    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...

  • Returning Visitors

    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.

Anyone put GSXR 1100 cams in a GS1100 motor? I've been told they look a lot different but bolt right in. wondering if anyone else has done it and was there a major power gain?:?:

It has been done; not universally recommended because of the differences in cam journal sizes; Rapid Ray does it. :cool:
 
Over 130 HP at the rear wheel with 88 GSX-R 750 cams. They are .350 lift on the intake & .330 on the exhaust. A friend of mine on this site, GregB, has a set in the 1229/1150 motor I built for him & it hauls the mail! PM me for my # if you want to call to talk about it as there are a couple of things to watch for when doing it. Ray.
 
Man that is an impressive gain. other than the cams and head, is money/work needed anywhere else and is that achievable on an otherwise stock 1075cc GS G?

I have a 8 valve 1985 (1st registered 87) GS1100G (see profile pic) and most of a spare motor in parts. Have someone wanting the head, but I have some time with it so am thinking maybe I could have the work done on the spare head and swap it over for mine :D

Your G is 8V right? Wont work GSXR is 16V and is only feasible for 16V GS's
 
Yeah I kinda figured the extra lobes would be hard to accommodate, but I had to ask :o.
