      The 1150 cams if you don't mind losing the tach, the 1150 exh cam doesn't have the tach drive gear cut into it. Or you could use the 1150 intake cam with the 83 1100 exhaust cam. BETTER yet would be to get a set of Web .340s or, if you want POWER, the Web .348s. Ray.

          Need the tach. I am running no speedo. Back in the day, I was told by The Suzuki District service manager to run GS750 cams. Good, bad, dumb ?

              For the 8 valve engine maybe. Not for 16 valve.

                  Here's some good data re. stock, and some aftermarket cam specs. All credit to Jim (posplayr).

                      Looks like a 83 750 intake has nice lift
