is this kit really that amazing, I thought about restricting the shit out of it and making a torque machine.

Hello Dan,

I would use clay to take a reading \ measurement or hot wax but clay is best I think. I have had a problem of burning up the alloy/alumium head gasket to the point of where there is nothing left. I also have talked with a couple of people about this in Argentina, common problem. Here is the thing. The kits are made for 40mm crank rod when you use the 42 or 43mm cranks. 40mm=82cc, 42mm= 85.7 cc something think, 43mm rod is 89.7. Its just a longer rod. Thats why you must use a base gaskets and glue them together to make sure they seal. -Ed

longer con rods DO NOT ADD CC's, bigger crank lobes do. longer con rods just move everything forward.

Wouldn't putting two head gaskets together alter the timing?

hmm.. I suppose so.. at the moment I am running well with two head gaskets and it runs fine but I think in time as they get hotter and thinner it will start hitting again..

I looked at my stock head and it's got a definitive lip to the combustion dome so I think I am going to take it to get machined.. I have an extra one if it mangles the compression.

we put this kit on my roomies concord, we used two base gaskets and the head gasket that came with the kit. this thing ripppppps at 1/2 throttle (he's new to kitted bikes and afraid to go any faster, plus we're breaking it in still).

personally, i can't wait for it to be broken in and to experience it at full throttle.
