lms1977 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Posted May 8, 2013 well we kinda need to know what your planning on doing with the bike and what you want to spend.. 1 Quote
ginger Posted May 8, 2013 Report Posted May 8, 2013 i would rock +4 timing, and maybe some reeds till it needs a rebuild, then atleast a head and port work, if not a +4 crank. 1 Quote

lms1977 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Posted May 8, 2013 timing plate,reeds,head and domes would be the best bang for the buck all things you will need as you go deeper into the sport 1 Quote

SheeRidr Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Posted May 8, 2013 Lms1977 Sounds good man.. any suggestions on exactly which parts as in brands or does it not matter?? Hyperti2 They told me it was at 120psi??? Hope i dont sound like an idiot i just want to make sure i do my mods right the best way possible. So thank you all for the advice!!! Quote
SheeRidr Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Posted May 9, 2013 x2 on timing plate set at +4 degrees I seen a video on that it was a "do it yourself" tho. Better off just buying it new? or what do you think?? Quote
oldskool Posted May 9, 2013 Report Posted May 9, 2013 Nothing wrong with modding your stock plate. The aftermarket plate($45.00) makes it easy,easy to set timing. The degrees are marked on plate +10 to -10. Just set desired timing to where engine cases come together, tighten bolts with a little loctite, done 1 Quote
sheerider11 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Posted May 9, 2013 I think with a stock modded, you can only get like 3-4 degrees but enough to notice. 1 Quote

oldskool Posted May 9, 2013 Report Posted May 9, 2013 Not if you stay with +4 or less, Don't use the logic that if +4 is good,then +8 must be better. Quote
