fivehundo, Altering the lobe centers via adjustable cam chain sprockets was one of the methods I used with the Z1...way back when. Works well, but I haven't seen any ready made kits for any modern bikes. I had the Z1's slotted/milled.

I think the lack of over run, WRT the rev limiter shows how serious Triumph was concerning the piston's speed, acceleration and deceleration. Of course a van full of race engines makes this a moot point. :hammer:
