STAGE 38 Area you are working on Detail

The stand

bobbins

Paddock stand

Stand bobbins × 2

2.3 × 16mm screws × 3

Tools Prepare

Phillips screwdriver

Tapping wrench/2.3mm tap or screw

Swingarm (Stage 37)

Your parts

To keep the Hayabusa light, it was

designed without a centre stand. This

can be a problem when it comes to

maintenance or storage, as a side

stand, which it did have, will give you

limited access to the side of the bike,

and a side stand leans the bike over,

which means that it takes up more

space. Supplied with your model is an

example of a paddock stand, which is

separate from the bike and takes the

place of a centre stand.

Take the swingarm from Stage 37 and tap

the two holes at the bottom (circled), with

a 2.3mm screw or tap. Insert one of the 2.3 × 16mm screws

through one of the stand bobbins. Make

sure that you get the orientation of the

bobbin correct, as shown above.

126

SUZUKI GSX 1300R Hayabusa: Assembly Guide

Insert the end of the screw into one of the

tapped holes in the swingarm.

Place the paddock stand on a at

surface, and align the bobbins on the

swingarm with the bobbin hooks at the

top of the stand.

Move the swingarm up and down with the

bobbins in the hooks to ensure that the

movement is smooth and aligned.

Repeat Steps 2-4 to t the second bobbin

to the swingarm.

Tighten the 2.3 × 16mm screw into place,

securing the bobbin to the swingarm.

Place the bobbins into the hooks,

as shown.

The ends of the 2.3 × 16mm screws

should be protruding through the holes

on the inside of the swingarm by about

the amount shown in the inset (circled).

Tighten the screws until you cannot turn

the bobbins with your ngers.

This stage is now complete. The paddock

stand will be an essential tool throughout

the rest of the assembly work.

STAGE 39 Area you are working on Detail

The rear

subframe and

frame alignment

Rear subframe

2.3 × 6mm self-tapping

screws × 12

2 × 6mm self-tapping

screws × 3

Tools Prepare

File Frame assembly (Stage 37)

Elastic bands

Cutting mat (with grid)

Pen

Your parts

Check the edges of the highlighted

hole in the centre of the rear subframe

to check that they are smooth. If you

nd any sharpness or roughness, use a

le to remove it.

Above the Hayabusa’s rear fender

is a reinforced resin subframe with

an aluminium alloy rail around it to

ensure the rigidity of the component.

Including this lightweight alternative

signicantly reduced the overall weight

of the bike, thereby contributing to its

handling and ease of maintenance.

Because the 2.3 × 6mm self-tapping screws

and 2 × 6mm self-tapping screws are so

similar in size, it’s best to keep them in the

bags that they come in, labelled with the

stage number and their size.

Tip

128

SUZUKI GSX 1300R Hayabusa: Assembly Guide

Prepare the main frame assembly from Stage 37, and place

it on a cutting mat. In the time since it was assembled, the

bridges may have moved or warped. Placing it over the grid

of the cutting matt allows you to make sure the lines are all

parallel. In the image above, you can see that frame bridge

C is slightly misaligned with the others.

If you do nd that the frames or bridges are out of

alignment, try moving the frames around to see where

they need to be in order to align the bridges.

When the correct position is found, t additional elastic

bands to hold the frames in that place.

This stage is now complete. Check

the positions of the frames and

bridges every two weeks – you may

need to add or remove elastic bands

as necessary.

With the bands added here,

frame bridge C is pulled into

alignment with the others

Remember that these are

example images, and that your

model will dier from them

and may not need adjustment.

The battery box

Battery box

Cam chain tensioner hose

Tools Prepare

Phillips screwdriver AAA batteries × 3

Pen

Your parts

The battery box of the model is

incorporated into the rear subframe

supplied with Stage 39. This box will

power the lights on the bike, and will

be discreetly hidden away when the

fairings are tted.

Remove the screw

holding the backing plate

onto the battery box.

SUZUKI GSX 1300R Hayabusa: Assembly Guide

This stage is now complete. Store any unused parts, along

with the battery box, safely to one side.

Remove the backing plate from the battery box.

Place a further two batteries into the battery box, again

matching the positions shown inside the box.

You will notice that the positions of the batteries are

marked inside the battery box.

The points at which the power cable attaches to the

battery box are fragile, so take care when handling it.

Place an AAA battery into the rst section of the battery

box, matching the position marked on the box.

Treat the ends

with care
