Saw this V2 heads & cams in the "For Sale" section.

I have a 98' M900 which came with "W" heads; it does have a few upgrades....Nichols Lt weight flywheel & FCR 41"s

Would these heads & cams be worthwhile & what else would I need to complete (other parts?)
What do you guys estimate installed performance to be?

Thanks

i would have thought it'd make quite a difference.  good time to do more stuff while you're in there too.

I usually tell folks with previous generation 2V to go find a used 1100/1000/796/696 engine and start there rather than do anything more than FCRs. The FCRs are about the only mod I still recommend for performance on the 900/800/750/695 family of bikes.

3 angle Big Ti valves
Hot cam

Ti rods
Stroked Knife edged crank

From 63 to 79 HP, that's fantastic.

Any data on other mods; exhaust, intake?

Assuming he got a chip done, or did he PowerCommander it?
