I`ve said this before you don`t need them unless in a ultra high performance application. It only causes more problems than its worth. I ran stock gears on 400HP brutes. No problems. I`ve seen way to many 50K 1100`s apart that look fine.

slopoke most of my bad experiences have been with drag racing applications at high rpm. I have had and seen several shear the gears off on the pump. I have seen several that have had head gasket problems (leaking around the studs) that was a result of to much oil in the head which then also gets blown out the breather. Again most of these came with modified engines and in ultra high rpm applications. I have to ask has anyone ever had a cam or rocker wear out prematurely due to a lack of oil to the head? I have never seen one where something else didn`t cause it. I think 750 gears are going to cause more problems than they are worth. I have seen where several high lift cams have worn out rockers and the 750 gears did not help. A hard weld rocker is the only cure for those with a hard weld camshaft. In that particular case I would say yes use the gear but with a outside the head oiling kit. Remember the GS has no O-rings around the oil gallies supplying oil to the head. Leaks are bad enough at low pressure. I think I may have went into it once but I modified our heads to use GSXR stud o-rings and eliminated our leaky head gaskets. The stock gasket comes with a rubber seal made onto the gasket but aftermarket copper do not. The new cometic spring steel gasket are a large improvement. I guess if it makes someone feel better then do it but if you are having no problems why ask for one. Just my 2 cents.

I see what you mean. i just put mine in because it was there to do and i was instaslling an oil cooler. I have since found that the oil cooler is a waste of time for me even here in florida. i have 1166 and ten to one. the bike still takes forever to warm up even in 90 degree weather. I dont think that anyone wanting to do it would have to be leary of ther mod though.

1100 oil pump gears are back in engine. I hope that that small piece of O-ring will stay behind clutch basket.
