KZ1000G1 project

thought i would share what i have done over the winter. new rings, top end rebuild with the good stuff, some new web cams, and carbs. with new cams the engine came alive, night and day differance. just need to fix the crankcase breather leak and rivit in the new chain.

after i got the cyclinder head back for a local machine shop, i imediatly started to put the bike together. with the new cams i used the stock sprokets,i no i should have degreed it in but i didnt. long story short, no matter how many times of timing in the cams with the timing marks, it would start. hell i thought the vale job was a total waste of money cause i bent the valves. after almost giving up and gitting my shot gun out, i tried installing the intake cam on the 29 tooth, compression was 30lbs. so i then tried on the 27th tooth and the sea parted. big time compression....its alive

i didnt change the exhaust cam at all, compression tested was 150+ in all cyclinders. i was releived

Looks AWESOME!

By the way..."28" is the pin-count.

thanks sandy, im aware of the timing on the 28th pin, bike wouldnt start. thats why i experimented with the 29th and then the 27th. on the 27th bike fired
