Weisco 810

Post by Biggs »

Can the 810 kit be installed without any other changes?
Is it plug and play or will there need adjustments elsewhere?

I'm very familiar with the standard gpz 750
But fuel injection and turbos are all new for me

Yes you can do the 810 with out changing studs/nuts etc. If your riding hard with higher boost we usually install APE stud/nut kit with updated base gasket (metel/rubber laminate) and factory head gasket opened up to 810 :thumbup

Ok that's good info , left the studs out of the equation
Yes next will be boost and other performance upgrades

I've seen the factory tin base gaskets with rubber outlines,is that what your referring to ?

And head gasket, use the stock multi layer and simply
Open it up to 69mm ? rather than use the supplied weisco head gasket

I looked long and hard at the head gaskets for my 810.
In my opinion the OEM MLS is a good option, it even withstood being torqued down twice, having to remove the head to recheck something. It's done a couple thousand miles now without any problems.
It took some effort opening the size out. I made a wooden clamping jig with holes for the bores to support the gasket whilst I dremelled it. This enabled me to close the layers slightly, therefore preventing excessive grinding dust getting between them. Another thing to be careful of is burrs and thin swarfs, I carefully removed these once I'd sized the openings.
Took about 2 or 3 hours but it was worth it.
Good luck :thumbup

Your still better off splitting the head gasket after you have the right size and clean it up then reassemble just use a suitable punch your see were you need to put the punch. But very gently.

C8012 CFM-20 69mm/810 gasket is the gasket I used from Cosmetic. Had zero problems.
