You might be better off selling the gen 1 bike and buy a gen 2. You could do the motor in stages. First start with the big bore. Then when you get money do the head and cams. Or find a motor that’s already been built or a bike thats been built

If you bore a Gen2 you get a 1441. If you decide to do this, prepare to spend $$$ for less power than a turbo. You will have a monster if it’s built right. I suggest getting hold of a sponsor when you are serious or take it to a drive in place like carpenter. Pay now or cry later. It gets expensive quickly.

Or better than what I posted is what Busakiller recommended. Buy a gen 2 built or build it. Used motors pop up all the time for a lot cheaper than you could build it for.

Hi. If you are on a budget you will not get what you need, do not do things half but. I have over $40,000.00 in mine now, and it looks like I will need another $50 K or more to finish it.

Everyone is on a budget Mike, some people just have deeper pockets....
A street 1441 will still be more expensive than a similar hp turbo bike, but to each their own.

Hi. My deep pocket now has a big hole in it. That is why I work up to 80 hrs a week. If you want something bad enough you do whatever it take to get it.

I respect your hustle Mike, and I'm very pleased you're pursuing your dream! I'm working towards being able to achieve my goals.
