may well be rectified now, but the issue is well documented and for the same money oem can not have this issue.
Good lord Chops, you could have given us a not safe for work warning 😂..
Haha sorry 🤣👍
What brand is the cat delete? I'm looking to buy one from the brand dominatoR, it sells on bay too and looks decent
No idea sorry it was secondhand, I'm assuming it's Arrow..
First rookie mistake, not putting gloves on until you got oil on your! lol Lovely bike (wouldn't it be great if Suzuki made a limited run fun on version similar to what Honda do with the blade s) beautiful garage and lovely tools, agree about the lithium battery and maybe consider a 4-1? please be careful not to let people know where you live.
Casanova Chops. Taking all those virginities...... A real motorcycle lothario!
Is the translogic quickshifter plug and play or do you need any flash/mapping or power commander?
No plug and play 👍
What yr front calipers are those off of?
I'd have opted for a single link pipe and gone in to one silencer - looks better and saves even more weight. One of my bikes is a 750 K8 with a decat and Racefit Titanium end can but I'm considering fitting a K7 decat/silencer because the noise it makes at the moment is outrageous. Stay safe.
Yeah but the twin setup looks 👌
Anthony I have the exact same bike and set up does the k7 cat and pipe fit? I was look at the gp evo k7 pipe you know if it fits?
@@MrLillywhite2011 No don't think so , the k8 system is all one with the collector box being part of the down pipes . I bought a K7 cat which has the silencer attached but it doesn't fit the down pipes that are on my bike. I suspect the down pipes on my bike are K7 which have been fitted by a previous owner but when I offer up the K7 cat it simply will not fit. The underside of the bike is different and the brackets are in a different place. Only solution is a full K8 system. Hope that makes sense.
@@anthonywhite23 thanks alot mate 👍
Does changing the sprockets affect speedo reading? Great content btw 👍
Yeah it now over reads slightly, might need a speedo healer to fix it..
I just purchased a mint condition 1000cc k-5 edition with 16300 miles. I'm not at all interested in top end speed but very interested in low-end and mid range torque. The dealer replaced the chain and rear sprocket. Can I accomplish more low and mid-torque by replacing the front sprocket?
Did u oil the high flow airfilter? If not that might be the reason that grit comes trough.
No that ones just a paper one, no oil needed
Maybe me ocd mr chops but is there not a screw for the air filter ❤
Yes it in the middle of the airbox lid 👍
Great video as usual Chops! I have a question... Do you recommend P3 tuning as reputable... My new bike is a 22' MV Agusta Brutale 800rr and as you know, aftermarket-anything is rare with those bikes and so is tuning. I'm in the US and never heard of the few tuners recommended for ecu flash tune. So P3 tuning is a good deal or nah?
Yes I would absolutely recommend them but sending an ECU from the US could be risky.. I have heard good things from Brent Tuning in the US, they do postal flashes?
@Lamb Chop Rides yea I've talked to them as well. They offered to do a baseline map. But I'm not sure if that involves me bringing the bike to them or if it's a mail-in service. It's all experimental with the mvs. I know they have started building tunes for the brutale 1000rr. Waiting to hear back from them on more info. Thanks chops for your input and keep the videos coming. 🤘🏾‼️
My apologies for not speaking the Queens english, what is the name of the site that sells the tool organizer? Thanks mate
The tools come already in the foam tool trays. Search tool trays on the Halfords website 👍
We call that stage 2
What year is it?
Also downside to bench flash is no b4 and after dyno to see where u gained...
Yes true but that's only pub talk, riding is where it matters 😉
@Lamb Chop Rides totally agree my good man think it's just I'd like to know gains and where gains are.. look out for ur update vid
WATCH OUT CHOPSIE,
Not sure but it seems you forgot to pin down the air filter with the screws and lock wire the exhaust valve because the exhaust gases could overpower the spring and start juttering
At 16:36 in the vid you can see the screw hole in the air filter located in front and between the 2 throttlebody inlets.
The filter is held down by the screw in the middle of the airbox lid 👍 lock wire on the exhaust flap is a good call though 👌
Where did you buy your toolbox and tools from, what a set up
All Halfords tools which come in the tool trays
Thanks Chopsie, Garage is looking amazing. I need to watch you garage build, it's awesome. Keep up the amazing work.
Could you let me no how the flash went I got k7 and want a reflash. Thanks Rob
Yes absolutely I will no problem
