    7/10 swap performance increase?

    I couldn't find this information with the search engine so I'm asking:
    Now I know 1/4mi racing isn't a lot of people's cup of tea her although there are some that love it. To me it's all I've done and only in cars so it's a good way for me to quantify an improvement.
    I'm going to a 1000 engine in my 750 project and wonder what kind of 1/4mi times a skilled rider can expect or even better, what sort of reduction in 1/4mi time compared to the 750?
    Thank you,
    -Ray

    Technically a GS1000 engine its 9.9 pounds lighter and 33.3% bigger!
    And a GS750 frame is about 6 pounds lighter than the 1000 frame.

      I guess my question would be

      what are you planing to do to the 1000?

      80GS1000 has a warmed up 1000 (but not too radical) and it is about as fast as Reno Bruce's stock 1150. The 1150 has a 10.95 mph at 125 ET (Cycle World April 1984).

        The guy I bought the 1000 from thought it had some aftermarket cams in it and that it ran extremely strong. I may degree the cams to see what they are, or I may just put it in and see how it does. Only thing I can see for sure is the Dyna ignition.
