    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

1100 katana cam/ carb setup help wanted

Hi guys,
I'm building a standard katana 1100 engine into my 750 frame. As it's still out I thought I'd make use of it and set it up as far as I can. I read a lot about the standard cam timing being miles out. How do I set this up? I know there's some degree-disk needed (where to buy?), and I need to get my sprockets slotted?
It's a standard engine which runs 4 K&N filters on standard carbs. Any tips on how to setup the carbs/ cams with these filters? I use a marshall straight-thru pipe. I'm going for usable power and smoothness rather than top end.
Thanks in advance, Marco.
 
Hello Marco
Check out this site and print a copy of this degree wheel on card stock and either glue it on a peice of thin metal or have it laminated for a couple of dollars.

Best of luck. Regards, Archie

I've heared the that the cams at 106/106 degrees works well for street use several times, don't know if it that was for a 1100. And for the actual proces, Keith Krause know something about that...

KEITH WHERE ARE YOU!!!
 
Marco, with the K&N's and pipe, you'll need to buy a jet kit. Or did you know that already?
