wraith Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 You may get some abuse about b12 Zorst, filters, cams, bigbore, 1 Quote Link to comment
bandit14 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Get an After market end can, that'll give you a few extra noticeable pony's to start. Quote Link to comment
Paulm Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Put the engine in an Aircooled frame................... 4 Quote Link to comment
*cooky* Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 ok bandit 1200 , yeah can is at top of list , collector has been welded though so limited to 3 stud options for the moment Quote Link to comment
*cooky* Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 was waiting for the turbo comments lol , wont be doing any frame swaps either , I'm happy as is for now , it is a S model so will do a naked conversion at some point Quote Link to comment

R1guy Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I'd keep the fairing- just cam/big bore/ zorst/ carbs! Quote Link to comment
*cooky* Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 88 750 cams ? , I have been looking but seems to be a rare find , rejet carbs I was thinking of put I'm not too clued up on jetting so will have to do some reading on the subject Quote Link to comment
bandit14 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 If you change the cams you will lose a bit of the bandit torque and bottom end grunt, it reverts more to a GSX-R 1100 with more top end power. depends what you like. Quote Link to comment
bluedog59 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 If you want speed A to B. I. Suspension. 2. End can. 3. Downpipes/collector. 4. Jetting with filters/modded airbox. 5. Head work/cams or DOT head and cams. If you want straight line speed ignore number 1. 2 Quote Link to comment
gsx Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Got gsxr shock in mine, factory pro 11 jet kit and dual pods plus 11 full remus 4 2 1 system . How's 60 to a tank full riding like a complete twat sound ! Honestly mate pipe and carbs first port of call , the gsxr 11 shock made a massive difference over stock and probably best mod. Now it's sorted the front end feels lacking. Your money your choice Quote Link to comment

bandit14 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Totally agree with gsx, rear shock makes a massive difference, its no good having extra performance without handling. Quote Link to comment
