Thank you it does help. I had found those on oem sites. It was the reason I was looking for alternative. They all spec 10 days for delivery once they processed the order. Honestly I just wanted it up and running this weekend so I had a week of riding before a surgery that is going to keep me off...
Hey all,
I am looking for a local alternative to ordering OEM and waiting 10 or so days. I’m ready to get this thing together.

I need the washer for the side head bolt. It’s the bolt that goes between the cam Cain. I don’t even know what it looks like to go find one. The manual...
Thanks! I did the dual fan mod last year. I live in Texas and was commuting 45 min in killer traffic all summer. Was t really over heating, but the heat coming up was over heating me. Lol
Update:
Listen to most of y’all and stuck with the stock pistons/rings. Went with a cnc ported and polished valve job and new cams. Hopefully soon (6months) I’ll be able to go with a big bore. The machine shop was great. Showed me the issues where things went wrong why and how. Looks to be too...
Thank you 202mphbusa!
update:
I have pulled motor, head, cylinder and taken to a great machine shop. It’s nice living in DFW where we have everything!!! I was surprised at how easy it was to get it all out, labeled, and prepped to get everything back from shop and assemble back together. It was...
Man I’ve been saying that for two months. Mechanic that did the lower end replacement/undercut said no. Then I continued and work with a guy that did some of the other mods and he said no. I’ve checked tank it’s like new inside. I’ve ran seafoam green through no change. When I get my cylinder...
The best way I can describe is that it used to lift the front end 1-4 with just less than full throttle. I don’t feel like I better hang on 1-3 anymore. However, once RPM is above 5ish6k it feels like all the power is back. In 5th gear doing 100 I used to twist the throttle and still get that...
I hear you on all that! I’m working it all now. See which way is best and what is needed. I’ve torn down to pistons now. Have not inspected past head. Not seeing much wrong in valves. They were all within spec.... but I was hearing air (snap crackle pop) through throttle bodies so assuming...
Lol. I want more hp/torque; not so much for speed. I raced motor cross for many years a lifetime ago and I can still feel the torque and quickness. I’ve had it tuned and new exhaust pair valve removed and air box. I was actually cool with that set up and my 45 rear sprocket. All that said to...
Circling back around to my post:
I did a leak down test. 1 and 2 I could hear in throttle body with a 22% leak. 3 and 4 not in throttle body but definitely in the crank case through the oil fill hole. I’ve pulled the throttle body looked down the intake and here are some pics. Before I even try...
Ok,
Pulled it apart and did compression test then added tspoon oil and retested. I could not get my hands on leak down test kit it on way from Amazon sat. Delivery. In mean time here are results:
#1
169
171 w/oil added
#2
171
182 w/oil added
#3
171
182 w/oil added
#4
169
172 w/oil added...
I did not add oil for a second test. The other techniques learned here. I did do about three tests just to see if I got the same results. I’ll try the oil tonight. Thanks you.
Hey All,
I posted here with great results including my compression test questions that lead me to today.
2007 busa 4-1 alien head exhaust, pair valve removed and ecu flash from smitz racing. Other than that all stock.
I’m getting 169 on two cylinders and 172 on the other two when doing...
