FZR600 aftermarket cams??
Posted: Wed Aug 13, 2008 12:45 am
My friend is upset that his newish 05 YZF600 is slower than my old 91 FZR600 (hahahahahahaha), so he's getting cams for his to try to outrun me. I can't let that happen..so please help! haha
on with business...does anyone know if there are aftermarket cams available for my bike? I'm assuming 89 - 99 FZR600's all have the same head/cam/valvetrain..but i could be wrong. If I am wrong, my bike is a 91. I was also wondering...do the YZF600 cams fit in the FZR600 head? I know that that the heads are basically the same. But I do know that on a certain toyota head that yamaha designed (3sgte in the MR2), there are different revisions of the same head, rev 1 and rev 2 are compatible, but rev 2 and 3 are not because of a difference in design. With that said, (well i'm probably saying too much) is the same true for the FZR and YZF engines? Different revisions? IF the cams do fit my head, then is there anything stopping me from buying aftermarket YZF600 cams and putting them in my FZR head? I've also thought about ripping apart my bike once my friend takes his cams out, so I can see if YZF600 cams fit it.
On a slightly different note, lets say the YZF600 cams don't fit the FZR head. If I put a YZF head on my FZR block, do I have to change pistons too?
