Parts for famous out-of-production bikes are available with the "Discontinued Parts Project"

ADVANTAGE is a brand that releases numerous parts such as high-performance suspensions, brakes, and original wheels. They have launched the "Discontinued Parts Project" in response to the recent tight supply of parts for out-of-production bikes. For bikes that are no longer in production, maintenance is crucial before even thinking about customization. And if the necessary parts are not available, that maintenance will become impossible.

Here, we will introduce some of the lineup of parts that ADVANTAGE has to offer for a bike they are particularly good at, the SUZUKI GSX1100S KATANA. First is the renewed clutch kit. This 8-item set includes a machined pressure plate, HUB, disc plates, springs, judder springs, spring seats, and ring stopper. This high-performance model offers excellent operability. Inner parts have also been developed for those who want to ride with stock MIKUNI carburetors, such as jets that wear down by rubbing against the needles, and diaphragms whose rubber can harden over time. This is truly a very exciting project for those who love out-of-production bikes.

ADVANTAGE MIKUNI Needle Jet 001

■ Price (including tax): 19,800 JPY
Needle jets wear out by rubbing against the needle when the throttle is turned on and off. Since they are a central part of the carburetor, they should be replaced with new ones to maintain good performance.

ADVANTAGE MIKUNI Pilot Jet 001

■ Price (including tax): 5,520 JPY
Pilot jets affect throttle performance from fully closed to fully open. They are composed of several precise, extremely fine holes, and clogging or deformation of these holes can cause malfunction. Replacing them with brand new ones will give you peace of mind.

ADVANTAGE MIKUNI Throttle Valve 001

■ Price (including tax): 52,800 JPY
For negative-pressure type throttle valves the diaphragm rubber hardens over time. If the diaphragm is damaged, repair is almost impossible, so these are very useful parts.
