My 81 750e has cracks in every cylinder, what should I do? Should I be looking for a 850 head or what?

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.

head cracks
head cracks
In my opinion just from general knowledge, Yes you should be looking for a new head as I understand it is impossible to repair cracks in every cylinder unless you have enough metal to overbore. Now is this the cylinders themselves or the sleeves??

Ken,
It's a head he needs. Watch Ebay, you can pick up some good deals there. If you pay with Paypal you can even get buyer protection for a few bucks more. I've seen Yoshimura prepped heads there from time to time that would fit your bike. Even if your head could be repaired it would likely cost more than a good used head.

Opps, It the head that's cracked, plug hole to EX valve. I think the haed is toast. So now what? Can I get more displacement?

The 850 head is a two valve design, won't work. The only way to increase displacement is to increase bore, stroke, or both. Switching heads won't do anything for displacement and only the proper head will keep compression and squish area where it should be.
You need to be looking for a 750 head. '83 and later are a different design.
