I talked to Carl's and they told me their '08-'10 IQr 600 to 800 BB conversion just takes Dragon cylinders and slight case mods as well as needing a modified 800 pipe to fit. They said the 860 uses their aftermarket cylinders.
So what does it take for us DIYers to do this conversion?
How in depth is the case work? Is there any mandatory cylinder mods? What piston options are there? I've heard we can only get single(?) ring pistons which are of poor design. What's required for heads? Does anyone sell a similar kit for less? Carl's wants approx. $2k and $4 respectively. I would think we should be able to half those prices. Fill me in on what you know, please. :smile:
