bandit newb in dire need of direction

aaahhhh thanks very mucho, guys. big help really. so its a 'no' on the b5/6 cowl?

[PitterB4]

Other than some of the more generic parts (brakes and so forth), there's very little on the B4 common with anything including the B6.

I had the Gimble cowl on my B4.  Very nice, quality piece.

food for thought you get 8 hp with the kit with no other mods thats $140.00 per 1 HP worth it in my book...

So basically a 13% increase in power from a 10% increase in displacement...seems like it's on the right-side of the percentages.
I'm sure with some of those wild carbs you've shown in the past it'd be even greater increases.

Seat cowls and belly pans are still available from Gimbel, a German manufacturer. Prices on eBay are 100 euros for the seat cowl, sprayed and 20 euros for the belly pan, unsprayed. I have both for sale since I'm selling all my spare Bandit parts.

you liken the big bike better

After 3 years on the Bandit I've made enough mistakes to learn from and now it's time to make new mistakes on a new bike Poor Bandit has had it's life, over 100.000 km's, dented frame, both wheels are not straight anymore, after visiting the 16000+ revs too many times the engine is using oil, but apart from that it's still going strong. Though 4 bikes, 2 mini-bikes and a car is too much for one garage

Or 2.89 HP per MM bore increase...

im looking to do a streetfighter interpretation. so if anyone has a seat cowl, id like to buy it or borrow it so i can lay down a frp mold. its not hard to do and completely safe for the original piece. if not im just gonna chop the tail.
