    Not quite stock anymore, 3mm overbore with 12.5:1 pistons, megacycle cams, 1mm oversize intake valves, ported heads, rotating parts micro finished and low friction coating applied, 1 3/4" 4-2-1 titanium exhaust.

    Just wondered if anybody has built anything and used the 36mm set, I'm leaning towards bustin down a rack of 38mm from a 900rr and using them.

    Well, I only paid $400 for the ol girl, so I'll still have less into er than a new bike. I'm also swapping the front end, bracing the swingarm, F2 rear wheel, and have a fox twin clicker Jamie D rebuilt for me. I'm going to be importing her into a country that taxes anything over 200cc 100% of the current bb value, so this way I'll have a bike setup exactly how I want and not have to worry about wasting a bunch of money on taxes. Not to mention that for me, there's just no substitute for the sound of that V4 when you put the throttle to er
