No, 58 as opposed to 66.

Yeah, with the Wiseco's I didn't notice it. When I lunched another piston and had to use the stock 1000 pistons that came with the 1015 barrels, it was obvious. It still ran great, a little better when I put the 10.25/1's back in. I still haven't done a compression test. I will before I tear it down again. Says a lot about these motors. B)

Wow.... I never realized that you were down 165cc at 6:1 - 7:1 compression ... You're going to have to learn how to ride all over again!!

Might be a blessing in disguise. How did you come up with those figures?

I'm going to fix my compression tester. It'll give us a better idea what it is. :whistle:

I wish I would have written it down but I think mine was around 175psi a couple weeks after I put the 1075 kit in.
That was about 5000 miles ago.

OK daydreaming.
58mm stroke with 70mm bore?
So 35sqrd x3.1416 x 58
892cc?
But you are running those 70mm 10:1 pistons so ... even with the stroke not pushing the piston further up into the combustion chamber, your actual compression is probably more then 8:1.

I want to weigh both cranks to see if there is a difference or if it's just shorter rods. Looks like something that hasn't been done before. :)
