1995 883 sportster going from 883 to 1250. Dose anybody know how much to retard the timing?? Also what jets should I put in the carb??

 

Im going with the Hammer Performance 1250 kit also.

 

Hey Don, your best source for these types of questions would be Hammers website or giving them a call. They’re super helpful and will help guide you the right way. i have the same kit, it’s awesome. You’re going to love it!

 

Thanks Boss.

 

I was looking into converting a 2007 883 Fuel Injected to 1200, and read somewhere, that it is best to change out the cam while doing the conversion. You're supposed to get better performance. Has anyone else heard of this?

 

Changing the cams = better performance , but not necessarily to do the conversion.

 

Not many cams available for 883 heads with out head work. Or go to 1200 heads.

Depends on what you want. Your stock cams I believe, are W grind cams. They are pretty much the best cam for down low grunt. If you want more top end power, then you can change them out, but you lose some down low grunt. It's all in your riding style and needs. Just going to 1250-75 doubles the power of an 883. I will vouch for Hammer Performance as well. I installed a 1250 kit this past winter. No issues with any of their parts. Great response times with questions. Cheers

 

Hammers basic kit comes with the proper jets I believe

 

Has anyone used NRHS Performance 883 to 1250 kits? Are they worth the money? I cant decide between S&S , Hammer Performance or NRHS Performance. NRHS Performance seams good????
