Greetings from across The Pond

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with Yoshimura Stage 1 cams for the VTR ?

Kingster has them.

Good for 25bhp more with set up and cans.

thanks

With all due respect, 25 hp seems somewhat optimistic for only cams, cans and set-up. Mind you, I won't complain if it happens....

I meant Moriwaki cams...

Kingster's is putting out 125 bhp apparently iirc. Cams, jetting, filter, exhaust and set up. afaik.

Good. But common ;)

Well, I took the plunge and ordered a set of the Yosh cams (price was just too good to pass up). Along with a set of virtually new heads (only saw 300 miles of use) I picked up on eBay (which are currently off getting ported and decked), I should be good for a noticeable jump in power and response on my beloved VTR

Incidentally, I called the Yosh head office in California and spoke to an engineer/tuner about how to tune the set-up for better mid-range and he suggested I advance the intake cam by 2-3 degrees (stock L.C. is 108 deg., should go with 105-106) so I will be trying his advice. I can't wait to try it.....
