Скачать или смотреть 3D Printing a Hayabusa & GSXR1000 Tank Block-Off Plate | ABS vs PETG Test

This video isn’t a how-to — it’s a look at how I’m using 3D printing in my motorcycle shop to solve real problems and save time.

I needed a fuel tank block-off plate for diagnosing leaks and cleaning rusty tanks on late-1990s to mid-2000s Suzuki Hayabusa (GSXR1300) and GSXR1000 models. In the past, that meant cutting up plastic cutting boards and making one-off templates — it worked, but it wasted time.

So I designed and 3D printed one instead.

In this video, I show:
Why I originally chose PETG
What happened when it was exposed to acids
Why I switched to ABS after real-world testing
How this tool fits into my day-to-day shop workflow

This isn’t a permanent bike part — it’s a shop and garage diagnostic tool, meant for leak testing and tank cleaning only.

The ABS block-off plate shown in the video is now available for sale on eBay for shop or personal garage use.

If you’re into 3D printing, automotive applications, or practical shop tools, this is a real example of how printed parts can earn their place on the bench.
