chatting with suzuki tech

[mreedohio]

i dropped some parts off today and started to talk to guys at the shop about more performance out of the kat and they suggested the next thing i should do is head work(port/polish),Webb Camshafts im ammusing the 89GSX750,stage 3 jet and ignition advanced,sprocket change and they said it would cost $600 for headwork,$450 for cams,$20 for the sprocket and i already have a stage 3 kit sitting in my basement so it would be that plus installation. what do you guys think?

my mechanic to me that if i wanted to go faster .... "buy a new bike!"

That would be the route I would take

[BarMatt80]

yeah plus a 130 mph to 200 mph really isn't a feature i have used or probably will use on a bike atleast. But getting there faster is nice.

Ditto...new bike.

that is roughly the price of a transplanted b12 or kat 1100 engine. another route i would rather seek.

but if you go that route, make sure you report back with pre and post dyno runs.

[WyredHardware]

I have to agree wit the guys. Keep the ket for crusing and pick up something else for going zoooom

[fireman1724]

Yeah If You Are Thinking About All Of That You More Than Likely Bought The Wrong Bike

BUSA, the best of both worlds. The power and speed as well as the comfort for long rides.

Are you willing to put over $1.5k in a piece of machinery that's 15 years old?

i just got my head ported and polished, cams, and everything. i wouldn't have done it if i couldn't have got the porting done for free

[mreedohio]

Thanks redkatana

[il_ragazzo]

i dont really need to go any faster than 130... but i definatly would like less 0-60 time... ya know...

[kwebbel]

going that route will provide you with some very expensive ponies....
You'd better upgrade too a faster bike.

[The CyberPoet]

IMHO: bigger engine (Bandit 1200) or different bike.

You're looking at spending in excess of $150 per HP gained.

If he's upgraded/reworked suspension and brakes, and is willing to do a swingarm swap so he may use a wider tyre I be with you on the big-bore Marc, otherwise I think that allso a waste off money.
