I'm still gathering parts for this build but I have the head back from porting at competition CNC, all 4 lightweight pistons, all 4 lightweight rods, and the factory shift kit. I just need to send the crank out for knife-edge/balance. The rotating and reciprocating masses will be significantly lighter!
Just my humble 2 cent. We also degreed the Gen1 Kawasaki kit Race Intake cam on this bike several times and ended up at 105/102. We used the stock exhaust cam. We also installed the thin head gasket. We had a stock head. We originally tried the 107/104 route but were unimpressed. I know Garth ran the 107/104 with his motor but maybe the 107 works best with specific head work. Again, my head was stock. Excited to see Your final product.

I forgot to mention I'm going to run a G3 kit cam initially instead of the G1. I'm going to us an OEM thickness headgasket since these pistons are doing the work and having the thicker gasket will give me some extra margin of safety. I had the chambers cleaned up which should further push the CR down as well. Just waiting for my crank to come home and then I'll start building it up. If my match is correct these parts will have shaved almost 4lbs off of the rotating assembly.
4lbs ? From pistons and rods? I think it is not possible.
I quess that u could save 100gr from each rod and 40gr from each piston-pin.Thats around 600-700gr thats around 1.3-1.5lb. Is your crankshafton diet too?:grin2::grin2:

every aftermarket piston ive installed on a ten has a raised piston deck as part of the compression increase. so pth contact will occur with any thin hg. need to measure may even need a .030 as made by cometic instead of the stk .027 head gasket.

Yes, I'd much rather run a thicker headgasket rather than deal with sealing issues. I'm having a little trouble setting the ring gap with these pistons since the pistons are gas ported. There's a ton of info an nuance out there regarding what you can get away with but if set up correctly the effort is worth a decent amount of power.
built motors with several web race grinds on intake all the way up to the 400 lift, also gen 1 race int, gen 3 race int. that gen 3 race int has made more power/torque than any, suggest degree around 111 with ur compression, tried this cam at lower settings, just did not work well. im at 111/108 with stk ex cam on stk pistons, .026 mill, .45mm hg. makes 115 hp at 7k, 193 at 13500. suggest professionally cleaning/flowing injectors, good tune, that bike is going to be more than a handful.
One morning I got on my bike, it starts right up then lost all power. I checked all the fuses, went through it with a volt meter, the only thing getting power is the connector right actress the positive terminal of the battery. I took a wire ran it from the pos terminal straight to the bottom...
Through the years I have struggled with a design that doesn't break the bank (cnc) yet be a smart design.

The crank drives the pulley through a coupler that allows crank movement and not be loaded by the steady bearing.
Lots of time and tinkering to end up here, now for...
I would like to adjust the factory cut times as there is some lurch with shifting and would like to add the blipper function as well.
I'm considering either the ECU flash, if it doesn't void the extended warranty, or the HM SABS unit.
Is the kill time and adjustable parameter and adjustable...
Hi
I have an intermittent issue where occasionally when shifting from 5th to 6th during hard acceleration the gear immediately drops back to fifth.
I spoke to a kawasaki tech guy who says he hasn't heard of this issue on a gen 5 before.
This thread will be for MAPS ONLY!!!!! If you have a map you would like to share please send me (Tread70) a PM or email it to me @ [email protected] All maps will need a brief description of mods and year, make , and model.
Thank You,
