    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

1100 cams in a 750

Freshening up an '81 GS750 16 valve. I have been told that the GS1100 cams are a bolt in mod for the GS750. My question is: I know I have to use the 750 cam sprockets (they are larger), But will the cams be installed at the same 'timing' as the stock 750 cams? The lift on the 750 cams are .258 on both sides and the 1100 cams ('80-'82) measure .275 intake and .258 exhaust. Looks to me like the 1100 uses the 750 exhaust cam but larger intake. Don't know about the duration though. Can anyone shead any light on this, please advise and thanks. Terry.
 
How much difference does it make???
