OMFG. An 1103cc big bore kit for a Falco.

Now I know what I want for Christmas...
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

..... if sir would prefer, he may also like to consider the 1127cc kit available here:

You'll need around 5k to make it happen. I think i priced it up last time they were mentioned and it was something like £3k for the parts. You'd need 600 for VAT and probably a nice pricey sum for shipping.

Obviously you would want someone like Griff to do the work and get it all set up on a dyno properly. Power commander or a customisable chip with a unique map would be required if not already fitted.

It would be more cost effective to just buy a more powerful bike, but I would do it if I had money coming out of my ears (sadly though, I don't).

Griff will fit you one of his 1060 kits for a lot less than your estimates of the 1127 kit Dale

Along with their super-charger kit? Now we are definitely in loony-land!

All so utterly impractical for the riding that I do...

But why go to the trouble for only a 60cc improvement? may as well go the full 127 :smt001

..... because I think most people will be looking at performance gains against price rather than capacity gains against price .....

Both options are out there, people can decide for themselves whether they go for on or other or neither.

Don't we usually tell people to get their credit cards out when they sign up to the forum and have just bought a falco? :smt003
