    gs1100 tricks and mods info needed.

    hey guys.
    shawn here and i'v been working my but off on that beast of mine.
    this will blow your minds!
    this last week i was out working and ran across a man that said he had a gs1150 motor he pulled off a old drag bike he had bike . and it was a running motor. so after we talked for a lil bit he told me he needed to get it out of hes shop floor but didn't know where or who to sell it to.
    so after a lil more talking 3 hours go by and many beers too. GOD shinned on me when he leand over to me and said i was a great guy and i was welcome to stop by any time but he was drunk and had to go to bed. so i said good by and see you next time. as i walked to my truck he stoped me and said ( ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE YOUR MOTOR! ) i stoped and replyed is it mine and he replyed well ya i just told ya i didn't want it and didnt know what to do with it! i must add the man was like 60 years old!

    so after that i ran to get it . its now here in my shop and i need info on things i can do make a sleeper motor. he did say the crank was welded why i dont know. but other then that i have no info on it and need any info i can . i want to build it up nice and mean!!!

    Good score - A welded crank is a bonified mod for high horsepower as they have been known to twist (at least on the 1000). If 1150 is the same they are a pressed finish from the factory.

    RapidRay has to be your man on this - he knows all the info. Are the Cams stock? Did you get any carbs with it?

        Well that motor is already a sleeper assuming it runs well. About 124 hp for the GS1150 compared to 109-111 hp of the the stock GS1100E.

        Hp depends on how much you wanna gotta.

        How much hp you wanna

        How much money you gotta

        Decide that first then go ask Ray.

        If you are going to spend $400-500 I would

        4:1 pipes, Stage III Jet Kit , pods, Dyna coils and coil relay mod.

        If kinda goes up from there.
