Plates not needed for boring.
Boring AND honing needs to be done in order of 2, 4, 1, 3 to avoid incorrect clearances due to heat distortion unless you let the whole block cool after each pass.
For $60 you probably get a wrecked block with poor compression and a high oil usage unless the machinist is a good friend and the $60 is mates rates for beer money.

Or you can simply get the cylinder and pistons off a KZ1100 or GPz1100 and no machining required, bolts right on.

I had a lousy bore job done in 78 for $100. Not only were they off center, the bike always burned oil. I had Clupper Racing do my new bores in 87 for $200 and ran them until 13. I'll say it again, you want cheap, you get cheap. :dry:

Great idea!
Are there forum members who keep their KZ1100 outside and don't have guns? :evil:
The best upgrade is to sell KZ1000 for 2500 and buy KZ1100 for $1000

I wouldn't take 5 1100's for my Z1b 1000. I am thinking on going 1105, spending REAL money and sell my 1015 setup. Maybe a 1200. B)

Then you should go get one......much more satisfying to ride what you really want.....either way what everyone is saying is true : there are no free lunches when it comes to increasing performance.

Why ? $149 + $60 gets you a proper accurate re-bore at a professional engine shop by someone who hopefully knows what they are doing.
Those hones are really for glaze busting and re-ringing and no where near as accurate and consistent as a bench machine.
Total false economy and a recipe for disaster.
