I ride an 01 750 and am on my 4th motor. I run 20+ sprocket in the rear and beat the **** out it. I think doing spreaders and highchairs at high rpm's kill the motor over time,you know the engine braking wheelies. I tend to rock the revlimiter a lot. even doing feet on the ground burnouts on the limiter have blow my motors. I now have a stuntex pickup (not in yet but I will put it in when I get my bike back from my welder after he fixes my subframe again!)
I heard the stuntex pickups are good and solve the problem. now I just gott stay off the rev limiter but how can I it is so fun. I will be posting a video of my motor blowing and sending the piston right through the case soon. It was fun but costly

You don't have to stunt to blow motors.
My friends 03 gsxr 1k blew a rod just riding it normal.
Oil level was fine, started ticking, tried to make it home and locked up the rear wheel and downed the bike.
Bike was totaled when he went down. I thought Suzuki should of payed for it, but insurance took care of it because of the accident due to the engine locking up....go figure?

Oh...the stories I could tell. I could send shivers...

I think drag bikes use additonal lower rev rev-limiter to do burnouts, just because doing them at the real limit would destroy the motor.

This kinda device could be great for stuntbikes. Just press button and your rev limiter drops to e ~ 9k, this gives the limiter effect when it's cutting off, but still those revs are much safer for the motor.

At high revs the oil turns to foam and oil pump cavitates.

you can buy a 2 stage rev limiter

RUSH.

Keep the Rpm down, move the oil pickup and run an extra quart. problem solved

i have a 2g 750 and im on my third motor and second tranny. i personally think they are strong running as long as theyre running but they dont last because suzuki uses hollow everything or lightweight this and that to make the bike lighter so in the long run it just dies on ya.

I think it depends if your bike was built on a monday, friday, or a less painful day of the week

my 02 750 has 19k on orig motor (even the clutch) it's been -2 + 11 most of it's life. The balance point light.....I mean the ummmm oil light spends most of its time starring me in the eye while I ride

I run belray 20/50 synthetic blend +1 quart and it's perfect. make sure you put in an APE racing cam chain tensioner too! that'll save your *** in the long run.

True dat!
01+/600 has a design prob w/ the valve keeper....valve tip brakes away from the stem, causing catstrophic engine damage. This is a COMMON problem on the roadracing circuit.
00/750 has a weak/hollow shift shaft that breaks.
00-03/750 have weak clutch basketts and trannies.
1K's love to spin crank/rod bearings

frames are poorly designed in regard to crashes, and even brake apart w/out crashing...weak!

Suzukis have the worst reliabilty and warranty service of all the makes

im going honda for sure next time.
