Cam timing... who's had it done ?

Grib · 11-Oct-2006, 17:33

The 583 had it done and she ended up being one of the most powerful out there, so I reckon it's worth it

The cam what??

Changed the oil, fitted dynojet kit and.......er, thats it. Must get round to changing the belts and plugs soon!

A trip to Louigi Moto would be a good start just look how our bike goes.

Weeksy, our mate Alan Shirley did my Old Senna with some vernier cam kit and pulled 6 bhp out of it, albeit with a slightly rough tickover but who rides on tickover ????

Worth it ? Certainly on the track but can be a pain in slow slow traffic.

Techincally speaking from what i can gather, it's about the opening and closing of the valves, and getting them synchronised so they open and close together and at the right times.

Chass,

Already booked in with Louigi after discussions with him and Moto Rapido
