Hey Centerline, good luck with the build. The bike should be a blast to ride! Changing the cams sounds like a good move and Wood makes great cams which come on real early. I went with the Wood 650 TW9F, and the bike explodes when you release the clutch and hammer the throttle. Which clutch are you considering? I've been real happy with the performance of the Barnett.

I have a question
I rememeber in the past you talking about gearing down the bike to get better torque and acceleration, so now that you have plenty of motor do you plan on keeping the lower gearing or will you go back to taller gears to strecth it out a bit.
Just wandering
Oh yea, i am majorly jealous too
good luck with everything

Varies state to state. In Washington State where I live the VIN on the frame is what matters, the engine numbers do not have to match. I do carry a laminated copy of the MSO for the engine just in case someone wants to be a knot head.

Congrats on the upgrade. 120R or ... how to make everybody jealous!
Can't wait to see you dyno numbers with the cam you've chosen, I'd also like power on the low rpm.
Apart from the clutch, did you need to upgrade anything else on the transmission to allow for the increased torque? gearbox/belt?
