The pistons are a  forged set from Weisco. Lots of relief in the piston crowns also, in case i feel the need to shave the head down  8).  Also bolted in APE studs to the top case for a little extra insurance, capped with APE head nuts too....

Hopefully Next tuesday 's ride will be her Maiden voyage  :) :) :) :o ;D 8)

 Ok so its been 2 seasons since the conversion . I've got roughly 8000kms on the Mad Kaw, and its running great! Last winter I torn the engine down to repair an oil leak at the base. i also re-set the valves back to spec. replaced the coils (thinking) I had a bad coil.  This turned out to be 2 mixed up Neg wires  from the electronic Ignition :-[ . this is  just an update for those of you who were wondering if I finished the project.  Maybe i'll actually get the seat,tank and Side covers re-done this winter !
 I also just completed my Longest ride ever !  I covered almost 2000km's on Mad Kaw, and after I had a new set of keys made after losing mine, all it needed was 1 litre of oil and a master link Clip.  i ran it at 4500-5500rpm  cruising at 120-130 km/h.  I can now truely say that I am extreamly satified with this conversion. Its comfy, I looks neat,and it goes pretty good also 8)

cheers Parker
