2012 Aftermarket cams or cam swap?
Hey guys, I have been working on a budddys 2012 ZX14 and were looking to squeeze some more out of her!
After doing some looking I noticed that the Gen1 to Gen2 14 cam journals have the same diameter...... wondering if anyone is running any gen1 cams in their bike?
Or has anyone done any dyno runs with any kind of custom grind???
I know things are tight inside this motor but I'm sure someone is squeezing some more out of them with some head cleaning and cams????

yeah I know they are smaller but I see some aftermarket's around from time to time online but yeah check out the service manual, says the journals are the same between the two Gen's
Obviously I know that say a set of cams with a little more lift might not have the correct duration for this size motor but I'm sure theres gotta be a good combo out there just no one has found it or if they have they kept it to them selves (smart)
I'm just looking for a little more performance for my buddy.... after I build my other buddy a 1441 busa he has been walking away from the 14r :-(

Did you just install the piston kit on the busa with 13.5-1 comp only, or did you do cam and headwork too?
