I did not degree the cams, just installed them on stock cam gears wherever they ended up. What do you mean by my numbers? Dyno numbers? Haven't...
I was able to ride the 550 on the highway and it is night and difference with the cams. I still haven't got the jets dialed just right, but even...
It is not listed as DOT. Not sure if this is allowed, but this is the link to the exact one I bought. It claims the housing is aluminum, but it is...
It definitely is bright and pretty. It has a fairly clean cut off at the top of the lighted area, not a blurred line like when people install HIDs...
Another update: I looked back and actually the cams I put in were FJ600 cams, not Radian cams. Not sure how I got that mixed up. I installed a...
I recently installed an LED retrofit bulb with no space issues. I just had to push some of the wiring out of the way enough to fit the housing. It...
Sorry to hear about your wreck, glad you're OK. There is that saying about two types of motorcycle riders: those who have crashed, and those who...
I've got the bike running through the RPMs, but now it's a bit on the rich side. As of now, main jet is 122.5, pilot is 40, and I have 3 needle...

figured I would throw an update. I put the 600 cams in the 550 and was able to get it to idle. I took it for a very short ride to the end of the...
Nah, the maxim has sentimental value, I couldn't sell it for the foreseeable future. I've come close a few times over the years, but could never...
Maybe sometime down the road I will end up riding the Radian as well, but the combination of time/money I have very recently invested in the Maxim...
Well, I opened a few doors for myself. I found a semi-local 600 radian and jumped on it. With a title it was $375 all there, I was able to turn it...
Thats good to know. My coworker used to race an FJ600 when these bikes were new, so he has been guiding me to the best of his ability, but he...
I ended up finding a set of FZ600 cams at a fair price and ended up going that route. The forum seems to think I am spam, so my reply is cut...
Hello, all! I've got an '82 XJ550 that I'm finally getting around to doing something with. its got about 14k miles on it, so it sat for a long...
