Gidday from OZ
Howdy,
Just ergistered and have enjoyed reading all the ZX12 posts.
We run a 2000 model at 1428cc and 150shot of NOS. Still getting a handle on the NOS as the engine is so agressive. 8.28 at 178mph so far.
Here it is. We call it "Little Brother". It's big brother is 1498cc.

The 1498cc is Muzzys ex Pro Stock Bike. We have it. The bore is 87mm, same as the 1428. You can't go any bigger. The crank is offset and 1498 is it's max.
Both bikes are all Muzzys.
Little Brother's engine is 5 years old. Has only had one set of standard valves and one set of rings in that time.
Cheers,
Wolfman

So, how may pases on the 1428, and what are it's bore and stroke specs? Just curious, because I have heard of a lot of broken cranks with the strokers.

The bike has done fifty million passes!!!
Seriously, it has done hundreds of passes. We bent one crank due to our own fault running oil too low. Tried something with a sump and it didn't work.
The current crank has done three seasons and multiple testing.
We ran all motor for a long time at 1427 (1428 above is not correct - apologies). 8.8s at 152mph before going to gas 18 months ago.
87mm billet block, 60mm stroker crank = 1427cc.
Cheers,

Wolf,
Nice looking 1427!
I have been building/racing a 1427 for quite a while; got it down to 8.790@159mph NA with my fat old ass in the seat. 
Seems like I am doing more experimenting with motor configurations these days than racing but that'll change this summer.
email me at guntekd@chevrontexaco.com if you wanna yak about configurations.
BTW: I just got back from Oz; rented a car in Sydney, drove to Hobart & back to get a look at SE Austrailia. Had GREAT time.
Looking fwd to hearing from you.

Yep, i noticed that.
I'm thinking of offering wolf my Hans "Whammer-Jammer" Carbon Fiber Racing Snorkle.
I had to take the Hans off because my bike so much power with it that i couldn't control it...

Thanks for the compliments on the 12 guys.
Yep, stock snorkel and many other stock bits still. All the EFI system is stock with PC only.
Entropy - OZ is a good place! I'll email you. Thanks for the contact.
We're gonna try hard for a 7 with the gas in testing soon. Keep you posted.
