I love my XS, and want to keep riding and tuning it for a long time. But I'm not a fan of the vibrations. I know it's an old bike and some say it's part of its character. But it not fun for taking the bike on a holiday. My engine has been checked and I need to get the crank rebuild. If I want to change the firing order, now would be the time.
I've red many posts on the 277° rephase, but I would like to know if it's worth the money (you need to spend in 2024) in order to reduce vibrations. I'm not looking for more power here.
The thing that is making me second guess the conversion is the price of the new camshaft and ignition. And the fact I just got a 360° vape ignition 2 years ago. Do love their product.
Cam would be €500
Vape 277° ignition is currently €815 ( they have increased their prices massively...)
Total €1315 for vibration reduction, But how much?
What's your experience with the rephase? Would you recommend it for reducing the vibes?
