Where's the best place to buy from?

Any info will be appreciated

Yes my good man this is them, they did oil cooled cams I would say they still do them and for later stuff.

I contacted Wade Cams and they only have the profiles for the older model Gixxers. So that means I'm back to my original question.

Where would be the best place to get a set of Yoshi cams? Also, bike is gonna be mainly used for road use, might take her down the 1/4 mile every once in a while as well as long weekend rides. Anyone have used Stage 2 cams on their bike? Feedback would be appreciated.

I'll give him a call Nick. I heard that BGW had the agency, but it has now gone to a mob based in Qld. Sent them an email and they reckon 12 weeks to get them

I had a look at the BGW site,and they have Yoshi stuff,but for the race Yoshi parts,there is a link to Phil Tainton.
I guess BGW are happy to sell just exhausts and chassis bits and pieces,and leave the mechanicals to someone who has experience in using these parts???

Well, looking for Yoshi Stage 1 Cams, best price seems to be around $1k plus shipping. Anyone got a lead on better prices before I spend my hard earned in a week or 2?

what sort of HP gain are you getting for $1000 jules ...you might be better off with Nos

but cams are all the time, NOS is only when you hit the button... and the cops would get all grumpy face if they saw it on the street.

Plus cammy motors sound pimp.

Rod, won't get that much, but I want it rideable and not attracting too much attention if possible.

I still wanna be able to go riding up in the hills and keep the low - mid range power
