To me, that's exactly where I would start if I were looking for more power. You gain 68cc and 1.5 points in compression ratio. That should be a significant power boost on it's own. Don't forget to add in the price of boring your cylinders and the new gaskets. It's totally worth it.

I would rather keep my 750. Sentimental I guess....but to raise it to 881cc's would be nice! Add a set of rs34's and that should give me plenty of power.

Posplayr, I like the 1100 you have in your red bike but its the only one I like. All of the other ones I see have those round chrome caps on the heads. (cam caps?) Just dont like the way they look. Ive been looking on here for an 1100 but havent found one yet. Ideally, if i stuck with my 750, I wouls like the bb kit with a set of rs34's, and maybe kent cams. Thats what my plan is now. There seems to be alot of stuff out there for the 1100 though, thats why I started looking.

From the part numbers, looks like these are Wiesco kits, so quality would be excellent. Ray"Nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded" -Yogi Berra
