Easy ways to get more oomph from a GS650 Kat?
Hi there, wondered if anyone knows of any quick or easy ways to get some more go out of the GS650 Katana (GS650 GM?). She's just a bit gutless as standard (nothing wrong with engine compression is all good, and carbs recently renovated and rebuilt). Does anyone have any hints or tips? Cheers.

gs650gt
I guess there are no e a s y ways to do that... some improvement can be achieved by replacing the airfilter, rejetting, Reboring to oversize, replacing the exhaust system (the selection is not very wide though) etc. but they're expensive hp's I think.
Gs650g is a gs650g and You cant't do much about it. Besides the frame and brakes are not rated for a more efficient engine anyway...
Buy a gsx1100s katana for a second bike like I did...

Hello Mr. Suzuki
One sugstion I do have is do like i did.( 15 years ago) put a gs 750 top end on it with 10.5 copression pistons and the gs 750 carbs and exhaust. only thing you have to have machined is the top cases to accept the barrels from the 750. Or a better option these days is to find a GS 750 16 valve motor and graft it in" It has been done. Pely with any forther questions and I will help as best I can.
Regards, Archie
