Re: Engine Swap???

A 12% increase in HP and torque would be nice and the price is right for such a gain. A slightly higher cruising speed with stock gearing or larger counter sprocket would still leave some reserve power for hills and headwinds. Hopefully the carb would be able to keep up with the added displacement. The only other drawback for some riders might be less mileage per gallon and a slight bit more vibration.
Do it and we will all see how it works.
