My engine is all the way down. If I want to spend no more than grand. What do I do to get the most bang for the buck. I've done the pipe, hi-flow, and race ecm. |

If you want to be cheap, the most bang for the buck would be to put it back together yourself. Seriously, why is it apart anyway? I can only dream as all my money is getting eaten up by my kids and my house. Wished I owned a condo right now. |

Well, Thanks everyone! I hope I didn't cause too much of an upset with my outlandish slang and tight-wad quandary. And thanks Turdagain for making that my "Technical Explanation". And Mrs. Auto, did I offend? I can be addressed... even with constructive criticism.
You can see in this photo where the bearing on the tranny fork has been getting hung up between 2nd and 3rd when sliding around the drum. It finally stayed hung up and splitting the cases is what it takes to get in there now that there is no tranny access door. |

I would think heads. I cant decide for myself on the 1050 or the 1200.. 1050 would be alot easier but doesn't seem like it would give much bang for buck. plus would the 12 last as long going to 7.4k? seems the 1050 might get more miles out of it. I dont know. I heard the techlusions were supposed to be out soon for it. |

Kawasaki had my 2000 ZRX1100 down for a complete transmission rebuild on warranty. Seems some parts were not put in right at the factory. While they were at it, and since much of the labor was paid for by Kawasaki, I had a few more horsepower installed. Um, about 40 more. ZX11 pistons and cams, and head work. Then I put on an Akrapovic full pipe, K&N filter, opened the airbox and jetted to suit. It went from 100.0 hp to 139.5 at the rear wheel. It was fun, but I twisted the loud handle too much and decided to sell a year or so later. It is tempting!!!!!!!
