what do i need to hit 100 whp?
05 Dec 2012 21:13
I am going to begin rebuilding my bike ove the winter to make it a cafe racer. My goals 1. Make it light as possible. I will be weighing everything removed at the end to see my total weight reduction. 2. I want to hit at least 100whp. I will be getting the bike dynoed either this weekend or next to get my baseline. This intail my ultimate question. What should i do to hit the magic number? Im thinking GPZ heads and cams, with a port and polish, full exhaust. I dont know if i wanna do 4-1 or 4-2. Pod filters, re jetting of course.
And thats where i hit a dead end. Please help guys!?
Cheers
Jason

A NOS kit would be cool but i dont know if they allow that on a track. I wanna do vintage bike racing. And knowing me id put way to much through the engine and probably take a piston to the nuts lol.

roughly 78 hp to begin with with a subtracted loss of compression due to miles. intake and exhaust= bonus, cams from a gpz would get not much more. ignition is solid, except for the module.
raise the compression. add nos octane booster. p&p would do it. 5 angle valve job. and then don't drive it on the public roads.
i dunno, you are already getting more than .1 hp per cc.

You gain in horsepower what, lost in low end torque, could be. Hmmmmmm.

Why do you say not drive it on public roads? And what about a wiesco 810 kit i think it is? And more agressive cams?

To get 100 WHP from a 750 will take a
bunch of work I'd think.
810cc kit.
higher compression
A very good head with the right cams.
Upgraded igntion.
BIG carb.s.
Good exhaust.
Then all the good nuts and bolts and studs to keep it together.
Dear Santa see above.
