Lighter is better, but a lower crown could prove to be an issue I guess

I remember reading a few things in the past, but searching doesn't really answer my questions; -Which year ZX10 pistons can you fit to which 750 motor? -What displacement does this give me? -What are the other mods involved? -Who has actually done it? A quest for more power is on Answers below
-
You ask if you can build one. I did, as above
-
I made one out of a lefthand side wheelspacer and some strips of steel. Not pretty, but works very well

English please

Raalte? Totally the centre of the universe..
-
Changed/replaced doesn’t automatically mean all is well. Also, I know of one example of an actual float leaking and therefor not raising with the fuellevel; something to check as well.

I've seen the paperwork for a German GSX1400 that to me was only lighly modded; it was insane. I can't begin to imagine how it would be for a bike like this.

Is it legal on the road in Germany? Looks good
-

Don't matter now, gonna turbo it anyway

We’ll find out.
-
My thoughts exactly. Anyway, we had the bottom casing off and found stock rods and pistons. I'll whip the camcover off in a while to see if I find something interesting there.
-
Also, it really was faster than a “normal” 1100 gsxr
-
And a powerscreen made 125 before I went on.

It was a proper competition; amongst others, a RSV-R made 135, 2 R1’s made a good 140 and the shop’s ZX10 superbike made 189, which all sound about right for the time.

I have had an 1127L motor on the shelf for many years. I binned the bike it was in and ended up selling the rolling chassis. I kept it, because it made a rather silly 160Bhp on the dyno during a shootout. I didn’t know what had been done to it, nor did the previous 2 owners. It had stock carbs, airbox, the proper Yoshi Duplex exhaust but no other give aways to where the power came from. We recently took the engine apart @Kid Kearsley’s place and still didn’t find anything interesting. Can this power just have come from blueprinting, mild headwork and very good carb setup?

This is rad

I didn't manage a 5". I used the 20mm spindle from the Slingshot and fabbed up a caliperhanger to use the stock brake setup. It handled perfect for what it was and I've regretted getting rid of it from the day I did.
-
No, used the std swimgarm, which made it worth it in the end. But, if I had started with a bare frame, I surely would've swapped the swingarm. I'll dig some pics out later

I had a 4.5 Slingy rear in my old one, but it was a bit of a faff.
