My '82 GPz 550 made 75 rwhp on a dyno after about the same set of mods. That one looks to need a lot of tidying up, though."Thought he, it is a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."

Assuming the motor work was done right, they are truly great bikes. I spent too much doing mine, but it was fun to keep up with the first generation of Hurricane 600's when they came out."Thought he, it is a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."

I wouldn't buy a bike like that based on HP. It's a classic.Ed

I think he likes it outright, but the mods, if done well, definitely add to the fun factor."Thought he, it is a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."

That would be a fun resto-mod!
I bet it can be had for less than a thousand!1978 Gs1085 compliments of Popy Yosh, Bandit 1200 wheels and front end, VM33 Smoothbores, Yosh exhaust, braced frame, ported polished head :cool:

I would rather trust my bike to a technician that reads the service manual than some backyardigan that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix things.Comment

Its worth buying but based on the pictures but I bet its no turn key example. There are other options than Wiseco BB but I have never tried em
