About to start the tuning process on the Xf, got all the items from Jets R Us and it only took about 3 days from Mo to Fl shipping. The 16T counter shaft sprocket, jets a 35 and 125, 127.5 mains, so we'll see what combination works best. So far the bike is stock with the needle clip in the 4th position and running an E3 plug. I'm trying to research the Hotcams Drz 125 stage 1 cam, just wait for them to return some emails about some specs. will add some more pictures as it goes[/img]

Hotcams Drz 125 stage 1 cam.

Interesting. That's a new one on us but I bet it could make a big difference.

There is a guy on supermotojunkie that did some cam changing on the XF200.

Interesting.

I bet the 'extra' camshaft gear on the Q/Suzuki camshaft goes back to the days when Suzuki used to drive the tach off a cable hooked up to the camshaft. With the electronic tachs nowadays it is vestigal, like an appendix.

No need to.

I did it all for you right here

Let me know if you have any questions.

Holy cow..... Looks like we're all ordering the same stuff! 8O

The cam thing is interesting, for sure.

suprf1y · 03-25-2011, 05:05 PM

Is it possible to get these bikes in Canada anymore?

FastDoc · 03-25-2011, 05:20 PM

You bet. In Canada it's called a Konker.
Do the Chinese know how to name stuff or what? :wink:

RageHardIntoTheBendies · 03-25-2011, 05:24 PM

Yea they go for around $3000 up here.

suprf1y · 03-25-2011, 05:29 PM

I found their corporate site, but none of their listed dealers show any Konker bikes :roll:
It looks like $3k listed price. IMO, that's a little much.

Be cheaper to buy in in WA for $1,600US and ride it North, unless it's not that easy...

RageHardIntoTheBendies · 03-25-2011, 05:50 PM

For BC youd have to pay HST (ugh) and duty but it would still be cheaper. Dont know if the QLink could be registered here though, thought about buying one used and tranferring some of the parts to my Saga

Hey brothers, let's form an underground chinabike railroad so everyone can enjoy what they deserve. A good riding time!

Ya, that was a little weak, didn't put enough thought into it, sorry about that.

I *think* you'd have to pay duty and GST, not HST. The reason is that the border guards are feds, not provincial. Put another way, if you were an Alberta resident crossing into BC from WA, you would not be expected to pay BC's HST.

Dang. Went to 4 sites looking for info on this stage 1 cam, including hotcams. Wouldn't show up for a Suzuki.
Anyone got a link?
