OK guys, I have been looking at all the different post and trying to come up with a set up that would offer alot more horses than stock. I spun a rod bearing in mine and now im trying to come up with a winter plan.I have a 2000 and bone stock with 20k on it. The only thing that I did was slip ons for a little noise.
I'm seeing all different numbers with different options of mods. One is getting over 200hp with just head work and cams. Another is about the same with the 1397 kit. Another not far from them with the 1397 kit and crank. Then I find a post to just do a 5mm stroker crank and stock bore. I was first think of just doing a big bore kit 1397. Then the reserch leads me to the 08 crank and bump it to a 1441. Being I will probably need a crank,thats not a bad idea.
So I narrow it down to the 1397 kit with the 08 crank and find out the hp #s arnt far off from the good head work and cams. SO is it worth the extra $$$$ to do the 1397 kit a crank? I will also need an exhaust,all the little mods,pair and air filter,power commander.THEN, while I have the motor open I should get the tranny cut,get the swivel oil pick up so I dont spin another rod bearing, the clutch will need help.I wasnt expecting to have to take a second morgage out.All the mods add up to more than the bike is actual worth,BUT its my baby and plan to keep it for a long time so Im figuring on doing this once.
I would like to hit around 220-230hp. I would like reliability.Like we all do. I am more of the twisty guy and track day. I read up on the turbos and dont want to go that way. Like someone posted in the many post I read. You never see a turboed bike in road racing. I use it daily for transpartation to and from work. I do road trips occasionally,and back road blast.
SORRY for rambling. ANY THOUGHTS,OR COMMENTS THAT MAY HELP? Maybe something I forgot?
