We used to put the 1100 baskets in the 1000 to get the stronger fully enclosed basket. I believe it has to be cut down about 3/8"

Jay's right. The 1100 basket and center hub are stronger. I have a forged MTC 1100 basket in my GS1000 drag bike. Instead of cutting it down, I trimmed some material from the inside of the case allowing the whole basket to fit without cutting the basket down. This allows you to run one more friction plate. With the right springs this set up will work up to 150WHP.....Billy

I have used KZ steel baskets in a GS1000 and a GS1100 both had over 220 h.p. and both were in car tire drag bikes that 60' 1.17
