Howdo and cheers for letting me join, bit of a cheeky join as I dont own a complete gsx14, I,m going to be using a 14 lump in a one off custom frame, with mostly custom bits, but the lump will be the heart of the build, will be seeking advice on tuning bits etc, a pic of my current build with a bandit 12 lump, the frame for the 14 will be similar

Welcome  :onya:

  Is that a Spondon frame? I remember buying Streetfighter magazines back in the day. Often fancied one but never got around to owning one.

I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Pop your location in your profile please, Very interested to follow your builds !

as far as whats possible, well, all depends on the $ you want to spend.

Here are some possibilities:

and how real-world daily rider you want it as opposed to say straight line speed etc.
For example you could bolt on a turbo but in my opinion that's not ideal for a daily rider.


My bike has a Power Commander, Akro exhaust and Yoshi Stage 1 cams. Which is more than adequate for a bike like ours.
Remember it's all about the TORQUE more than top end HP.
