The cbr1100xx Blackbird

The original super slick Honda powerhouse. When I first dynoed one, I stopped at 7000 rpm because, for some reason it was already making a 100 True hp.
 I had to recheck the dyno calibration before I believed it. Fully calibrated 5 minutes later (I love the EC997 dyno.....) It was still 100 True HP!
Woohoo!

The original "Full Race Lincoln Continental" and  my favorite sport tourer....

Note!!!
The RTR-HON-8 series advance rotors DO NOT include a side cover gasket that fits the XX!!! The kit only includes the cbr600/900 gasket and it's different!!

ADJUSTABLE advancer
The patented RTR-ADJ-HON-008 will let you adjust the ignition timing in very accurate 1 degree increments. ZERO chance of slipping adjustment or loosing setscrews!

Factory Pro's exclusive
Shift STAR kit

Imagine

Last lap, last corner, 110 mph, two wheel drift... passing on the outside, bike carefully controlled by just the subtlest of weight transfer and just a "fingers touch" on the throttle... you run out of rpm and need to upshift to complete the pass.... you need to shift.... it's ok.... a tap and you are in the 4th, still in a drift....... you keep slightly pulling... around.... slowly past....
you win. 

OK - So, maybe you don't drive your XX like the above, but - if you wanted the sweetest shifting bike, ever - this is the kit that takes away in-town "clunk" and really lets the bike "snick" sweetly into every up or down shift - This IS the mod that you want.

EVO-7 Shift STAR Kit!
Includes Factory's AWESOME Detent Star - Totally changes the rough shifting the Kaw 6's are known for into the sweetest shifting Kaw - The one you've always wanted!
Includes: Factory Pro designed, refined and manufactured DETENT STAR, Factory Pro Microbearing Detent Arm, heavy duty detent spring and gasket. Makes shifting quicker and more positive - "virtually" eliminating those nasty missed shifts. The stronger detent spring rotates the shift drum quicker, so the gears are more likely to engage under quick shift conditions - and "lazy" ones, too -
The Factory Pro Microbearing removes friction for the quickest shifting.
The closest to a "paddle shifter" for a motorcycle that you will ever find!!

Hey Marc,
That's pretty cool, thanks. BTW, I fitted the jet and 4 degree advancer on Saturday, used all the specs on the instruction sheet, however, I found the stock jets fitted to my 'bird (Aussie version), were 145's on the outside and 150's for the inside two, no major dramas though, looking at your specs I see you're tuning at ~2500ft, I live and ride mostly at close to sea level and up to maybe 1000ft, with your 142 reference main jets suited to ~2500ft I decided to fit the supplied 145's and use #3 position on the needles, 2 3/4 on the fuel screws, I did a carb synch whilst I was at it and got them all within 5mmHg, it was spot on first up, no more flat spot and throttle response was crisp as, do you have any thoughts?

Thank you. Now I have trouble keeping the front end down in the first two gears when doing a 1/4 mile blast at my local drag strip....;-))

Cheers, and all the best from down under

Dear Sir or madam,

        I'd just like to say thank you for your great service, I ordered some parts from you to be delivered to Sydney Australia, they turned up this morning delivered to my door less than a week later, I wish I could get that sort of service from all of my local suppliers.

Once again, thank you.

Cheers and all the best from down under.

I recently purchased a Factory Jet Kit for my Honda Blackbird (carbureted).
Can you please tell me your recommendations on the best settings if I'm after maximum power.
Don't really care if my fuel consumption goes up.
Thanks.

Hi Robby -
Best Power is where the bike should be jetted.
Mileage will be pretty good if you also have Best Power.
If mileage is 20% worse, it's not properly tuned to Best Power. It's too rich.
See! :-) The real answer is that there's not a big difference between Best Power and Best mileage!

re: CRB-H75-1.0 carb recalibration kit and RTR-HON=8=02  +2 advance kit.

Thanks, Marc for your kit for the XX. The install was simple and what a relief to not have to drill out the slides AKA dynojet install.

The performance improvement has shocked me, especially since the exhaust and air filter remain stock. Based on my initial results, I am nixing plans to change the exhaust system (noise preference) since I already have a hard
time hanging on under WOT.

I followed the recommended specs exactly, changing the outside jets to 142, and leaving the inside mains at 142, and setting the needles to the second slot from the top. I then seated the pilots and backed each out the recommended 2 1/2 turns, and reassembled.

Have you ever dynoed this configuration (stock pipe, air and kits) - and what was the delta? We do not have the Eddy here, only the dynojet deceiver.

P.S. the gasket that came with the ignition advance did not fit. I used Hi-Temp RTV copper successfully, tho.

Note: The supplied gasket is for the cbr600/900. You need to supply your own XX gasket. Cheers! Marc
