Yoshimura cams for Hayabusa
A fast bike just got a lot faster…
Since the launch of the revised Hayabusa in 2008 owners have been asking Yoshimura for a set of performance camshafts to further liberate horsepower and torque from its mighty 1340cc four-cylinder mill. The `Busa is one of the most popular choices for sprinting and drag racing, and the revamped Suzuki 1300 is proving justr as capable along the quarter mile as its illustrious predecessor.
The wait for a performance tweak is over, as just arrived in the UK is Yoshimura’s new ST-1 camshaft set. When used in conjunction with Yoshimura’s JMCA 4-2-1-2 full exhaust system, and without any fuel injection adjustment, peak horsepower with the cams fitted is 175bhp – 3bhp over the same set up with stock cams. Torque output is also improved at higher rpm.
The addition of a race-style open exhaust plus tailored fuel mapping will obviously give considerable gains over stock.
The Yoshimura camshaft set costs £1103.76 inc VAT (per set intake/exhaust) and is available at your nearest Phoenix NW UK dealer. For more information on this or any other Yoshimura product, contact 01782 569800 or visit www.phoenixnw.co.uk to find your nearest Yoshimura Performance Centre.
