VM Vs CV carbs

I agree with the comments on the carbs, I had a GSX250 with CV carbs and it was such a pig to try to make those plungers and diaraghms work properly. My 550 with the VMs really are simple, and I dont mind the little bit less power.
Thanks for the brake tips, I think softer better pads may be the only answer.

Cheers

What about an overbore on a TSCC? My '86 550 is in need of a power boost!

Get the jugs from a 650, overbore and when I say overbore I mean OVERBORE the hell out of it. 3mm if I remember correctly and then stuff in some TSCC 750 pistons. Of course I have no idea if it would work in real life seeing as I don't know much about those TSCC engines other than they were 4v. But the 3mm overbored 650 jugs have already been done, So I don't see why it wouldn't work.

In the end you'll have a 740cc
