Just got back from Iraq Monday and yesterday began installing the parts that came in over the past few months.
Wisco HC Pistons
BC Street Cams
ProCom Ignitor
FCR39s
Bub full system
Wow, is all I can say. Aside from the changes in performance and sound, the bike has a totally different character. I have not done a dyno pull yet, but I suspect a signifigant improvement in the torque curve. At the same time, the bike pulls much stronger to the new 8300 RPM limit. The carbs are straight out of the box from BC. I am not even sure what jetting configuration I am running, but they needed only a tweak to the air screws to "feel happy" throughout the throttle range. I suspect that after my Saturday Dyno run I will spot some area for improvement. The pipes from Bub are awesome. The famous kink is gone, and they fit soooo nicely along the frame. They sit just enought higher, that it is much easier to get my bike lift under as well. I wish I bought these first, instead of dicking around with slip-ons.
Along with dialing in the carbs, I still have to install some heavier clutch springs and some new valve shims. They were quite loose after changing the cams (ex ~.43mm, in ~.27mm). Either way, I am stoked. I love the power and new feel of the throttle!
